I thought it was brilliant.

There always will be someone, in most songs, who takes umbrage with lyrics.

I understand that from your perspective Dan, it brings bad things to the fore. But there are people who are not dependent and just make bad decisions we don't know.

I went through that in the hospital when chemo came close to killing me. Some songs just peed me off. Royally. Being told it was 50 50 I'd make a year didn't help.

I'm still kicking but resigned to fate.

On the other hand the words are well done, and I could see this showing up on a late night show with slides. We hold our 'public' figures to a higher standard, that's why the average joe who gets pulled over isn't news. Let it be a NBA star and it's front page. There is a difference to being stupid or calling for a ride. I went through the stupid period, then realized after years I was rolling loaded dice, and had the money to take cabs. I'm not saying she has a dependency, and Ed does not imply that. He's talking about bad decisions, or If I only had a brain.

Thanks for the chuckle Ed.
