“People Say I’m Crazy…
…Doing What I’m Doing…
…Well They Give Me All Kinds Of Warnings…
…To Save Me From Ruin…
…When I Say That I’m Okay…
…Well They Look At Me Kind Of Strange…
…Surely You’re Not Happy Now…
…You No Longer Play The Game…“

“People Say I’m Lazy…
…Dreaming My Life Away…
…Well They Give Me All Kinds Of Advice…
…Designed To Enlighten Me…
…Well I Tell Them That I’m Doing Fine…
…Watching Shadows On The Wall…
…Don’t You Miss The Big-Time, Boy…
…You’re No Longer On The Ball…“

I Went To Bed Around 1AM With This Song On My Mind.
You See…
…I Was Listening To My…
JOHN LENNON
…Greatest Hits Album Before Retiring For The Night…
…And This Song…
“WATCHING THE WHEELS“
…Got Stuck In My Head.
Now, I Know…
…This Isn’t A “THE SONG STUCK IN MY HEAD” Edition.
It Could Be…
…As The Song Is Very Much Stuck In There Right Now…
…But That’s Not What I’m Talking About.
I’m Talking About Being In A Good Mood BECAUSE Of Said Stuck Song.
“WATCHING THE WHEELS“
…Is One Of My All-Time Faves…
…And Exceptionally Worthy Of A Mentioning Here.
Any Song That Has The Power To Lift My Spirits…
…And Do So Throughout The Night And Into The Morning…
…I Figure It Must Be Doing Something Right.
The Album…
“DOUBLE FANTASY“
…Is One Of The Best Albums From The Early 1980s.
Period.
I’ve Owned A Copy Since I Was A Teenager.
My Father Owned A Copy Long Before That.
It’s An Album I Grew-Up-With In The House…
…And I’ve Enjoyed It The Bulk Of My Life.
While I Do Love Love LOVE The Album…
…There Are A Couple Songs That Stand-Out Above And Beyond The Others.
“WATCHING THE WHEELS“
…Is One Of Those Songs.
These Days…
…It’s Basically The Story Of My Existence.
Some Might Think That To Be A Bad Thing.
And It May Be, I Dunno.
But, That Doesn’t Change My Love For The Song.
Different Songs Speak To Different People In Different Ways.
That’s Just Life.
The Song…
“WATCHING THE WHEELS“
…To ME…
…Is Very VERY Uplifting.
It Puts A Big Smile On My Face EACH And EVERY TIME I Hear It.
That’s An Exceptionally Wonderful Result.
I Don’t Really Smile Much.
I’m A Professional At Being Stone-Faced…
…At Being Emotionless…
…At Being Rather Cold.
BUT BUT BUT…
…Sometimes…
…One Just Has To Give-In To The Music…
…And Let It Work Its Magic.
I May Struggle At Giving-In To Anyone OR Anything…
…But, My Music Is Generally The Best Bet If Giving-In Is A Requirement.
“WATCHING THE WHEELS“
…Is A Song That’s A PLEASURE Giving-In To…
…And It Shall (likely) Continue Doing So.
What More Is There To Say, Kiddies?!
EXACTLY!!
Not Much At All.
So I’ll Shut-Up, Now.
Y’all Take Care…
…Be Good…
…See Me Soon…
…And…
…Talk To Me Sooner.
Enjoy The Day, My Peeps.
Enjoy It, Fo SHO!!!
