I Got a New Bed (to the tune of “I Want a New Drug” by Huey Lewis and the News).

I got a new bed
It’s a pretty good lay
It’s got high thread count sheets
And the cutest green duvet

I got a new bed
One that will help me rest
Now there’s one bed for me
And another for a guest

It will help me sleep well
My back will never bruise
But when that alarm goes off
I totally hit the snooze

(I totally hit the snooze)

I got a new bed
It’s a nice size
It feels good on the skin
It’s okay on the eyes

I got a new bed
I’m pleased to announce
And although it’s pretty solid
I’d rather you not bounce

It’s fun to fall asleep now
Definitely not a chore
Too bad it can’t shut me up
When I start to snore

(When I start to snore)

(Guitar and saxophone jam)

I got a new bed
It fits about right
You can doze off to sleep
Or have a pillow fight

I got a new bed
It’s really quite soft
It helps me dream of Angelina
Being all Lara Croft

Now I’m not looking for attention
Don’t want you to shed a tear
But it’s fair to say
I’ll be eating ramen for a year

(I’ll be eating ramen for a year)

(Guitar and saxophone jam, repeat, fade out)

Nicely done.  I bet your duvet is super cute!

I don’t know what makes me love this post more, the fact that I can sing along with it OR that you used Huey Lewis and the News.  Maybe it’s both.  Enjoy the bed.

High thread count sheets - our boy’s growing up. sniff::sniff.

Now I know what to get you for your birthday, late though it may be. A case of Ramen noodles coming your way. Plus a Burger King gift card.

I’m happy that you’re happy

I love the word duvet.

I’m glad you got a new bed!  I hope you didn’t have to promise your firstborn for it.

As Sheryl Crow says… Love is free. Here’s to good lovin’ on your new bed!

Wait, didn’t you just get a new bed like a month or two ago? Are you stockpiling those bad boys now, Princess?

You know, it’s entirely possible that I find this more entertaining than “I Want A New Duck”. I’m not saying I do necessarily; I just need to think it through.

That was classic.  Wish I could say more but it would ruin the moment.
