Cupid’s Chokehold by Gym Class Heroes Featuring Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy

Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
It’s been some time since we last spoke
This is gonna sound like a bad joke
But momma I fell in love again
It’s safe to say I have a new girlfriend
And I know it sounds so old
But cupid got me in a chokehold
And I’m afraid I might give in
Towels on the mat my white flag is wavin’
I mean she even cooks me pancakes
And Alka Seltzer when my tummy aches
If that ain’t love then I don’t know what love is
We even got a secret handshake
And she loves the music that my band makes
I know I’m young but if I had to choose her or the sun
I’d be one nocturnal son of a gun
(ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend

It’s been awhile since we talked last and I’m tryin’ hard not to talk fast
But dad I’m finally thinkin’ I may have found the one
Type of girl that will make you way proud of your son
And I know you heard the last song about the girls that didn’t last long
But I promise this is on a whole new plane
I can tell by the way she says my name (ba ba da da)
I love it when she calls my phone
She even got her very own ringtone
If that ain’t love then I don’t know what love is (ba ba da da)
It’s gonna be a long drive home but I know as soon as I arrive home
And I open the door take off my coat and throw my bag on the floor
She’ll be back into my arms once more for sure
Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
She’s got a smile that would make the most senile
Annoying old man bite his tongue
I’m not done
She’s got eyes comparable to sunrise
And it doesn’t stop there
Man I swear
She’s got porcelain skin of course she’s a ten
And now she’s even got her own song
But movin’ on
She’s got the cutest laugh I ever heard
And we can be on the phone for three hours
Not sayin’ one word
And I would still cherish every moment
And when I start to build my future she’s the main component
Call it dumb call it luck call it love or whatever you call it but
Everywhere I go I keep her picture in my wallet like here
Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Since I am still in the mood to talk about Boss Darling’s night activities and other people’s night activities, I came up with a question to ask you… Just say that your spouse sleep talks at night. And one night you overheard your partner mention a random name of the opposite sex (or same sex, depending whether your partner is hiding her/his true sexual identity) that you never heard of. And no, it ain’t any celebraties name. What would you do? So far, I have yet to hear Boss Darling mention any girl’s name (or guy’s… phew). But Boss Darling did ask me what would I do if he does. Well, I think I will wake him up and question him about it. I make sure he wakes up and explain to me, regardless what time it is and whether if he needs to work the next day. Either I get the confirmation right then or out the door. 
But then again, would you be mad if your partner mention a random name when sleep talking and threaten to end the relation? I will not be mad if it turns out to be just.. random things he says but if it turns out that he does have someone else, boy, I chop him into million pieces and throw him out of the door.. hehe Fierce or not? Fierce leh.. hehe If it happens to you, not saying it will, how will you react?
Trading Spouses or also known as the Trading Spouses: Meet Your New Mommy is a FOX Network reality show in which two families usually from different social classes, swap wives or husbands for a week. End of the week, each family is then awarded $50,000, with the stipulation that the guest mother decides how her host family must spend the money.
I watched this show when I was still studying in Curtin but did not watch it anymore once I moved in with Boss Darling simply because we don’t have a television at home. As last Monday was a public holiday here for Easter Monday, I manage to watch the show with P.M.I.L when we were over there.
In that particular episode, the Andrews family are swapping their wife/mother with the Nelson family. Give you a bit of a background. Andrews family consist of Steven (Dad), Doreen (Mom), 2 daughters (one 23 years old and the other 21) and a son who is 15 years old. The children do not help out with the house chores as Doreen does everything. Meaning, they don’t even need to life a finger to put their dirty clothes into the laundry machine! I not sure if the parent’s pampered them or what.. but they certainly are spoilt brats. The husband, Steven doesn’t help any matters as he too doesn’t help out with the house work. (This sounds like typical Chinese family where wife works in the house and husband just act like king hor). Whenever Doreen tells the kids to clean up their own mess or to help out with the ever so messy house, the kids yell back at the mother but still doesn’t do anything to help and that pissed Doreen even more.
As for the Nelsons, Mark (Dad) and Terry (Mom) only has a teenage daughter, Rachel (Eh, same time as Shannon’s daughter!) The daughter dreams to be a professional ballerina and currently home schooled. (Studying from home) Mark and Terry owns a band where Mark plays the guitar and Terry sings.
Hey, you thinking, no big deal right to swap spouses for a week. One week only and then you get like $50,000 end of the week Easy right you think.. Well, it isn’t.
