My brain is suddenly alight like fireworks, A thousand ideas spawning from thin air, Things I've forgotten ten times over come back in a flash, Birthday dates, Phone numbers of old coworkers, Names of films. I need to find paper, Need to write this down before I forget. My phone rings, I answer it, It's a Telemarketer, CLICK! The paper before me lies mostly blank, The only words written are as follows: --------------------------------------------------------------- Glass stopper Canada! Pe Colin Hay black garlic ()**() /l l/ ---------------------------------------------------------------- ^ Above is my best text translation of a doodled elephant head. I'm about to scream, Because I can't remember for the life for me as to why I wrote them, It's all dialogue with no context. A paper of hieroglyphs and me without a Rosetta Stone.

My brain is suddenly alight like fireworks, A thousand ideas spawning from thin air, Things I've forgotten ten times over come back in a flash, Birthday dates, Phone numbers of old coworkers, Names of films. I need to find paper, Need to write this down before I forget. My phone rings, I answer it, It's a Telemarketer, CLICK! The paper before me lies mostly blank, The only words written are as follows: --------------------------------------------------------------- Glass stopper Canada! Pe Colin Hay black garlic ()**() /l l/ ---------------------------------------------------------------- ^ Above is my best text translation of a doodled elephant head. I'm about to scream, Because I can't remember for the life for me as to why I wrote them, It's all dialogue with no context. A paper of hieroglyphs and me without a Rosetta Stone.
Statesboro Blues by the Allman Brothers is a good listen
