Three Day Weekend

Bank holiday and I though I'd better use it To write something that sounds like Japanese entrance music That wasn't my intention when I first sat down to write But that's what happens to a mind obsessed with wrestling day and night I watched eight hours straight of WWE Catching up on Raw and Smackdown and with NXT Then I gotta get my Yen's worth and watch some New Japan Not enough hours in the day to satisfy this grappling fan Super Strong Style 16 - 3 days of Progress too And did I mention Sunday night's the Backlash pay per view? Three more hours watching my heroes pretend to fight Then the cycle starts again with a new Raw tomorrow night! Bank Holiday - No Work For Three Days The working week's a backlog of dreams deferred and fun delayed But then this gift of time arrives and all the plans can be remade The three day weekend lies before me, pregnant, full of promise I really don't want to waste them - but if I'm being honest... 72 hours sounds a lot but 24 will be spent sleeping Then a bunch more catching up on chores and quite a few more eating Realistically, the goals I have - seeing friends and family The books I think I'm going to read - the podcasts, films and the TV The creative projects I imagine I will be undertaking... Not even half of this can be fit in into the meagre time remaining So take away the fifteen hours spent watching pseudo-fighting While these days are still an imperfect way of fitting a whole life in And I didn't spend the time discovering a cure for cancer Or tackling philosophy's biggest questions for an answer And I may not clear my shelves of every book that I have picked Or be able to binge on my entire watchlist over on Netflix Or listen to every song my hungry ears may want to hear Or write a brand new album or get prorities clear I got to see Avengers - and that Amy schumer film And the one book that I read was a good one by Joe Hill And I saw Kamasi Washington play at Cheltenham jazz And I got back up to date with the Pansycast podcast And I wrote this song It may not be about anything important But I wrote this song And I haven't even gotten to the most important thing Because if you look on my left hand then you'd see my wedding ring Everything else I've mentioned hitherto this final section Is merely background rhyming to a public display of affection Three days off means three days in - three breakfasts with my wife And when I watch those hours of wrestling who'd you think is by my side? That drive to see Kamasi, at the venue next to me Whose hand do you think I'm holding while he's blowing on his reed? Who was forced to hear this song from embryo to final stage? Who celebrates and smiles when I turn a book's last page? It's not about what you do, but who you get to do it with I don't need a three day weekend to enjoy the life I live
