everybody walk....
ok.... you gotta listen to the music.... music is the sound of salvation.... at least that is what elvis costello tells us.... actually.... he says it is the radio.... that will save our souls.... (1) but eye say patayto.... he says potahto....
so.... fitz and the tantrums are telling us all to walk.... no.... not just me.... everybody.... (2) so.... lets listen to fitz.... maybe he is not just a poet.... maybe.... he is full of all kinds of wisdom.... about physical health....
yes yes yes.... eye am the walker.... eye am the first.... and.... eye am stuck with that arduous task.... of showing all of you.... THE WAY.... just kidding.... eye am enjoying it.... sometimes.... eye am enjoying.... showing all of you the way....
with a little help from music.... with a little help from my friends.... still waiting on my friends.... with a little help from the lyrics.... eye am showing you the way.... am eye the way.... or.... is music the way.... hmmm....
so.... are you looking for evidence.... are you looking for proof.... that eye am showing you the way....
how about this.... the other day.... eye went to the doctor.... and my blood pressure.... was one hundred over sixty.... pretty fucking good for a sixty year old.... who does not do any intense physical exercise.... what do you think.... proof.... just a little bit of proof.... maybe.... stay tuned.... eye think this is only the beginning.... give me time.... be patient.... and you might just find.... the way.... the new way....
all of you people who hate exercising.... be patient.... eye think that we are going to call WORKing out.... something else.... because right now.... it is the only job.... the only work.... that you do not get paid for.... maybe one day.... we will say.... welcome to the FUNhouse.... instead of the gym....
imagine.... again.... not the john lennon kind of imagine.... why do all of those god damn democrats have to hijack all of the good words.... obama.... and.... hope.... god damn did he ruin the meaning of that word.... and kamala.... and root cause.... eye am gonna focus on the root cause of the immigration problem.... what does that mean kamala.... does that mean.... ignore the problem exists.... that is what it seems like you are doing.... root cause my ass.... stop stealing all of the best words democrats.... and then lennon.... and imagine.... come on lennon.... do you really think we can have a world without possessions.... the world you are talking about.... is even more boring than the world jesus would bring us.... sorry folks.... another one of my little sidetracks.... once again... back to the issue at hand....
imagine.... a world where you enjoyed doing things that made you healthy.... the activities that you want to do.... that you look forward to doing.... are the activities.... that make you healthy.... and the food.... the food that you enjoy.... is actually the food.... that makes you healthy.... imagine.... that is the kind of world that eye am asking you to imagine.... and.... that is just the beginning....
can eye steal all of those words.... excuse me.... can eye repossess those words.... they were mine in the first place.... can eye take back.... hope.... and root cause.... and imagine.... will you let those words be mine again.... instead of the democrats....
