Lyric of the Day

I love Sublime. Their easy skanking sound and care-free attitudes make me happy. My boyfriend says it is because they are stoners. No lies there. I think this "care-free" attitude is perfectly reflected in this song which I have been playing on repeat in my car. I tend to do that, "kill" songs. Song Assassin, guilty-as-charged. Hey, if a song is rad, I can't help it. Right now, I need chilled music. I have had a cold for over 3 weeks, damn shitting sore throat won't leave my body. Please be gone demon sore throat. My last resort is a course of anti-biotics, to which I am opposed. I hate the meds. I am a hippie when it comes to medication and would rather dose myself with vitamins and herbal remedies for weeks before considering the option of destroying my body with chemicals (says the drunk). So I leave you with the song that has been my remedy for the last month or so. It says the things I have not been able to. As for weeks as I have not wanted to get out of bed... Ah Sublime, thanks for leaving me in a good mood. 


"...I don't wanna watch no porno
I don't wanna play guitar
I don't wanna spank the monkey
I don't wanna go down to the corner bar
And I ain't even got to listen 
To all the stupid shit you got to say
I don't wanna do a god damn thing
'Cause I ain't gonna leave my bed today

I don't wanna
I don't wanna leave my bed today

I don't wanna
I don't wanna leave my bed today

I don't wanna
I don't wanna leave my bed today

Keep on skankin' Ronnie
Skank the night away
But the time is coming
For us all to pay (pay)

I don't wanna eat burritos
Or read about OJ
No, I don't want to get a head rush 
'Cause I aint even gettin out of bed today..."
- Burritos by Sublime
