Don't Rain on my Parade

Who's going to argue with Babs?

I'm gonna live and live now
Get what I want--I know how

Maybe I should get a t-shirt or something. A hat, a messenger bag of some kind. I'm not above getting the damn thing tattooed on my forehead.

I know what I'm doing. I've figured out what I want. I'm actively choosing to be the person I want to be, living the life I want to live.

There are some days, when I don't even want to leave the house. Days when I won't answer the phone. Days I don't have to go anywhere or see anybody. To me, this is bliss. From waking up, enjoying my coffee, to drinking my tea and going to bed.

All too often I feel like a 70 year old woman trapped in a 22 year old lifestyle.

What I wish is that it would be okay for me to live my life. 22 or 70 or whatever. Without friends who so closely resemble obstacles. Without people insistent on telling me what I should be doing.

Life is good.

I'm gonna live and live now
Get what I want--I know how
