Thinkin' so much my crowded head became sore
Fell back into the place I was before
Reasons long enough to not let show
I follow through this once because I said so

I think I got it all figured out
I think I got it made
I think I got it all figured out
I think my plan is safe from laughter
From laughter, no
I'll wait
I'll wait the day

Slowly I begin to come around
I woke up to a soft and subtle sound now
Someone is speaking one room away
Just loud enough so i can hear what they're sayin'
Sayin'

I think I got it all figured out
I think I got it made
I think I got it all figured out
I think my plan is safe from laughter
From laughter, no
I'll wait
I'll wait the day

And I watch what I say and I
Watch what I do and I
Watch what I say and I
Watch what I

I think I got it all figured out
I think I got it made
I think I got it all figured out
I think my plan is safe from laughter
From laughter
From laughter (I'll wait)
From laughter (I'll wait)
From laughter (I'll wait the day)
From laughter
I'll wait

I worked in London during the summer of 2003 and got a mixed CD 'for free' in a music mag.  They did that there/then...fun and fab.
This was one of the tracks in an eclectic mix and, despite my self-administered resist-the-pop, I came to enjoy the horns, lyrics & vibe.  No bad edges for me.  Think I've got it all figured out; think my plan is safe from laughter.  (HAH!  That will be the day for me.)

Good background music, for when you want to kill the silence but don't want to be moved or engaged in the least by the music.

Is that K.D. Lang on the album cover?


 
Maybe it's K.D. Lang after downing a glass of Alka-Seltzer. Whoever that is sure looks bilious.

His voice grates on me for some reason.

Agreed, irritating scratchy voice on a par with Oasis's Liam

Solid song, solid artist. Much needed after the James BLunt-sound-alike Powderfinger.

Old school Josh Rouse makes me smile. Lots of memories of this song.

Discovered this guy through Nashville-a wonderful country pop LP. And fun retro art cover.

I still cannot believe there is no Rouse from his finest album on RP, that being Dressed Up Like Nebraska.
