My sister is totally into hip-hop and rap and she sneers at anyone who would dare to listen to emo/indie/pop/folk/etc.. anyway, I hacked her myspace this summer and I changed her song from T.I. to a song called "This Book is so Awesome" by Harry and the Potters. Here's the link:
I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case.
I said to my reflection, Let's get out of this place.
Passed the church and the steeple, the laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings
Memories of it still keep calling
And calling
But forget it all I know I will
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
sunny days
sweeping the clouds away
on my way to where the air is sweet
can you tell me how to get
how to get to sesame street
come and play
everything's a-okay
family neighbors friends
that's where we meet
can you tell me how to get
how to get to--
sunny days
sweeping the clouds away
on my way to where the air is sweet
can you tell me how to get
how to get to sesame street
come and play
everything's a-okay
family neighbors friends
that's where we meet
can you tell me how to get
how to get to sesame street
how to get to sesame street
how to get to sesame street
how to get to sesame street
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
