Okay Okay Okay…

…I PROMISE, My Peeps, There Is A VERY Good Reason For Singling-Out This Song.

And YES, It Does Make Me Smile A Bundle When I Think About It.

I Was Already In The Navy When This Song…

WASTING TIME

by KID ROCK

…Was Released.

I Actually Didn’t Hear It At All Until I Came Home On Leave During The Winter Of 1998.

By Then, My Best Friend Had A Copy.

And He’s Why This Song Makes Me Smile.

You See…

…We Changed The Words.

My BFF’s Nickname Is KOJAK.

So…

…Every Single Time KID ROCK Would Use His Name In A Song…

…We’d Say KOJAK, Instead.

…Puffin’ A Winston…

…Drinkin’ A Four-O…

KOJAK

…And I’mm’a Let You Know…

πŸ˜€

(hahahahahaha)

And It Wasn’t Just This Song.

We Did It With EVERY Song KID ROCK Sang…

…Since We Had To Find A Real Reason To Justify Listening To His Music In The First Place.

Trust Me, My Peeps…

…It Was Entirely Justified With That Minor Lyrical Change…

…As It Made Us Laugh So SO HARD.

(hehehehehehe)

We’d Be Drivin’ Around…

…Hangin Out…

…Chillin’ As Much As Possible During My Brief Visits…

…Laughing So Hard It Was Nearly Insane.

πŸ˜‰

Am I A True Fan Of KID ROCK?

No.

Not Really.

BUT…

…When A Song Of His Pops On…

…Do I Change The Station?

Do I Tell Someone Else To Change The Station?

Nope AND Nope.

Why?

Because I Sincerely Can’t Wait Until KID ROCK Says KID ROCK In Whichever Song It Is That’s Playing.

It Reminds Me Of A Much More Carefree Time In My Life…

…And In The Lives Of My Closest Friends.

It’s Mainly An Inside Joke, Fo SHO, But Those Are Generally The BEST Jokes.

.PERIOD.

TELLING A Joke To Someone Is One Thing.

SHARING A Joke With Your Best Friends Is Another.

I Suck At TELLING Jokes.

Always Have.

It’s Not My Thing.

But I Get So Much Joy Out Of SHARING A Joke With Those I’m Closest To.

Don’t You???

EXACTLY!!!

Most Likely…

…You Do!!!

And THAT Is WHY This Song…

WASTING TIME

by KID ROCK

…Makes Me Smile So Very VERY Much!
