It wasn't even a story....just a quote....I need to stop....I have been up for too long writing about The Great Gatsby....I hate that book....I wonder if cardboard vutout Adam could do my homework for me....meh, it's Friday! YAY! FRIDAY!!!! *stumbles away mumbling to herself*

Oh Lily! I wasn't talking about you! I liked your reasons for loving Adam. It cracked me up! I got cheesy from CatDubh original post. Sorry if I hurt your feelings, I really didn't mean to.

I could have liked this book but for two reasons:
1. My 10th grade teacher (thoe one who taight it to me, we're reciewing now for the tests so we're making a class set of "cliff's notes") was an elderly IDIOT.

On second thought, I don't want to tell you the second reason...

No you don't Lilly...TELL US!

Please?

And the time will come when you see we're all one
And life flows on within you and without you.

I love Adams speaking voice on that Passengers track 'Your Blue Room' with that vibratory bass (line). If only it was his words or mine? I'm not creative today, sorry.

EXCERPT:
The air is clean
Your skin is clear
I've had enough fun hanging 'round here
It's a different kind of conversation
Your blue room

Saw me coming
In outside
Saw me coming
Somewhere I can hide

And time is a string of pearls...your blue room
(I'm a swinger)
See the future just hanging there...your blue room
A new frame, a new perspective
Looking down on my objectives
Your instructions whatever their directions
Your blue room

Saw me coming
East by the moon
Saw me coming
Can you feel

Awwww....I wasn't upset at all. That's why I posted about why I let myself post in stream-of-conscious format...I still don't know why I do that...'cos I do it a lot. Nuttin' but warm fuzzies for ya!

hippy: I will grant your wish, but it's nothing good at all.

It involved someone who was manipulating me quite well. He would use the book allegorically and that would be the only certain way I knew what he meant. He was a few years older than me so I didn't know better...but when I finished the book, I realized that he was Gatsby and I was Daisy and I didn't want to be. So yea, there's the story.

"The Legend of Adam Clayton" (to the tune of Running to Stand Still)

And so she woke up, woke with Adam next to her ... lying still
Said "I ... just can't get over ... his skill at lovin' "
Adam woke up then
Fin-er than a thousand men, baby
Reached out to caress her ... in the light

Singing ha, ha la-la laaa de da-ay
Haaaa la la laaaa-de-day
Ha la laa-de day

Sweet was his touch
stronger the fire ... in her eyes
He knows that she wants him
But he only smiles ... at her cries

He's got to leave while she's needing
Begging and pleading
Moaning and bidding him stay

He knows there's other women
And all wo-men know
That it's heaven ... when he's near

Singing ha, ha la-la laaa de da-ay
Haaaa la la laaaa-de-day
Ha la laa-de day

("Hmmmmmm-mmmmmmmm" noises begin, percussion picks up more aggressively)

He struts with his bass
--So the legends all said--
Under a bright dazzle of sunlight and fame
Women observe him --
All cry out:
"Adam, so fine!
Set my body free!"--
He is *play*-ing (bum-ba-da-bum)
He is *play*-ing (bum-ba-da-bum)
And a storm blows up in their loins, they will ...
Never receive their fill;
His touch will make time stand . . . still

HAAAAAAAAAA! That's freaking GREAT!!!! I think my favorite lines are "he is playing (bum-ba-da-bum)/he his playing (bum-ba-da-bum)" and "But he only SMILES at her cries." So very Adam

Hey, you should post this in the basterdized songs thread!

LOL! Thanks, Gina. I was beginning to think maybe I had posted this in "stealth" mode, in which the post shows up in special invisible type that only I can see.

But I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I enjoyed it as well! I was just in awe of your creativity and didn't want to ruin the moment. lol! I really liked it though; I'm no good at basterdizing songs.

 

[Mirrorball Girl]

LOL, thanks guys.

Wow, the big day is almost here!

Adam needs to get ready for his birthday spankings.

"It never ceases to amaze me. Here, we have a man who claims professes to enjoy flower arranging, has no qualms over donning a skirt at any given time and, now we learn, prefers to use the ladies' restroom. And yet somehow he manages to embody all that is masculine and sexy. I don't know how he does it. " ~Hallelujah Here She Comes, about Adam
