HEY DJ!!! This blog's for you.

Seems like most of my blogs have a musical theme to them. I seriously feel like I might be the only person who actually lives in a musical! I heard this All American Reject song on the radio this morning as I was driving to work. I liked this song when it first came out in 2008 but man it really struck a chord with me today. I was totally jammin and I didn't care who was looking!!  It totally sums up where Im at right now with DJ.

Most all of the lyrics fit perfectly (Note the yellow highlight) but some of the lyrics were as though I had once been in the band AAR and helped write this song mysef!! (red font). Some things are not highlighted just because its a repeat in the song or it just doesn't apply 100%. And just for fun my thoughts are in blue. The one thing I took a little artistic liberty with was changing the gender when appropriate (noted in paranthesis) although he practically is a woman anyways.



GIVES YOU HELL-All American Rejects


I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place
And you're still prob'ly working
At a nine-to-five pace
I wonder how bad that tastes
(He was “self-employed” and didn’t work 9-5. He didn’t bring home 1 penny so the above lines dont apply to him)
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell

Hope it gives you hell

When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell

Hope it gives you hell
(when you see my face IN COURT hope it gives you hell!!)
Now where's your picket fence, love?
And where's that shiny car?
And did it ever get you far?
And you never seemed so tense, love
I've never seen you fall so hard
Do you know where you are?
(The picket fence is mine, the shiny car was more important to him than me or Skye were to him. Mr. National Merit Scholar with big dreams never went anywhere but Harrah and wont ever be good enough for Edmond even)

And truth be told, I miss you -miss you
And truth be told, I'm lyin'
(yeah- I definitely DON’T miss him!!)

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell

If you find a (girl) that's worth a damn
And treats you well
Then (s)he's a fool, you're just as well
Hope it gives you hell

I hope it gives you hell
(Im hoping once he finds a girl he’ll leave us alone. More power to them!!)

Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself
Yeah, "where'd it all go wrong?"
But the list goes on and on
(In his mind he’s faultless but I cant stop numbering all the things he did to me, Skye and the rest of my family.)

But truth be told, I miss you -miss you
And truth be told, I'm lyin'

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a (girl) that's worth a damn
And treats you well
Then (s)he's a fool, you're just as well
I hope it gives you hell

Now you'll never see
What you've done to me
You can take back your memories
They're no good to me
And here's all your lies
You can look me in the eyes
With the sad, sad look
That you wear so well

(Yep-I’ll never let him see me struggle- Not that I am. Yep- He can definitely take back the few good memories we had together-O wait! I think he already did when he took back what little he did give to me the day he left! Sooooo many lies!! OMG! Can this stanza be any more perfect?!?! He would try this pathetic puppy dog look when he wanted something. All I could think to myself was how feminine he looked. I was disgusted by his sad, sad, look.)
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you find a (girl) that's worth a damn
And treats you well
Then (s)he's a fool, you're just as well
I hope it gives you hell

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song and you sing along
But you never tell
But you never tell
Then you're a fool, I'm just as well
I hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
(Pretty straight forward)
When you hear this song
I hope that it will give you hell
Hope it gives you hell
You can sing along
I hope that it puts you through hell

And if the song doesn't, my lawyer will!!
