on the other side..

my sis keeps telling me that i should stop sucking up to people who only takes the best out of you.

sucking up, aye?

well, probably yeah. or as a twist, pleasing them would probably the relevant term.
i just can't help it (even by the repetition of that phrase), it is safe to say i am, indeed, a YES man.

here's the deal:

how will you please a mother, while you're tangled up between the real vastly-spinning mutha-fucking world, whereby you have to make ends meet to survive, and at the same time, un-neglect her.

how will you please your bloodlines, to help them whenever in need, while you yourself still getting ahold of loadsa things.

pleasing people that you would consider as families, while the truth of actually you being manipulated, to do things for them, most of the time, for fucking free.

pleasing the one you love, but at the same time, you will be in the sorest state of life.




betcha won't have no room to please yourself, let alone to have ppl to please you the way you did to them. so, scrap that.




i bet John Ondrasik has his own point when he wrote his "Superman" song ten years aback approximately.




don't worry. i love every single one of you, still. :)


dessert bite: oh yeah. i just had a good friend, among friends yang paling aku sayang, who FINALLY came up with a simple line: "tak abes abes". see? how easily ppl wud get annoyed with me, even the closest ones. takpelah yeh. sorry kalau post2 aku selama ni buat kau menyampah. aku igt, aku pegang sampai bila2 kata2 kau, sampai aku mati. :)

When u can even grin while everything around u seemed just as depressing.

Sebelum aku memasukkan entri aku abt the trip to Indo, aku nak post this. A song introduced (re-intro actually, sebab aku lupa lagu ni) by Ashroff from Stonebay. Nice. Buat aku rasa nak patah2kan neck Stratocaster dalam bilik aku tuh, kasik jari sampai lebam. :)

six numbers, one more to dial
before I'm before you
I tried to call
been busy all night
gave up waiting at daylight

excuse me Mrs. Busybody
could you pencil me in when you can
though we both know that the worst part about it
is I would be free when you wanted me
if you wanted me

ohhhhh...
I am the man on the side
hoping you'll make up your mind
I am the one who will swallow his pride
life as the man on the side

one of the many
one of the few
to stand back and wait for you

excuse me Mrs. Busybody
could you pencil me in when you can
though we both know that the worst part about it
is I would be free when you wanted me
if you wanted me, if you wanted me

ohhhh...
I am the man on the side
hoping you'll make up your mind
I am the one who will swallow his pride
Life as the man on the side
Life as the man on the side

I fell in love with the dream that I built of you
playing the part of the queen
taking my own advice
I'm giving up tonight
good luck to you and the king

excuse me Mrs. Busybody
could you pencil me in
though we both know that the worst part about it
is I would be free when you wanted me
if you wanted me, if you wanted me

ohhhhh....
I am the man on the side
hoping you'll make up your mind
I am the one who will swallow his pride
life as the man
you know life as the man
living life as the man on the side

Mr. Mayer, you are the man.
