dreams unlived, yet: 3 good friends in the spur of a moment

I was talking to Paul today over gtalk and complaining a bit about work. He asked me 'don't you want to start out something yourself?' I was like.. 'u mean like a revolution?' I mean Rachael and Yinky have been very instrumental in my dreams with their friendship, music, encouragement and dreamy status. And the Oasis song popped right into my head.

start a revolution from my BED.

well in the spur of a moment I replied Paul 'ah, a revolution from my bed! wow a sleeping revolution!' and moments later, Joel shared some work related dreams and his dreams while noble, r not exciting for me. I was really getting into the mood for this sleeping revolution.

I've had dreams and desires to do different movements, been involved with boring and exciting social movement networks, from HIV to religious ones to mainstream youth related, etc. But this one is pretty new and very workable. Nobody starts a movement that aims to do NOTHING. This is it. this is the coolest revolution u can ever take part in. And its the easiest-or the hardest.

The yummy lyrics Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play
You said that you'd never been
But all the things that you've seen
Will slowly fade away

So I start a revolution from my bed
'Cos you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

And so Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger I heard you say

Take me to the place where you go
Where nobody knows if it's night or day
But please don't put your life in the hands
Of a Rock n Roll band
Who'll throw it all away

I'm gonna start a revolution from my bed
'Cos you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside 'cos summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
'Cos you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away, but don't look back in anger I heard you say

So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger I heard you say

So Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as shes walking on by
My soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
I heard you say

At least not today
