A Macy Gray song went like this:
I try to say goodbye and i choke
try to walk away and i stumble
when i try to hide it, its clear, my world crumbles when you are not there
I used to believe it went like this:
I try to say goober and achoooo
try to walk away and i stamp balls
when i tried to hide it, its clear, i blow bubbles when you are not there
My sister and I crack up everytime we think about it.
