My Life as a Country Song – Some Beach, Blake Shelton
Some Beach, somewhere, there’s a big umbrella casting shade over an empty chair
Palm trees are growin’ and a warm breezes a blowing
I picture myself right there, on Some beach, somewhere
In this song, the character goes through a series of unfortunate situations throughout the day, and during each one, he imagines himself on a beach somewhere.
We are about to get a major snowfall here in Baltimore. The fifth or sixth time this year we’ve gotten enough snow to talk about – and this time, like the snowfall we got in December, it will likely shut down the city for a few days. Upwards of 20 inches. That doesn’t happen here. I’d like to be on some beach, somewhere.
Last night I woke up to an emergency in the middle of the night. It took me over an hour to fall back asleep. I wish I had been at some beach, somewhere.
Last Thursday it took me two and a half hours to get home from work. I have a 70 mile commute, so a long ride is usual, but two and a half hours is crazy. I could see myself in that beach chair drinking a Corona.
How nice would life be if we could just transport ourselves to a beach when we are in situations which are less than desirable? I think I’d be there for a portion of every day…
