Easy

I have this kinda whacked personality disorder when it comes to taxi drivers. Perhaps I'm a spoiled middle-class-America-reared kid who gets miffed easily just because multiple empty cabs will pass me by on a given day or night. Or hell, maybe I become nearly apoplectic when it happens because I have had more responsive cabbies (of different ethnicities) tell me it happens largely because I am African-American. Add to all of this the fact there are obviously LEGITIMATE reasons a hack can't take a fare, and you have one confusing mess of soup.

 

Well when it happened earlier today, the driver explained that he was on his way to pick up another fare. Without missing a beat - or giving a damn whether he was telling the truth - I replied, "It's your (lost) money, man" and walked away. Doubt my blood pressure inched up a millimeter. Caught another cab that wasn't as pressed, made it to the pharmacy, caught another cab to my doctor's appointment, and took this relaxed, sunny, flowery (holy hell) shot before I went into the office.

 

There are truly days when the outside world cannot wreck your inner peace. I find those days to be pretty cool and - of course, pretty

 

Easy

as performed by the Commodores

 

Know it sounds funny

But I just can't stand the pain

Girl I'm leaving you tomorrow

Seems to me girl

You know I've done all I can

You see I begged, stole

And I borrowed

 

Ooh, that's why I'm easy

I'm easy like sunday morning

That's why I'm easy

I'm easy like sunday morning

 

Why in the world

Would anyboddy put chains on me?

I've paid my dues to make it

Everbody wants me to be

What they want me to be

I'm not happy when I try to fake it!

No!

 

Ooh,that's why I'm easy

I'm easy like sunday morning

That's why I'm easy

I'm easy like sunday morning

 

I wanna be high, so high

I wanna be free to know

The things I do are right

I wanna be free

Just me, babe!

 

That's why I'm easy

I'm easy like sunday morning

That's why I'm easy

I'm easy like sunday morning

Because I'm easy

Easy like sunday morning

Because I'm easy

Easy like sunday morning
