Manic Monday Mania!!

Pin It

That's right folks, its that time once again. Manic Monday Mania!  Coming off of the weekend and most folks are dreading going back to work or school or to just start the day to day grind of what the weekdays have to offer. 

I am coming off of one hellish weekend. The twins were exposed to someone that was sick over the weekend when that sick person come to our house.  (You would think that family would know better!) Adam is sick. He started running a fever on Saturday night after our guests left. His fever has lasted all weekend long. He has a bit of a runny nose going. Keith is on the way to the pediatricians office right now. Amazingly enough, the other two have not caught it yet. I hope it does not lead to another bout of RSV but it probably will. 

The rest of the weekend was the same as usual. No way to go anywhere (my van is shot and we can't fit all of us into the truck) so me and the kids stay here at home practically 24/7.  The only physical contact we get from the outside world lately is when someone decides to grace us with their presence. (Which is great, just please leave the sick people at home!) 

To start off our Manic Monday Mania the right way I have chosen the 80's band The Fixx & their song "One Thing Leads to Another" from their album Reach the Beach. This song topped out on the US charts at # 4 in 1983. The words and video are below! Enjoy this Manic Monday Mania! 

One Thing Leads To Another - The Fixx

The deception with tact, just what are you trying to say?
You've got a blank face, which irritates
Communicate, pull out your party piece
You see dimensions in two
State your case with black or white
But when one little cross leads to shots, grit your teeth
You run for cover so discreet, why don't they:

Do what they say, say what you mean
One thing leads to another
You told me something wrong, I know I listen too long
But then one thing leads to another.

The impression that you sell
Passes in and out like a scent
But the long face that you see comes from living close
To your fears
If this is up then I'm up but you're running out of sight
You've seen your name on the walls
And when one little bump leads to shock miss a beat
You run for cover and there's heat, why don't they:

Do what they say, say what they mean
One thing leads to another
You told me something wrong, I know I listen too long
But then one thing leads to another
One thing leads to another

Then it's easy to believe
Somebody's been lying to me
But when the wrong word goes in the right ear
I know you've been lying to me
It's getting rough, off the cuff I've got to say enough's enough

Bigger the harder he falls
But when the wrong antidote is like a bulge on the throat
You runs for cover in the heat why don't they

Do what they say, say what they mean
One thing leads to another
You tell me something wrong, I know I listen too long
But then one thing leads to another
One thing leads to another (Repeat)
