The fabulous Dixie Chicks

The fabulous Dixie Chicks

As many of the long suffering friends will testify, I am a big music fan, although the definition of music is quite flexible in this instance ;) I have also discovered this whole lyrics malarky. Its been a real eye opener. For example, the boy bands all sound quite similar when you listen to their lyrics. I won't even try and listen to any of the eurovision lyrics because there's no point. I have always loved the Dixie Chicks and their latest album is fab. This song, in response to the complelty OTT reaction to their criticism of George Bush is just great.

Not Ready to Make Nice

Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting

I'm through, with doubt,
There's nothing left for me to figure out,
I've paid a price, and i'll keep paying

I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell
And I don't have time
To go round and round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
Cause I'm mad as hell
Can't bring myself to do what it is
You think I should

I know you said
Why can't you just get over it,
It turned my whole world around
and i kind of like it

I made by bed, and I sleep like a baby,
With no regrets and I don't mind saying,
It's a sad sad story
That a mother will teach her daughter
that she ought to hate a perfect stranger.
And how in the world
Can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they'd write me a letter
Saying that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell
And I don't have time
To go round and round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
Cause I'm mad as hell
Can't bring myself to do what it is
You think I should

I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell
And I don't have time
To go round and round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
Cause I'm mad as hell
Can't bring myself to do what it is
You think I should

Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting

If you haven't heard it



Powerful stuff, I'm watching their website all the time in case they decide on another world tour and come to Ireland. They are one act I would not want to miss. The last time they were here I wasn't really into them. Tired just does not cover my current state. The kid commented on the state of me when I came in last night, and before you think it, I wasn't hoping off walls tiddly. I was strangely sober, it was one of those nights that was quite sobering. I feel emotionally and physically exhuasted. Then again I am PMTing..Someone throw chocolate at me for the love of god.
Just a small bar, I can't manange much more. Mammy2 was joking last night that she was going to get me an easter egg but they were all too big so I told her that a kinder egg would do just fine. Its titch sized and probably all I could manage. Speaking of easter eggs, there was loads around on Monday evening and its as if the Easter bunny raided
every single shop in town. There's not an egg left in the city. Thankfullly Mammy2 got the kids when she was doing the grocery shopping yesterday. I still have to get Mammy2's. She claims she doesn't want one but how could you not want an Easter egg, espeically if you're one of those chocolate fans? Seriously, it makes no sense!

The kid made me look at various pictures from her gig on Saturday night. She was able to put names to the hair with guitar doing some sort of strange dance. Moshing I believed she called it. Its funny because in various pics of the crowd, you can see her red hair standing out a mile. The boyf is up today, she chanced her arm yesterday by asking if he could stay over. She knows him all of 2 weeks. Teenagers. They're such chancers.
