* Pebbles & Sunshine *

After a lifelong hatred of country music, I have suddenly and inexplicably become fond of the stuff. It’s really quite alarming. At first it was just Randy Travis. Then I started listening to Big I 107.9 in the car. By now, I like almost all the songs they play on that station. Not just the pop-like Taylor Swift, but even the more hardcore stuff. I even looked up Gretchen Wilson’s Redneck Woman on Youtube out of curiosity. (It turns out I have a nontrivial amount in common with redneck women; at least the part about loving Wal-Mart and Christmas lights. Who-da thunk? Of course, I grew up in Missouri. It would be pretty weird if I wasn’t redneck at all. :D)

I’m just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don’t know where to go, can’t do it alone
I’ve tried, and I don’t know why

Slow it down, make it stop
Or else my heart is going to pop
‘Cause it’s too much, yeah it’s a lot
To be something I’m not
I’m a fool out of love
‘Cause I just can’t get enough …

I’m just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don’t know where to go, can’t do it alone
I’ve tried, and I don’t know why

I’m just a little girl lost in the moment
I’m so scared but I don’t show it
I can’t figure it out, it’s bringing me down
I know I’ve got to let it go …
And just enjoy the show

The sun is hot in the sky
Just like a giant spotlight
The people follow the signs
And synchronize in time
It’s a joke, nobody knows
They’ve got a ticket to the show …

I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show

I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show
