Dedicated to all of those who suffer from A.D.H... did I leave the stove on?
lyrics
FOUR LETTERS (ADHD)
Verse 1:
Well, ever since I was a girl
I knew I’d always lose
I couldn’t find my toys or a pair of matching shoes
Running round my room
At the speed of light
Talking so fast my stories would last
Hours into the night
Chorus:
Blame it on the Four
Letters at my core
My leg I’m shaking and my nails I’m chewing
Yeah I’m Always. Dreaming. Hardly. Doing.
Verse 2:
Forgot to wind the clock
It’s why I’m always late
But in my mind, I’m right on time
No matter how long you wait
Giving me a choice
I’m always on the fence
My thoughts are so scrambled sometimes my words
Don’t make any… Squirrel!
Chorus:
Blame it on the Four
Letters at my core
Everything I say can be misconstruing
Yeah I’m Always. Dreaming. Hardly. Doing.
Bridge:
Well I gotta clean my place
But I don’t know how to pace
I’ll start with the DVDs
Three hours pass
Still sitting on my ass
Sorting by genre, by color, and alphabetically!
Verse 3:
I’m working on 6 projects
Cause I can’t focus on one
With everything all at once nothing ever gets done!
Some say it’s a problem
Something wrong with my brain
Though rules of society raise my anxiety I wouldn’t change a thing!
Chorus:
Blame it on the Four
Letters at my core
Yeah, popping a pill could be subduing to my
(Always Always)
Blame it on the Four
Letters at my core
My momma says that I never stop moving
Cause I'm always always
(Hardly Doing! Don't be fuming! I'm amusing!)
When it comes to the path that I’m pursing it helps to be
Always Dreaming... Hardly A.D.H. ....
where did that squirrel go?

Awesome track! I also love the "tribute" at the end to that old D&D audio, genius!
