about

From an email I sent to a friend of mine in 2011:

I met a gal last night at a bar in Winooski, Vermont – 40 year old PR rep from Manhattan who came into town ’cause she needed to recharge her batteries, get away for awhile, get her groove back, etc. Ran into her again tonight at the same bar and she was dancing her ass off, at a bar which – according to the bartender – does not usually have any dancing, especially on a Monday night.

lyrics

i had to get away
the pressure got to me
needed to leave town for awhile
recharge the batteries

this weekend’s just the start
i took the whole week off
i’ll stick around if i need more time or if
i’m having too much fun

they said it was too much to handle
they’re only right for now
i will prove those bastards wrong

a little R and R
spend a day in bed
but if there’s a bar nearby i might
go do that instead

buy a couple rounds
make the jukebox mine
chat up the bartender and
flirt with a couple guys

and i’d dance because it’d be
what i’d want to do
and i’d tell the patrons that they
should be dancing too
some will say it’s futile
to get the drunks off their stools
i will prove those bastards wrong
