Okay, after my lovely Floydian post yesterday, this morning on the radio I caught another song that is a little more “up.” And I think we can all agree that Up is better than Not Up.

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you’re looking for
Turn out the light
Don’t try to save me
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right

The best part? It was sung by The Chipmunks. Volunteer radio rules.

Billy, don’t be a hero

Dedicated to Mr. Joel who recently tied the knot. Again.

You oughta know by now this love of mine is real
Honey words just can’t describe the way I feel
And even though we just met
I’m so glad the date is set
And years from now I would bet
We’d be together still…

But just in case
Just in case
This morning I went by my lawyer’s place
I didn’t think you would mind
Here honey sign this dotted line
What’s yours is yours
And what is mine will always be mine
Just in caseWell you know I can’t love you enough
But I also can’t afford to lose half of my stuff
There’s no doubt in my mind
These ties that we’re about to bind
Will hold us both together any time it gets too tough

But just in case
Just in case
This morning I went by my lawyer’s place
I didn’t think you would mind
Here dumplin’ sign this dotted line
What’s yours is yours
And what is mine will always be mine
Just in case
