i will sleep on this bed i have made for myself

had too much sun and bbq oh and beer the other night, and said somethings to the one i love that i shouldn't have.

we have since kissed and made up.

but it sparked the idea for a song...............uno when you really cross the line........ you make your bed.............

well i bit my lip and tasted blood in my mouth
and i held my breath and let a silent scream out
so you couldn't hear what i was really thinking
sometimes it's best to keep your thoughts to yourself
but i spat the phlegm out from the depths of my lungs
till all the black and tar there came pouring out
in all directions and taking no prisoners
sometimes it's best to keep your thoughts to yourself
once something is said it cannot be unsaid
what's done is done and cannot be undone
i will sleep on this bed i have made for myself
if i hang my head in shame
and just stay out your way
will you forgive me
if i take back all i said
and just pretend that i don't care
will you forgive me
once something is said it cannot be unsaid
what's done is done and cannot be undone
i will sleep on this bed i have made for myself

"What's done is done and cannot be undone."

Sort of like how I can't unsee that photo.

But I'm happy you kissed and made up.

Cool song! I love the keyboard sound. It reminds me of Van der Graaf Generator.

Great lyrics too.

That's a huge pool in the photo. I don't think I've ever seen an inflatable pool that size before.

my wife bought it and said to me ....i quote "i got a paddling pool it comes with a pump and everything can you put it up for the kids."

it wasn't a paddling pool. it was a fecking 10 foot pool, and it didn't have a pump, it was actually a pool filter for keeping the water clean. it took 5 hours to fill. i emptied it today to put fresh water in, and nearly caused a landslide behind my garden. it keeps yer beer cold tho.

No pump?! I don't envy you the job of blowing that thing up.

It took me a few moments to realize that you were talking about relative size and not expired kidney excretion (not that it's ever alive in the first place).

Is that a jacuzzi, James? I thought I saw bubbles...

Great song - we don't get many here featuring the mighty Wurlizter home organ.

Juno sounds very cool, and excellent vocal delivery. Your lyrics really ring true: I think nearly everybody has been there at one time or another. And the making up can be such a good remedy.
