When I read all this talk about James - Sit down, I think of er what's it called.... oh yeah They might be giants, Build birdhouse in your soul.... not to put to fine a point on it.. la la
Here you go, and a one, C, 4:
Im your only friend
Im not your only friend
But Im a little glowing friend
But really Im not actually your friend
But I am
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
I have a secret to tell
From my electrical well
Its a simple message and Im leaving out the whistles and bells
So the room must listen to me
Filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary one note* spelled l-i-t-e
My storys infinite
Like the longines symphonette it doesnt rest
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Im your only friend
Im not your only friend
But Im a little glowing friend
But really Im not actually your friend
But I am
Theres a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though I respect that a lot
Id be fired if that were my job
After killing jason off and countless screaming argonauts
Bluebird of friendliness
Like guardian angels its always near
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
(and while youre at it
Keep the nightlight on inside the
Birdhouse in your soul)
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while youre at it)
Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)
Make a little birdhouse in your soul (birdhouse in your soul)
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while youre at it)
Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)
Make a little birdhouse in your soul (birdhouse in your soul)
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Enjoyed their stuff for a while until I heard the rumour, no idea whether it was true, that 'James' sold more t-shirts than albums, due to the idiot UK student population obsession with looking trendy.

And you believe that do you?
Originally posted by Devlin View PostThere are some studies that suggest that happiness and contentment is almost inversely proportional to income. Not so sure about relationship to wealth though.
The general jist of them is that once you are earning a bit more than is required for essentials the enjoyment of earning more above this is outweighed by the stresses placed on work/life balance.
Rich but unhappy
It's no wonder NoisomeLiars manage to get elected with such nonsense being allowed to flourish.

Learning to be content is the key to happiness.

Makes sense really, there's much more of a presenteeism culture in the UK.
