Lots of you have been complaining that you can't decipher the lyrics to What I Get Paid For. Well, while we don't have anything official, we're willing to make asses of ourselves and post what _we_ think they are. Oh, this is Lindsey and Anna, by the way-- we haven't posted in awhile, so I hope you still remember us. Anyway, here are the lyrics as we hear them: Okay I get it It just took me a minute But you said it all at the get-go And I guess I've improved, 'cause my usual move would be to prove it right down on the floor With my heart on my sleeve, I'll get even no doubt That's what I get paid for Start at the beginning, keep grinning and shout That's what I get paid for Getting up dizzy, it's okay to give up* Why kid yourself, you were gunning for glory All attitude and honesty But when you wind down to zero, there's things you won't face And the buzzers** start screaming With your heart on your sleeve, you'll get even no doubt That's what you get paid for Start at the beginning, keep grinning and shout That's what you get paid for Just getting up dizzy, it's okay to give up* That's what you get paid for You're losing your head With my heart on my sleeve, I'll get even no doubt That's what I get paid for Start at the beginning, keep grinning and shout That's what I get paid for Getting up dizzy, it's okay to give up* That's what I get paid for I'm losing my head * this could be "out" ** we think this might be "buzzards", but it sounds more like buzzers Well, there you go. Probably wrong. Anyone else have ideas???? Oh, another thing-- I don't know if we've mentioned this before, but we live near Seattle, so we're going to the Bumbershoot Festival of arts and music tomorrow to see Shawn!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone else going? I think Anna's sixth grade teacher is going (interesting-- she's her neighbor, too). Well, that's enough for now, I suppose. We'll be sure to post a review of the concert (if we can get in-- fingers crossed) We're gonna try out that True Believer thing too =3D) Anna the mad hamster :) Lindsey of no title other than Witch Francesca-- but that's another thing all together Lindsey typed this Anna is now jumping in for 5 seconds glory Ha, Lindsey took it back. I'm gonna send this before it gets too long..... =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3DEND REPOST=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo@smoe.org with 'unsub scribe small-repairs' in the message body.
