Boy Bands

Boy bands are more about having slick factory produced dance moves and being made up of reasonably attractive pre-packaged good-looking boys that rarely write their own songs, and hardly ever play their own instruments.

I had to look at a list but when I did I saw that I am not a huge fan of Boy Bands. I did love this song though:

Lyrics

Everybody’s saying silly things
Without knowing that life brings a change
And I’ve been checking all the signs
My friends say I’m love sick ’cause I
All I keep thinking about is her in my arms
(Got to see what love is all about)
And I won’t be the same until she is mine
And my friends keep telling me to

Cool it now
You got to cool it now
Oh watch out
You’re gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down
You’re gonna fall in love

Everyday I walk her home from school
And she tells me how she really feels
And there’s no doubt in my mind
That this girl is one of a kind
‘Cause all I keep thinking about is her in my arms
(Got to see what love is about)
And I won’t feel the same until she is mine
But my friends keep telling me to

Cool it now
You got to cool it now
Oh watch out
You’re gonna lose control
Cool it now
You better slow it down
Slow it down
You’re gonna fall in love

Cool it now
You got to cool it now
Oh watch out
You’re gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down…
You’re gonna fall in love

All I keep thinking about is her in my arms
(Got to see what love is all about)
And I’ll never be the same until you are mine
And my friends keep telling me

When ya got a girl who takes her time
You must slow the pace you can’t mess with her mind
If she feels the same she’ll letcha know
Just prepare yourself or be ready to go
And I hope this message stays in your mind
Cause you almost lost a girl who is right on time
There’s one more thing that ya got to know
Just cool it down and stay in control

Cool it now
You got to cool it now
Oh watch out
You’re gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down
You’re gonna fall in love baby

All I keep thinking about is her in my arms
(Got to see what love is all about)
And I’ll never be the same until you are mine, oh
Listen to me let me tell you

Why you all coming down on me
Tryin’ to tell me how my life is supposed to be
I know you’re only trying to help me out
Tryin’ to show me what life is really about
But this time I’m gonna make it on my own
So why dontcha fellaz just leave me alone
Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike
If I like the girl who cares who you like

Cool it now
Oh watch out, out, out, out
Cool it now
Slow it down, down, down, down
Cool it now
Oh watch out, out, out, out
Cool it now
Slow it down, down, down, down

Cool it now
Oh watch out
‘Cause you’re gonna lose control
Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down
You’re gonna fall in love

Cool it now
Slow it down
You’re gonna lose control

Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down.
‘Cause you’re gonna fall in love

Cool it now
Slow it down
‘Cause you’re gonna lose control

Cool it now
You got to slow it down
Slow it down

Cool it now
Ooh watch out
Cool it now
Slow it down

The Sunday Poser

I do like to please people but I have learned just over the last decade or so that I need to be kind to myself and I need to think about the repercussions. It seems like when my sister used to say that I “wore Rose colored glasses” that this is sort of the same thing. I like to see the best side of things and encourage positive things. My last therapist taught me however to ask myself how I really felt. I think being a people pleaser isn’t as bad as taking advantage of a people pleaser.
