Muddy Melody

there's a song stuck in my head ba da da daaaahhh... not a lot, but a bit of a bar ba da da deeeee... spinning 'round my ears too near never able to get out of there, i fear it'll never set me free i can't hear it's lyrical words the band's name i'm unable to perceive just burnt bridges 'n' stanza's is all i got command a the whole song's impossible to retrieve i can't recall who sung it nor can i recall the composer's name* ba da da da - a few notes is all i seem to recall but it's stuck spinning just the same when i'm looooong gone and dead, i think i'd rather not hum instead that darn song 'll still be in my head to fill my afterlife with dread bedamned reincarnated melody retread oh, still that song stuck in my head it's too hard to make it out - or to believe © Goode Guy 2013-10-18 * After driving me crazy to the point of poetic composition, I auditorially searched my extensive Pat Metheny collection, since I suspected it was one of his, and finally came upon: Pat Metheny Group-2002-Speaking Of Now-08-Afternoon which is a very good song to get stuck in, if you've gotta get stuck
