Ain't That Pretty at All - Warren Zevon

 

Well, I've seen all there is to see

And I've heard all they have to say

I've done everything I wanted to do . . .

I've done that too

And it ain't that pretty at all

Ain't that pretty at all

So I'm going to hurl myself against the wall

'Cause I'd rather feel bad than not feel anything at all

 

You know, I just had a short vacation, Roy

Spent it getting a root canal

"Oh, how'd you like it?"

Well, it ain't that pretty at all

So I'm going to hurl myself against the wall

'Cause I'd rather feel bad than not feel anything at all

 

Gonna get a good running start and throw myself at the wall as hard as I can man

 

I've been to Paris

And it ain't that pretty at all

I've been to Rome

Guess what?

I'd like to go back to Paris someday and visit the Louvre Museum

Get a good running start and hurl myself at the wall

Going to hurl myself against the wall

'Cause I'd rather feel bad than feel nothing at all

And it ain't that pretty at all

Ain't that pretty at all

There is a little exhibition downstairs in the atrium all week. And tonight the Minister (the DPM John Presscott) came round and talked to people.

 

Nice guy. Particularly since one of the people he talked to is one of my divisional colleagues who happens to be a transvestite (and yes it is obvious).

 

Also that some of the people I know were there and nominated.

I was in a car accident this morning. A woman pulling out of a fast food joint was looking right and not looking left and turned right into me.

Coupke of things in the Champions forum that people might want to act on.

 

First Lemming should be aware that there is someone posting there as 'TheRealLemming'.

 

Second someone is asking who the lamest character in comics was. And I detect an implication that Kyle was being referred to.

But definitely according to the posters Rom has been pinpointed. So if you disagree onto the Champs forum with you.

I have no idea why Geico hasn't gone out of business. Their policies don't seem to be geared toward making any money.

 

The adjuster called us up and told us he was declaring our car a total loss because the repairs will be more than the cost of the car. He will be issuing a check for the book value of the car. $10,000.

 

Repairing the car will cost $5000. I only paid $8000 for it, come to that.

 

So rather than lay out $5000 to fix our old car, they are paying twice that to buy us a new one.

 

I guess I just don't understand modern business sense.

My mother just sent me an e-mail wanting to know what I was doing up so late, and cautioning me not to get sick.

 

:confused:

 

She wasn't too concerned about my staying up close to midnight when I was staying under her roof and still a child. What the . . . ?

 

Every time I think I've figured that woman out . . .
