I have a coffee mug on my windowsill I got as a gift years ago. It says "Don't keep calm... be dramatic and drink coffee."

So I took inspiration from that and wrote this song in 20 minutes. After starting and stopping and laboring on about 15 different pieces in the past 10 years, I'm trying a hard reset and just writing a song and recording and posting it whether I think it's good or not. YAY FAWM!

Don't keep calm, oh no! don't play it safe, ya know. open the gate and stand back. It's not too late, sad sack.

Watch all the people go and lose their shit, you don't need to feel remotely bad about it, drink your coffee cold and black and be dramatic.

don't wear a suit to work. call your supervisor a jerk. microwave fish in the breakroom run for your car, vroom vroom.

Watch all the people go and lose their shit, you don't need to feel remotely bad about it, Eat your fish at a red light and be dramatic.

Chaos is a balm for your thoughts my friend, and frankly, I think you could use some, passive aggression can smooth out the blend cease and desisting the midlife numb....

be the smirk you wear be the whoopie cushion on a chair, let's skip work and get drinks on a patio that doesn't stink.

Watch all the people go and lose their shit, you don't need to feel remotely bad about it, they don't know they are the "why" the good ones quit, Be sure they wouldn't care if they were called on it,

enjoy your drink for a moment, you know you've earned it.
