I had a fall today. I was holding a packet of pecans and looking to see if they were beyond their expiration date. I took a step at the same time and completely lost my balance. Fortunately, there was a chair behind me so I was able to catch myself, but I injured my calf somehow.
My balance has been getting worse. I suppose bipedal locomotion requires my full attention now. Or maybe I should ask my GP for forearm crutches. Or maybe I should tie a cold lavender pack around my leg and have a nap.
What's Up?
Reworked lyrics for Spoonies
3 years of illness and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For rehabilitation.
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the NHS is made up of this
Brotherhood of shrinks
For whatever that means.
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I look
Outside and I take a deep breath
And I get real high
And I whisper with the top of my strength
What's goin' on?
And I think hey-yeah-yeah-yeah, hey yea yea
I say hey! what's goin' on
And I say hey-yeah-yea-eah, hey yea yea
I say hey! what's goin' on
Oooh, oo! ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Oo-ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooo
Oooh! ooo-aah-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Oo-ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooo Whats up?
And I try, oh my God do I try
I try all the time
In this situation
And I pray, oh my God do I pray
I pray every single day
For revolution
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I look
Outside and I take deep breath
And I get real high
And I whisper at the top of my strength
What's goin' on
And I say hey-yeah-yea-eah, hey yea yea
I say hey! what's goin' on
And I say hey-yeah-yea-eah, hey yea yea
I say hey! what's goin' on
And I say hey-yeah-yea-eah, hey yea yea
I say hey! what's goin' on
And I say hey-yeah-yea-eah, hey yea yea
I say hey! what's goin' on
Oooh, oo! ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Oo-ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooo-ahh-haa
3 years of illness and my life is still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For rehabilitation
Oo-ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooo
