Woke up this morning to the sound of the bell.
Where had the night gone? it seemed to abscond.
Another few seconds before my head cleared.
Twas time to get up and earn the bread.
Play my role in this ever changing world.
My head filled with the doom and gloom listening to the NEWS on the car radio as I went along.
What am I doing, is there no hope, changed the channel and listened to a song, which fired me up and changed my mood.
The power of music, oh without it where would we stand?
Reaches out to give you a hand, when all the world is going round driving you mad.
Guess a sad song can bring you down but nothing like the bad NEWS the radio sounds.
It goes on and on to make you feel afraid of life.
Am I alone with this point of view?
