Musical Sunday


Since traveling has become so expensive as a result of the soaring gas prices caused by Der Furor's misbegotten Iran war, The Traveling Wiburys have announced they will be performing from home until further notice ... 


The full lyrics, for those who want them:

Been beat up and battered 'round
Been sent up, and I've been shot down
You're the best thing that I've ever found
Handle me with care
 
Reputation's changeable
Situation's tolerable
Baby, you're adorable
Handle me with care
 
I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care?
 
Everybody's got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on
 
I've been fobbed off, and I've been fooled
I've been robbed and ridiculed
In daycare centers and night schools
Handle me with care
 
Been stuck in airports, terrorized
Sent to meetings, hypnotized
Overexposed, commercialized
Handle me with care
 
I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care?
 
Everybody's got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on
 
I've been uptight and made a mess
But I'll clean it up myself, I guess
Oh, the sweet smell of success
Handle me with care

Go ahead and dream on. Have a good day and enjoy the rest of your weekend. More thoughts coming.
