Musical Sunday

I recently saw a post on Facebook that read, "I’m not antisocial, I’m socially selective." Lately, I tend to be the same way, and it reminds me of this great song by Robbie Fulks ...

Here are the lyrics, for those of you who feel like singing along:

I like being left alone

I like chocolate pie, clear blue sky

And a glass of Côtes du Rhône

I like summer, I like fall

I like music, but most of all

I like being left alone

I'm talkin' about sales reps

Talkin' about the government

I'm talkin' about the children

I'm talkin' about you, you, you

My time is like a sweet plum

Everybody wants some

But I'd rather be lonesome

I'd rather be blue

And I like being left alone

Keeping well away from the P.D.A

The traffic and the telephone

I don't care how little, how much I earn

If I could get one thing in return - 

I just like being left alone

We don't have to sit and hold hands

You've already got the gold band

You say I'm talking like an old man

And maybe that's true

What's the harm to sit and think some

Add words of little wisdom

You can paint the town crimson

I'll just stay blue

And I like being left alone

I like chocolate pie, clear blue sky

And a glass of Côtes du Rhône

I like water and I like air

I like space, but not to share

I like being left alone

Yeah, I like summer, I like fall

But the thing that thrills me most of all - 

I like being left alone

Have a good day and enjoy the rest of your weekend. I hope everybody leaves you alone.

More thoughts coming.
