	lo fi play (dial-up) hi fi play (broadband)	email track to a friend	add to My.MP3
	This is a song that was written primarily from a series of rants that a friend at work sent me via email.
	Story Behind the Song A friend of mine got into a real deep funk because her boyfriend left her and went overseas for the better part of a month. She sent me a lot of wierd stuff about men, women, relationships, and soccer over the email at work. I tried to do a twang and jangle thing a la Johnny Marr and the Smiths. Lyrics Switching on the World at Five In her post-traumatic daze She'll spend the rest of her life reflecting on what the psychiatrist says And she would live most anywhere Except the skin she's in right now With a dream and a wish for something better in her life somehow Something wondrous and beautiful like the poem that you read Or the sweetest boy she ever knew "I love you," he said And her faded star-crossed memories Turn to feelings quite sublime Sleepless sorrow, worry, woes Sorry boy, she'll get that way sometimes In her life Sometimes in her life. Was she too tomboy to love Or arouse the finer things? Was she split between the intellectual life and the passion beauty brings? It's enough to make her angry at all men for their desires She asked, "How can you be open-minded, and still act so uninspired?" But, "This shall pass," she says again Giving thanks for what she's got For his lips and his hands and heart were hers though his eyes were not As she plunges under once again in the fullness of her prime Weeping softly as she goes Heaven knows she'll get that way sometimes In her life Sometimes in her life.
