Quote of the Day

In one of my more relaxed moments I thought I'd wind Boss up by singing a song he has never heard before. A song which both my sister and I sang with unremitting relentlessness in the quest to annoy just about everyone we knew. The song goes something like this:


"I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves" ad infinitum til people peel their eyeballs out of their sockets or leave the room. Or both.

With just a little chortle to myself I began my onslaught which could have my mother begging for mercy in under 2 minutes.

Me: I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves.

I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves.


I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves.


I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves.


I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves.

***AND PLEASE BEAR IN MIND I COULDN'T HOLD A TUNE IF I NAILED IT TO MYSELF***

I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves.

After Five. Solid. Minutes (time it - it's a long time) of this I stop and look at Boss who has been sitting quietly listening to it with an earnest look of deep, philosophical thought. I wait for him to say something whilst I have a silly grin on my face.

Boss: Well??

Me: Well what??

Boss: What is it?

Me: What's what??

Boss: What's the song that's going to get on my nerves?

























I give up.
