I Hope They Play Judas Priest in My Retirement Home

"Oh, so hot, no time to take a rest, yeah

Act tough, ain't no room for second best

Real strong, got me some security

Hey, I'm a big smash, I'm goin' for infinity"

Driving into work today Judas Priest's "You've Got Another thing Coming" popped into my mix. Its a song I use for my runs because it has a pounding beat and help me push through the slow spots.

"If you think I'll sit around as the world goes by

You're thinkin' like a fool 'cause it's a case of "do or die"

Out there is a fortune, waitin' to be had

You think I'll let it go? You're mad"

I got to thinking about where all of this music will be in twenty-five to thirty years. AC/DC, Motley Crue, Metallica, real hard bands with real hard music. I have a hopeful thought about me, forty years from now at the nursing home sitting in my adult diaper, eating my apple sauce, being forced to rewatch episodes of Friends, but rocking out to Van Halen with absolute abandon...

"You've got another thing comin'

You got another thing comin'

You got another thing comin'

You've got another thing"

Up yours old age, I'm fighting back.
