Swift

My mother is convinced my daughter is going to be the next Taylor Swift. Well, minus the sleeping around, playing the victim and saying “you guys” in every acceptance speech. My daughter likes to write songs about complete nonsense. She makes anyone and everyone sit and watch her perform. It’s really adorable to those of us who are related to her. Her songs are really, really, really long. You know you’re in for an extended performance when she announces the song title. Her latest single to drop was called
“I Ride a Horse in the Day Time All Around the Town and Don’t Try to Take My Horse Because I Like it and He Likes Me and It’s a Brown Horse That Says Neigh.” Yes, that was the title. She is pretty creative and busts out a cool breakdancing move mid-song. Who knows? Someday she could sing that song sitting on the ground Indian Style in a soda commercial.  I am sorry, but not sorry for saying Indian Style.   When I was growing up we didn’t obsess about the politically correct way to tell school aged children to sit on a rug.  Nowadays it is called sitting “Criss Cross Apple Sauce.”  (OMG, Sometimes I just have to SMH at these new terms.  It really makes me LOL at how different things are.)    Much like a Taylor Swift song I can’t get my daughter’s lyrics out of my head. I managed to record a bit of “I Ride a Horse in the Day Time All Around the Town and Don’t Try to Take My Horse Because I Like it and He Likes Me and It’s a Brown Horse That Says Neigh.”  I think is the part where Mr. 305 would step in and break it down.
