this seat is taken

Sometimes we accidentally hear a random song that sticks to our head like a chewed gum stuck at the soles of our sneakers. That chewed gum of a song will stick to you for the rest of the year. I think I found the soundtrack of my being 24.

Everyone seems so certain
Everyone knows who they are
Everyone’s got a mother and a father
They all seem so sure they’re going far
They all got more friends than they can use
 

Harper Simon – Wishes and Stars

Everyone’s been on a holiday in the sun
Or they just got back from one
All they do is just have fun
They all got more friends than they can use

I’m slow like the trees when they grow
I’m sluggish like the ocean when it moves
I’m plain like water or like rain
But I shouldn’t complain cause it don’t matter
