Bright Eyes

andys nokia 072
It was Darrell’s shift with Sandra the Resources Lady yesterday and after a maahoosively busy morning, where Darrell swears that they must have used at least six boxes of paper and twelve toners, Sarah, one of other lovely Office Ladies, asked him if he would like to go for a little drive to look at the rabbits at the Garden Centre and as she said “Blow away some of the cobwebs”

Well, Darrell didn’t need asking twice, but before they left, a little puzzled, Darrell had a quick look round the office for any cobwebs that needed blowing away.

The Lovely Sarah says that as soon as Darrell saw all the rabbits he became entranced …..

……. and started humming …. quite loudly …..

…… and it doesn’t take a genius to guess what he was humming!

Sarah said that in the end she managed to “block it out” Darrell’s humming by humming another tune to herself (in her head, not aloud!). However, on the journey back to school Darrell swopped from humming to singing and Sarah said that she found herself compulsively drawn to singing along with him at the top of her voice, in the car, with all the windows open, without a care in the world and to the amusement of all the other drivers …… (she also realised that if they had auditioned as a duo for X Factor,  Gary Barlow would not been invited them back to Boot Camp!)

Now, in case you can’t guess what they were murdering humming and singing and at very great risk of putting the tune in your head for the rest of the day….. it was Bright Eyes!
Is it a kind of dream, Floating out on the tide,
Following the river of death downstream?
Oh, is it a dream? There's a fog along the horizon,
A strange glow in the sky, And nobody seems to know where you go,And what does it mean? Oh, is it a dream?
Bright eyes, Burning like fire.                                             
Bright eyes,How can you close and fail
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes.
 
Got yer!

It is stuck in my head too! I will put some Wagner on to change the tune.
One scary office - looks like Halloween come early. Better have a word with the cleaners.
Swanning off during the school day? Can't be bad.

I must admit I thought the tune you were singing was Run Rabbit, Run Rabbit....
