Octopus's Garden

I'd like to be
under the sea
in an octopus's garden
in the shade



he'd let us in
knows where we've been
in his octopus's garden
in the shade


i ask my friends to call and see
an octopus's garden with me

we would be warm
below the storm
in our little hideaway beneath the waves


resting our head
on the seabed
in an octopus's garden
near a cave


we would sing and dance around
because we know we can't be found


I'd like to be
under the sea
in an octopus's garden
in the shade


we would shout
and swim about 
the coral that lies beneath the wave


oh what joy
for every boy and girl
knowing that they're happy and safe


we would be so happy you and me
no one there to tell us what to do

Week summed up in these pictures; too much work, food, hours spent being alone in a good way, view from my room, playing with my webcam (yet again) ... today was funny, it started raining in the middle of a sunny day. Bought 25 figs in a box for a bargain price at a food market and ate lots. Lips sting, I think it's the acid.

Arh, lots of work ... got to work tonight. Too much coffee and chocolate this week. 

I love taste testing at food markets. I end up eating from everything around and feeling like a foodie (: I wish I was a food critic - what a fun and enjoyable job, tasting food. I also had free chocolate, cheese and awesome mustard and jam. Delicious! I leave you with a Beatles song, oh how I love them so. They are simply soothing and suitable for UK life!

New favorite song of the week:
 Octopus's Garden - The Beatles
