ANYHOW

Anyhow Was just thinkin’ Which is not recommended On rainy cold spring days The pollen count is down But who cares Its too cold and wet to go outside Dammit, the heat just kicked on The friggin’ gas company Wants to know why I use so much gas We live in New England Summer don’t start till June And ends in late August The ocean water is so cold The dolphins don’t beach themselves They sun bathe on the rocks It was so chilly out today I saw a squirrel with his hands in his pockets Looking for its nuts My windshield wiper blades Dance across the glass like an old guy with one crutch On days like this I play News Tennis Y’know…switch back and forth Between the Left and Right “news” people Damn it’s hilarious Like watching Pee Wee Herman’s “I KNOW YOU ARE, BUT WHAT AM I” silliness Well, gotta go….Trump’s on TV again I believe the cabinet is trying to figure out How to get him in a basement for few days. Well, coffee cup’s empty Gotta go….really

LOL!! "I saw a squirrel with his hands in his pockets Looking for its nuts" Those two lines (among many here) are classic. This flows so well and I like the 'randomness' of it all. Cheers - Gary

This strikes me as an 'Americana version' of the Beatles' 'A Day in the Life' from the 60's --- although they didn't bother watching Harold MacMillan or Queenie E. on TV -- both of whom they easily outearned. lol.