At Andrews, Terry does all the cleaning and washing in the house hold while the kids (as usual) just laze around doing nothing. The minute Terry finishes cleaning the house and turns her back for a few minutes, the house is a mess again. So Terry is fed up and put on a strike! (Go Terry!) If I am her, I would also put on a strike… And do nothing in the house since no one is helping out anyway. When Steven got back from work, he is pissed with Terry as he expects her to do all the house work. But of course, Terry told Steven that if the kids help clean the house, she will chip in and help. (Andrews 0 Terry 1) Steven then starts to clean the house and realised that it ain’t easy to keep the house clean alone when you have like 2 adult children and a teenage son who don’t help. With that, Steven realised his mistake and promises to help Doreen out with the house work. (Andrews 0 Terry 2)
A different story all together is happening in the Nelson’s. Doreen and Mark are cursing and yelling at each other because Doreen thinks that the parents (especially Terry) is trying to protect Rachel from the outside world and does not let her to make friends with other people. But Mark said that Rachel is old enough to decide whether she wants to go to public school or home school as they respect Rachel’s decision. At the end, Mark said sorry to Doreen and invite her to sing in his band. Overall, Doreen seems to have enjoyed herself with the Nelson’s.
End of the week, after Doreen and Terry met, hugged, talked to each other and have each other the letter on how to distribute the money, they both went back to their separate homes. Mark was happy that Terry is back and is overall happy with the distribution of money. As for Andrews, they were happy for Doreen to return but the children were not happy with the distribution of money and starts to show their feelings about it. None of them even bother to asked their mom how was their week. Doreen went passed the kitchen, disgust with her children’s behaviour and the messy house to the bedroom starting feeling sorry for herself and her family.
This show is really entertaining to watch. I remember one episode is where a family who are vegetarians and believes in animal rights as well as only eating fresh and raw vegetables swap their spouse for a family who likes by the woods and kill animals to survive especially during winter when they can’t drive out to the shops to buy their groceries. Another one which is interesting where a mother who dislikes homosexuals trade one week of her life to stay with a lesbian family. Boy, that one didn’t turn out good at all.
Now, if given the chance, would you want to swap your spouse with another for a week? Or do you think that the other side is greener and wants to give it a try? If yes, how do you think you will react? As for me, I don’t think I want to swap my Boss Darling for anyone.. not even for $1 million.. Eh wait.. $1 million? I think about it first.. hehe How about you?
Do your man actually listens to what you say? For me, my Boss Darling sometimes does listen to what I am talking about and at times, I find out he doesn’t actually listen to me although he does acknowledge me when I speak to him. Maybe because his mind switches everything that happens around him when he is watching his show, talking to his friends on MSN and when he is busy playing game (Latest craze now is Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars). Last time, I even joked with his mother, P.M.I.L that he would not budge from his computer even if there is a fire, earthquake, tornado or anything that can threaten his safety.
Lately, I find out something that never fails to amuse me. Are you a fan of South Park and 24 (TV series) which stars Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland)? Both of us were watching the episode of South Park actually shows something relate as 24 where Eric Theodore Cartman tries to stop the terrorist act in South Park. Like Jack, Eric also threatens the suspects in order to get the information that he needs.
SiwwyPig: Eh, this one looks like.. that.. hmmm TV series 24!
Boss Darling: hmm *sounds of agreement*
One minute later…
Boss Darling: *looks at SiwwyPig* You know that this is like the show 24...
SiwwyPig: -_-” *started to laugh* What did I tell you earlier…? I just like told you it was 24 a minute ago!
Boss Darling: huh? Really? okay.. *continues watching south park*
SiwwyPig: *shakes head*
Sometimes, when we were about to go back home from P.I.L’s or just going out from home, I would take his wallet and/or mobile with me while waiting for him by the door.
SiwwyPig: Darling, I took your mobile and/or wallet okay… You got the car keys right?
Boss Darling: Okay. *checks pocket* Ya, I got the car keys with me.
One minute later…
Boss Darling: *looking high and low for something* Have you seen my wallet and/or mobile?
SiwwyPig: -_-” I am holding it..
Boss Darling: Why take already never tell me leh…? Lets go then..
SiwwyPig: -_-” I…. never mind..
At times, I don’t know whether to laugh, cry or strangle my Boss Darling… sigh But one thing for sure, he is cute and funny at times. And at times, he does listen to what I said but then pretends that he is not listening. Then, he will suprise me… Sweet hor… I think so too… and he is all mine
