Dedicated to you

Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth.
Only, i don't know how they got out, dear.
Turn me back into the pet that i was when we met.
I was happier then with no mind-set.

And if you'd 'a took to me like
A gull takes to the wind.
Well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree
And i'd a danced like the king of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

New slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries.
Hope it's right when you die, old and bony.
Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall,
Never should have called
But my head's to the wall and i'm lonely.

And if you'd 'a took to me like
A gull takes to the wind.
Well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree
And i'd a danced like the kind of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

God speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs,
And bleed into their buns 'till they melt away.

I'm looking in on the good life i might be doomed never to find.
Without a trust or flaming fields am i too dumb to refine?
And if you'd 'a took to me like
Well i'd a danced like the queen of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

Slow Show

Standing at the punch table swallowing punch
can’t pay attention to the sound of anyone
a little more stupid, a little more scared
every minute more unprepared

I made a mistake in my life today
everything I love gets lost in drawers
I want to start over, I want to be winning
way out of sync from the beginning

I wanna hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I’m very, very frightening
I’ll overdo it

Looking for somewhere to stand and stay
I leaned on the wall and the wall leaned away
Can I get a minute of not being nervous
and not thinking of my dick
My leg is sparkles, my leg is pins
I better get my shit together, better gather my shit in
You could drive a car through my head in five minutes
from one side of it to the other

I wanna hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I’m very, very frightening
I’ll overdo it

You know I dreamed about you
for twenty-nine years before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for
for twenty-nine years

You know I dreamed about you
for twenty-nine years before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for
for twenty-nine years

Some Bollywood notes

Mom got this new bollywood fever from my sister. Everytime she turns up in the room,I am forced to turn to channels like MTV, 9XM , Channel V etc. etc. at her behest. Meanwhile I cant help but notice that Bollywood songs are getting stupider than ever.
  • There are songs which keep on repeating some phonetically ugly words ,which I doubt even the actors involved understand. Theres "Nagada nagada nagada....and so on", "Marjaani marjaani. marjaani....something something" ;" Mauja hi mauja" etc etc.
  • Then theres this unbelievably lame song made out of "Jack and Jill went up the hill".
  • "Love mera hit hit" is so gross ..so gross...that you almost want to watch it again to appreciate how bad deepika padukone and shahrukh look in it.
  • Akshay Kumar looks awful as a surd.My hands automatically crawl towards my hair and start pulling them apart at the sight of all those surds dancing in "Singh is King".
  • Katrina Kaif amazes me how she has got so many fans among my friends. She looks total fake in all the acting or dancing acts I've seen her.
Though after about half an hour of pleading and hair pulling, and some other tactics that I employ,my mom allows me to change the channel by saying " Evn I didnt like these songs earlier.You have to listen again and again to get used to them."(I hope that time never comes.)

P.S: I absolutely love Sonam Kapoor's dance gigs in Delhi 6.
