How Many Times?
Recently Ronda and I were listening to the radio and she mentioned that the new song by John Mayer drives her somewhat crazy. I asked why and she said it was because how many times John Mayer repeats the chorus, “Say What You Need To Say”. So the next time the song came on we counted, we counted 25 times he repeats “Say What You Need To Say”. So I guess he is really trying to drive home a point, Say What You Need To Say.
Take all of your wasted honor.
Every little past frustration.
Take all of your so called problems,
Better put ‘em in quotations.
Say what you need to say (x8)
Walkin’ like a one man army,
Fightin’ with the shadows in your head.
Livin’ up the same old moment
Knowin’ you’d be better off instead
If you could only…Say what you need to say (x8)
Have no fear for givin’ in.
Have no fear for giving over.
You better know that in the end
It’s better to say too much, than never to say what you need to say again.
Even if your hands are shaking,
And your faith is broken.
Even as the eyes are closin’,
Do it with a heart wide open.
Say what you need to say (x7)
Say what you need to, Say what you need to…
Say what you need to say.

This is incomplete…we counted 38 before the fade out. I am guessing that there were 40 total.
I think it’s a method of brainwashing. Listening to it, I’m ready to throw myself in front of a riding lawnmower after the second chorus.
Then again, I think John Mayer is missing a chromosome.
