give it up

i given up cigarettes and staying up late
its bad for the skin, the lungs and the health
and with the cost of living these days
its a matter of wealth
i given up speeding through traffic lights
i given up drinking and getting in fights

i given up drugs and all stimulants
they make me feel good but they fuck up my head
and then there's the vices
you take to your bed
i given up sex with strangers i meet for a night
i given up words that come back and bite

yeah give it up
give it up and be free
give it up
give it up for me

i given up the rock lifestyle
and given up the roll
its certainly not healthy they say
its bad for the soul
i given up playing my guitar up loud
i given up banging my drum in the crowd

mmm, its amazing what you right after you smoke a joint, rum in hand, thinking about the things ya should be doing, procrastinating about all the other stuff.
its been a strange day, i guess rain threatened and i was stuck, immobile, couldn't find anyone to play with, i had a coffee with sam but she was kinda 'resentful and angry' and there was a lot of residual hostility in her words, i just wanted to get close i guess but she was all female defenseive barriers and barbs out.
and that fucking accountant of mine, jeez, accountants are crap they just cream of the cash you earn becuase the tax system is so complex in australia people can't do it themselves they need accountants. fucking leeches, if i ever meet them socially i'll be telling them what i think of them so far.
other strange events, i saw basic instinct 2 which is much better than basic instinct 1, it's set in london, beautifully filmed and very atmospheric, even has a very smart story line.
mmm, well i get a chance to see jake tomorrow, so i'm looking forwards to that, but man, i need new friends.
