Music Tuesday?

*Ok, ok. I know I am all out of order this week but my mind is all in a blob in my brain and I really did think it was Monday but by the time I realized it wasn't I already had this all typed out and such but I really don't want to let it get lost before next Monday so now we are just going to go with Music Tuesday this week. Forgive me. Just this once? Please?*

Music is a huge part of Tommy and I's relationship. Its something we bonded over in the beginning and still connect with now.  I will be posting the lyrics to a song and what it means to me every Monday (hopefully). At least until I run out of interesting things to say (Or I forget). Make sense? Feel free to do your own but please link back to me and add your site to the comments below!

King of Anything by Sara Bareilles



Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table
While I look outside
So many things I’d say if only I were able
But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by

You’ve got opinions, man
We’re all entitled to ‘em, but I never asked
So let me thank you for your time, and try not to waste anymore of mine
And get out of here fast

I hate to break it to you babe, but I’m not drowning
There’s no one here to save

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

You sound so innocent, all full of good intent
Swear you know best
But you expect me to jump up on board with you
And ride off into your delusional sunset

I’m not the one who’s lost with no direction
But you’ll never see
You’re so busy making maps with my name on them in all caps
You got the talking down, just not the listening

And who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

All my life I’ve tried to make everybody happy
While I just hurt and hide
Waiting for someone to tell me it’s my turn to decide

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?

Let me hold your crown, babe.



Ok, so you can't tell me that any mother out there can not identify with this song.Who died an made any one the king of your life? Since when did anyone know how to raise your children, your family, better than you? Every one has an opinion. An opinion on how you should do it and what you are doing wrong and how they can help you be a better parent.  Its like as soon as people find out your are growing that teeny little bean in your uterus they assume you want their advice. How dare them tell you who to be? How to live? You don't have to agree with how I raise my children but don't dare challenge me and tell me how to do it your way. You are not me.

Am I right??
