Mood Rings (a song by Relient K)

(Now for a semi-serious music recommendation!)

"We all know the girls that I am talking about
Well they are time bombs and they are ticking
And the only question's when they'll blow up
And they'll blow up; We know that without a doubt
cause they're those girls, yeah you know those girls
that let their emotions get the best of them

Go!

And I've contrived some sort of a plan
to help my fellow man
Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're thinking Just what their thinking

She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her moods out swinging on the swing set almost everyday
She said to me that she's so happy it's depressing
And all I said was someone get that girl a mood ring!
If it's drama you want then look no further
They're like the real world, meets boy meets world, meets days of our lives
and it just kills me how they get away with murder
they'll anger you, Then bat their eyes; those pretty eyes that watch you sympathize

Go!

And I've contrived some sort of a plan
to help my fellow man
Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
cause we'll know just what they're thinking just what their thinking

She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
her moods out swinging on the swing set almost every day
she said to me that she's so stressed out that it's soothing
and all I said was someone get that girl a mood ring

Cause when it's black means watch your back because you're probably
the last person in the world right now she wants to see
and when it's blue it means you should call her up immediately
and ask her out because she'll most likely agree
and when it's green it simply means that she is really stressed
and when it's clear is means she is completely emotionless
(And that's alright I must confess)

We all know the girls that I am talking about,
she liked you Wednesday but now it's Friday
and she has to wash her hair
and it just figures that we'll never figure them out
well first she's jekyl and then she's hyde... at least she makes a lovely pair

Mood ring, oh mood ring, oh tell me will you bring
the key to unlock this mystery
Of girls and their emotions play it back in slow motion
so I may understand
the complex infrastructure known as the female mind (Heh, that was terrible)"

(I completely cracked up on hearing that, and all I can say, really... is "I want one!" Obviously this was written from a guy's perspective. And for all you guys out there wondering... that's like how it is! As in, I had to explain to two different guys (my Dad, for one) what an emotional breakdown was. Now what girl doesn't know that....
As for those girls who let their emotions get away with them... let's be clear on one thing. All girls are emotional, it's just that some of us follow (or attempt to) Romans 8 - that is, living by the Spirit thus 'putting to death all fleshly desires'. (Sometimes, Yeah right.) =) So - from that two conclusions! 1. - You (whoever you are) absolutely have got to hear the song. 2. - Go read Romans 8. It's pretty good.)
