The Pursuit of Happiness is the group
I'm An Adult Now
Well, I don't hate my parents
I don't get drunk just to spite them
I've got my own reasons to drink now
Think I'll call my dad up and invite him
I can sleep in till noon anytime I want
Though there's not many days that I do
Gotta get up and take on that world
When your an adult it's no cliche it's the truth
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm an adult now
I'm an adult now
I've got the problems of an adult
On my head and on my shoulders
I'm an adult now
I can't even look at young girls anymore
People will think I'm some kind of pervert
Adult sex is either boring or dirty
Young people they can get away with murder
I don't write songs about girls anymore
I have to write songs about women
No more boy meets girl boy loses girl
More like man tries to figure out what the hell went wrong
I can't take any more illicit drugs
I can't afford any artificial joy
I'd sure look like a fool dead in a ditch somewhere
With a mind full of chemicals
Like some cheese-eating high school boy
Sometimes my head hurts and sometimes my stomach hurts
And I guess it won't be long
Till I'm sitting in a room with a bunch
of people whose necks and backs are aching
Whose sight and hearing's failing
Who just can't seem to get it up
Speaking of hearing, I can't take too much loud music
I mean I like to play it, but I sure don't like the racket
Noise, but I can't hear anything
Just guitars screaming, screaming, screaming
Some guy screaming in a leather jacket
Wooah!
(Chorus)

Son once asked, "Dad, I just want to be deep." I told him he was on his own.

A bit of both wouldn't hurt anybody.

| As a young'n, I would often read "eclectic" as "electric" and vice versa. I learned to slow down after using "eclectic eel" in 9th grade Science...

| But....but.....who's to say that there isn't actually an eclectic species of eel ( electric or non- ) that hadn't been discovered at the time of your report ?!

I am going to conjure up a description of our newly discovered eclectic eel. When satisfied, a letter will be sent to Mr. Kish.
I would like a little help - just in case anyone has seen one.....

The eclectic eel goes side to side, back and forth, and changes depth on a whim.
Hope that helps.

Um, a former neighbor's cousin majored in Oceanography, but i haven't heard from either of them in many years............
HAY, one could submit a submission to the Pedia Of Wiki concerning a heretofore overlooked eel species !!! ( They're not big on fact-checking, right ??  ) You I mean one could then include documentation in one's letter to Mr. Kish. *
* Not that I'm advocating such a practice; this is meant for infotainment purposes only. Consult your doctor before beginning any research project. The BBS Attorney Consortium has approved this disclaimer. Or they will as soon as I suggest it to them.
