Songs of My Misspent Youth: Army Of Me

Would I trade the misspent time in my life? No. So this week I'll hone in on all the times I had to use anything, including Army of Me by Björk, to get myself to stand up. Is taking total responsibility for every single one of my moods and not expecting anyone else to fix me a bad thing? Not for me, but I wouldn't say anyone else should do it. So when you see Björk wearing some crazy dress or talking about what her television is doing to her brain, remember she made angsty girls in the '90s do stuff they might not have otherwise, and so all that time wasn't really wasted.

Stand up
You've got to manage
I won't sympathize
Anymore

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

You're alright
There's nothing wrong
Self sufficience please!
And get to work

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

You're on your own now
We won't save you
Your rescue squad
Is too exshausted

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
