Sing Happy Things

This is for AJ. My song recommendation for the day:

Greg Laswell - Sing, Theresa Says

We've both been hooked on this song since we listened to it in the car on the way to the Josh Ritter show Wednesday night.

If you like it too, you should check out the other stuff he's got up on his myspace page, or buy his new album, Through Toledo (released July 11th on Vanguard Records).

sing, theresa says

go to sleep while i gather all my things
and i will call you in a couple of days
i can hear the june bugs approaching
a god damn army of them in my brain

"sing," theresa says. "sing happy things"
"sing," theresa says if i do everything
one day a man will spring worth loving

all of my friends fall from the sky now
many more than i ever thought i had
everyone is sharpening up their angles
when all i really want is...

"sing," theresa says. "sing happy things"
"sing," theresa says if i do everything
one day a man will spring worth loving

ba-da-dum-da-dum-da-dum-dum
ba-da-dum-da-dum-da-dum-dum
ba-da-dum-da-dum-da-dum-dum
ba-da-dum-da-dum-da-dum-dum

"sing," theresa says. "sing happy things"
"sing," theresa says if i do everything
one day a man will spring worth loving
