Yeah houston, I think we do have a problem

To manipulate a line from one of Pink's songs

Earth - I think we have a problem

Was listening to a song from P!nk's Funhouse CD (link to music at bottom of entry) - it is a little song, probably overlooked by most - but one of my favorites and lately very appropo. Along with that - I watched the movie Evan Almighty, finally, the other day with my little one and I really, really liked it (it is going on my top movie list). Others might think hokey or dorky, but I really liked it and I realize, I need to do/make/create more ARKs (if you have not seen the movie and want it spoiled, contact me and I'll tell you what an ARK is).

So - I leave you with the song and lyrics I really like the lyrics and can relate right now, I am so looking for that light she references - although, it is ironic perhaps that I am not religious (so do not promote the Ave Mary A part per se :) I am agnostic (in the true sense of the word - check out atheism.about.com/od/aboutagnosticism/a/what.htm and atheism.about.com/od/aboutagnosticism/a/atheism.htm and

Still - Earth, we have a problem - check out the message in the song

Ave Mary A - lyrics - by P!NK [Ave Mary A Lyrics On http://www.elyricsworld.com/ ]

Motorcycles in the parking lot
Revving their engines and it just wont stop
Matches and noise screaming in my head
Houston, I think we got a problem

Where does everybody go when they go?
The go so fast I don't think they know
We hate so fast
And we love too slow
London, I think we got a problem

And when I think about it
I just can't think about it
I try to drink about it
I keep spinning

Ave Mary A
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
How did you know to get out of a world gone mad?
Help me let go
Of the chaos around me
The devil that hounds me
I need you to tell me

Child, be still
Child, be still

Broken hearts all around the spot
I can't help thinking that we lost the plot
Suicide bomber and a student shot
Tokyo, I think we got a problem

But for that, they got a pill
If that don't kill you, then the side effects will
If we don't kill each other, then the side effects will
Cape Town, I think we got a problem

Ave Mary A
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
How did you know to get out of a world gone mad?
Help me let go
Of the chaos around me
The devil that hounds me
I need you to tell me

Child, be still

If the darkest hour comes
Before the light
Where is the light?
Where is the light?

If the darkest hour comes
Before the light
Where is the light?
Where is the light?
Where is the light, yeah

Ave Mary A
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
How did you know to get out of a world gone mad?
Help me, help me, let go
Of the chaos around me
The devil that hounds me
I need you to tell me

Child, be still
Child, be still
Child, be still
