Why Get Up

 Why Get Up

I don't know about you, but I've had days, weeks and sometimes months where my life was so bad that I didn't want to get up out of bed. In my opinion the song below says how I felt:

"Why Get Up"  By The Fabulous Thunderbirds

Why get up, why get up
How can I get up, why should I get up
This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
I'm gonna sleep forever why get up

Phone keeps ringing right off the hook
Some bill collector, I know what cooks
Think I'll stay in bed, dream all day
World outside bugs me anyway
When I get things going, the going gets rough
So I ask myself why get up

Went to the doctor, he said lose some weight
If you don't do it quick, we'll have to operate
I talked to my lawyer, he said case is closed
That woman got it all even the garden hose
Staring at the ceiling thinking just my luck
Better roll back over why get up

Well, I can't quit drinking, I'm nervous all the time
When I wake up, it's like a ton lead on my mind
What was it, I said to that girl last night
She really got upset, I best stay out of sight
I remember a gun and calling somebody's bluff
I better duck under the cover why get up

Fortunately, my life is much better now. However, some of you wake up in the morning and think 

"Why Get Up"

Life is tough sometimes and life is great sometimes. If the balance is 70 - 30 than 

"Why Get Up"

If the balance is 30 - 70 than get the hell up and face the new day. Even if it's 50 - 50 life today is good and the effort. 

Remember, you're in control of your happiness. Lying in bed or not wanting to face the world will never get you to happiness. Sooo, get the hell up and make the changes that will be necessary to never say to yourself:
