Singing with/out Chris Brown

Traffic was terrible this morning.  The kind of terrible that makes you contemplate calling in to work to let someone know that you're on your way.  But who do you call when you are the person who is supposed to be making sure that everyone else is not running late.  Regardless, there I was in my car singing to all sorts of poppy nonsense when Chris Brown's Forever came on.  I turned the volume in the opposite direction of said singers career (up) and got my sing on

- cue music-
"it's like I've waited my whole life
for this one night - it's gonna be me 
you and the dance floor.....
 Now at this point you are expecting to continue with 
cause we've only got one night
double your pleasure, double your fun
WRONG
 
You see my dears, those were there at one point.  That point was before Chris Brown became known as a wife beater.  Now the parent companies of Double Mint have a huge problem with Chris using their slogan as a part of his song and they've taken it out.  In it's place is nothing!  Well, not entirely nothing but no words to keep you going until you get to the annoyingly repetitive 
 
... and dance 
forever (ever, ever)
forever (ever, ever)
forever (ever, ever)
forever 

So there I was singing and we get to the double your pleasure part and I continued singing and there was nothing.  Nothing but shock and embarrassment.  It was a pain reminiscent of past singing experiences where cruel friends have changed songs while I was in mid melody and totally in the groove.  No longer was my voice hidden behind the real star, I was alone and shamed in my own car! UGH!
I felt mildly redeemed when for no reason at all the song seemed to get cut short by Rihanna's new song S&M.  Take that Chris Brown.  Take it!

  1. This all could have been avoided had you made your daily morning phone call to a certain someone. Nonetheless, this proves my point even further that you're prob the only to notice lyrics missing as well as what those lyrics are. (You owe me karaoke)
