Don't play with it

You know what's the catch with really stupid meaningless songs? They're extremely catchy. So catchy that you start loving them... strolling down the street humming it... wanting to kick yourself in the shins and stop...

Here's some meaningless songs i've discovered...

• * Young B - "Chicken Noodle Soup"
  
  I Let It Rain Now Clear It Out [x4]
  And Lets Get It, Lets Get It [x7]
  Let It Rain A Clear It Out [x2]
  Chicken Noodle Soup Chicken Noodle Soup Chicken Noodle Soup Wit A Soda On Da Side [x4]
  
  
• * Buckwheat Boys - "Peanut Butter Jelly Time"
  
  Where he at 4x
  There he go 4x
  Peanut butter jelly 4x
  Do the peanut butter jelly, peanut butter jelly,
  Peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat 2x
  
  
• * D4L - "Laffy Taffy"
  
  Gurl shake dat laffy taffy
  Dat laffy taffy
  Shake dat laffy taffy
  Dat laffy taffy
  
  
• * Black Eyed Peas - "My Humps"
  
  What you gon' do with all that junk?
  All that junk inside that trunk?
  I'ma get, get, get, get you drunk,
  Get you love drunk off this hump.
  
• * Gwen Stefani - "Wind it up"
  
  They're trying to bite our style
  Trying to study our approach
  They like the way we do it, so original
  I guess that they are slow, so they should leave the room
  This beat is for the clubs, and cars that go
  
  
• * Fergie - "London Bridge" and "Fergalicious"
  
  I'm Fergalicious (so delicious)
  My body stay vicious
  I be up in the gym just working on my fitness
  He's my witness (oooh, wee)
  I put yo' boy on rock, rock
  And he be lining down the block just to watch what I got (four, tres, two, uno)
  
  
• *Danity Kane - "Show Stoppers"
  
  We in the car
  We ride slow
  We doin things that the girls don't do
  The boys stare
  We smile back
  All my girls in the rainbow cadillacs
  
  (ok.. this is more of a female anthem... but its a catchy male version about cars..and riding in them...)
  
  
• * Mavado "Weh dem do" and "Dreaming" (i just know the chorus...from hearing it so much)
  
  gangsta fa life
  real bakkle is on
  anyway gangsta fa life
  weh dem a do weh dem a try
  marrow wi fly into di sky
  gun mi nuh barrow mi money buy
  a bwoie wi die
  
  
• * Mr. Vegas - "Hot wuk" (as a female... i shouldn't even like this song...but it's all over...)
  
  girl say wine wid it, wine wid it, hot wuk wid it.
  wine wid it, wine wid it, girl snap ur fingers and say.
  wine wid it, wine wid it, hot wuk wid it.
  Now really... c'mon....
  
  
• * Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz - "Get low" (it really is stupid... and like hot wuk...as a female...)
  This is the most PG part of their lyrics i could find... and THAT should say something in itself.
  
  3,6,9 damn she fine hopin she can sock it to me one mo time
  get low, get low, get low, get low.
  
  

There are some others... but as with catchy songs... when you get them out of your system, they're gone. At least until you hear them played once again.

Honestly, what meaningful intellectual understanding can you get from any of those songs? He loves her lady lumps? 3, 6, 9 she fine? *perks eyebrow quizzically* really now...?

Now that i have that out of my system....

Grenada has been so dry recently. Dry, hot and humid. You know how normally you complain about how cold the water is and pray for warm water? Well... the water is hot when you want it to be cold to cool down from the heat and humidity. So instead of leaving with a smile, all cool and clean and refreshed when you shower... you're more likely to 'stupes' and complain about how unsatisfying the shower was as you're STILL feeling hot.

There have also been a LOT of fires recently. We're being serenaded by sirens rushing to fires on a daily basis.

Below are some photos of a fire on a hill... They're not all that great as they were taken with a camera phone... but i tried.





The shots were taken at the Botanical Gardens, Friday 11th May... Sometime around 6 pm i think.

I'm off now...
Tiredness has once more set in.
Shelli out.
Updates postponed till tomorrow.
