Ultimate Douchebag Songs - Freebird

I got in the car this week and the radio turned on to the local classic rock station. Now I listen to lots of different kinds of music, a huge variety compared to most people, but there is a special spot in my heart for classic rock. I love Cream, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Eagles, etc. And most people in the South have drunkenly sang along to Freebird from Lynyrd Skynyrd at one point in their lives. Freebird was the song playing. I think I could hear Freebird 20 times a day if I flipped radio stations enough. And that is not something I want to do.

Anyway, I used to like to hum along to Freebird. I think not so much at this point. Especially after the crappy summer I have had dealing with every version of douchebag who can’t or won’t man up and do their job. And that means you too, crappy, nameless general contractors.

Freebird is on my list now of “Songs that cause me to change the station”. So over douchebags.

Seriously, read the lyrics. Noncommittal, loser, douchebag is the way I read it.

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
cause theres too many places Ive got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldnt be the same.
cause Im as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I cant change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I cant change.
But please dont take it badly,
cause lord knows Im to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldnt be the same.
Cause Im as free as a bird now,
And this bird youll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I cant change.
Lord help me, I cant change.
