We do the Laundry Tonight for FUN.



Give me a second I,
I need to get my laundry straight
My pile of cloths are rising up higher than the Empire State
So I get the machine running to finally come clean
‘Bout all the dirty laundry that I’ve been accumulating, and
I know I should’ve done this days ago
I know I’m trying to delay
But between the shorts and over coats,
The jeans that I own with holes, you know
I’m trying hard to do the task.
So if by the time the laundromat closes
And I feel like I’m not done
I’ll carry it back home

[Chorus] x2

Tonight
I’m not done
So I’ll go back to the laundry
Cos I was lazy, and it’s not FUN.

[Chorus] x2

Now I know that it’s not
All that I got
I guess that I, I just thought
Maybe I could wear these for ‘nother day
But the jeans can hold
For on-ly so long
Then I’ve got to go back to the mat

[Chorus] x2

Tonight
I thought I’m done
But I’ve got to back to the laundry
Cos I was lazy, and it’s not FUN.

[Chorus] x2

Go to the laundromat (Nananananana)
Do the laundry tonight (Nananananana)
Go to the laundromat (Nananananana)
Do the laundry tonight (Nananananana)

The moon is on my side (Nananananana)
I have a reason to run (Nananananana)
So will someone come and help me tonight (Nananananana)
The angel’s arrived (Nananananana)
She says she delivers (Nananananana)
So I’ve found someone to carry me home tonight (Nananananana)

[Chorus] x2

Tonight
I finally found someone
A friend to help me do the laundry
Cos I am lazy, but now it’s FUN.

[Chorus] x2

So if by the time the mat closes
And I am finally done
Can I take you out tonight?


*Imagine the laundromat being a place of bittersweet violence with dresses and bleach thrown around and people being banged into laundry machines

The Murder of Rose



She was a silent being. She was a whisper in the wind. 

She walked till she could walk no more. She sat and cried on the floor. She sobbed. She wept.

He came into her life. He pulled out the thorns on her side. He cared for her. He wept with her. He stood by her and watched her grow. He stood by her and pushed her for more.

He asked her things no man must. He asked her for complete trust. He was in her head. She was his puppet. She wanted the pain to go away. She wanted to be out of the pain he gave. 

She came to realize. She found him to be the thorn on her side. She cared for him. She wept for him. She stood by him and watched his rage. She stood by him before she pushed him away.

She walked till she could walk no more. She sat and cried on the floor. She sobbed. She wept.

She was a silent being. She was a whisper in the wind.

The Indian Lazybug


It is not my intention to court hate mails for stereotyping but human beings are lazy; this generation is progressively lazier than the one that came before. While I refuse to appease my conscience and elaborate on the previous statement, I will point out *poke poke* that this is a culmination of very stressful day where I had nothing better to do than start writing again. Two years ago I lost interest in writing stuff on my blog. It was not a personal reason. It was not because I had to deal with the Hazmat team I employed to clean my room. It was not even a valid reason. It was laziness. But why shouldn’t laziness be a valid reason to stop doing something?

Laziness is not a means to any end. If you think that laziness is a means to an end then you are mistaken and the word you are looking for is patience. It is either that or your end result is to get nothing done. Laziness is a virtue if anything. However, it still carries a negative connotation. People do not understand that while laziness is not a means to any productive end, it is a byproduct of various such means. I do not want to go vegetable shopping anymore not because I am guilty every time I pick up a potato only to eat it, but because I am lazy. No hurting potato feelings. No Holy Moly. Laziness is a valid reason. Deal with it B|

They say, necessity is the mother of invention. When the need arises to achieve a purpose human beings get innovative and creative. However, laziness is often the mother of necessity. I always liked to imagine that Charles Babbage created the difference engine because he was too lazy to do math. That is not the truth but it is how I like to think of it. 

You may ask, “But if one is lazy to do anything productive, isn’t that detrimental?” Why someone would do anything at all in the first place when they set out to not do something is surely a paradox of sorts someone has or has not thought about. Or maybe it is a paradox so meta that someone must have thought about but must have been too lazy to do anything about it. *mind==blown*

Well, that brings me to the Indian Somberi (Lazybug). To further prove my point, I will leave this here as food for thought.
