Prudence's Pink Parody & Return~ Read if You Care, Loves

Post by Prudence »

Please Note:
This is just me being the silly overly-analytical dork that I am. :)



"I Might As Well Have Been Killed"
Prudence (the Animated)'s Parody of Pink's "Pill" Song


I'm lying here on the floor, head still pounding;
I know I work myself too much.
I do not cry, but lords, what have I done?
What have I simply done?

I can't stand all castle staff support,
They simply shorten my nerve's switch!
I can't stand these sword fights,
They simply make me itch!

I can't bring myself to accept help,
Yes, I know I'm a bitch!
My whole life was built on this palace here...

And yet I run, run as fast as I can,
Until my heart is nowhere,
Until my body awakes in bed.

And I swear, friends and success
May thrill, but this doesn't feel improved!
I might as well have been killed!
I might as well have been killed!

It takes moving mountains
To move my decisions,
But the largest mountain can move in a trip.
Cause-and-effect is preposterously random;

Pride still shan't let me ask for help.

I can't stand all castle staff support,
They simply shorten my nerve's switch!
I can't stand these sword fights,
They simply make me itch!

I can't bring myself to accept help,
Yes, I know I'm a bitch!
My whole life was built on this palace here...

And yet I run, run as fast as I can,
Until my heart is nowhere,
Until my body awakes in bed.

And I swear, friends and success
May thrill, but this doesn't feel improved!
I might as well have been killed!
I might as well have been killed!

Run, run as fast as I can,
Until my heart is nowhere,
Until my body awakes in bed.

And I swear, friends and success
May thrill, but this doesn't feel improved!
I might as well have been killed!
I might as well have been killed!

I can't stand all castle staff support,
They simply shorten my nerve's switch!
I can't stand these sword fights,
They simply make me itch!

I can't bring myself to accept help,
Yes, I know I'm a bitch!
My whole life was built on this palace here...

And yet I run, run as fast as I can,
Until my heart is nowhere,
Until my body awakes after days in bed.

And I swear, friends and success
May thrill, but this doesn't feel improved!
I might as well have been killed!
I might as well...

Run! Run as fast as I can,
Until my heart is nowhere,
Until my body awakes in bed.

And I swear, friends and success
May thrill, but this doesn't feel improved!
I might as well have been killed!
I might as well have been killed!

I'll simply always just run as fast as I can,
Until my heart is nowhere
If it ever was anywhere but for my position.

I realize this is something of an exaggeration, but it had to rhyme. She was having a bad day. We'll go with that.

- - -

I am back. I am out of school, with a BMA (associate's in business management; I am nineteen years of age and too eager to start full-time work to continue being a full-time student for now). In ten days from now, I become supervisor of a bait store due to the assistant above me moving and the previous supervisor retiring. The bait store is dirty and monotonous and I'm very sick of all the pirate songs that are played. I like Flogging Molly and Great Big Sea as much as the next person, but hearing screaming drunken pirates all the livelong day gets to be plum irritating.

I'm especially tired of the song that sounds like it's screaming, "ABORTING IN THE STREETS! ABORTING IN THE STREETS! LEAVE THE ANCHOR, MEN, WE'RE ABORTING IN THE STREETS!" over and over and over.

But I have always been addicted to working hard for its benefits, and I feel very proud of myself for what I have accomplished in my thus far short life.

Brings me to a point, though. I apologize for my assumed vanity, you guys. A lot of it is my inborn neuro-social impairment; I know I often said that was no excuse to a number of other members here who used the same excuse... I've since come to see that it can indeed be a true excuse at times. Another lot of it is, as a good friend says, "A desire to want to be seen as all right, or in your case, above and beyond 'all right.'"

Anyway, to everyone that I annoyed before, I apologize. I also apologize in advance for not checking over this post for spelling and/or grammatical errors.

Now, for what matters...

I HAVE MISSED YOU PEOPLE! ♥♥♥♥♥♥

I have had so much on my plate like you wouldn't believe, enough to not leave this semi-gothic modern aristocrat career chick hardly any free time.

Remembering this place literally brought tears to my eyes. I genuinely, deeply LOVE you guys... and I am so sorry for not popping myself in a few times to tell you that I am still living...

Mason, I love you so much that my little heart pricks up like it has little antennae at the thought, but to be perfectly honest, I had to block you from my instant messengers because you had just turned into nothing but a headache when conversing on them.

This was you:
"What should I put in my suitcase? What should I put in my suitcase? What should I put in my suitcase?" times twenty.

Honey, clothes. Essentials. A brain.

I love you forever, regardless of whether or not anything will ever happen; it's me, not you. Know that.

- - -

I'm so glad to be back. I'm like a boomerang, you know. I always make useless bounce-backs when no one expects me to do so.


P.S.

I am now on medication that is basically supposed to make certain I don't overwork myself or go into hyperactive stressed mode and then overwork myself all the more, so can anyone tell me why 3/9 of the pills are made up of caffeine of all things?

Welcome back Prudence! :

Very happy to know you have completed your degree, much happier to know that you found work as soon as possible! I finished my BA last year, working on my master's and I am STILL unemployed! :(

But enough about me, its all about you!

Thank you... and thank you for remembering me in another thread!

I had been working a number of part-time jobs while in school, and this job was given to me because of my friendship with the assistant that's moving. I was hired at first as a test, to see how well I could do assigned jobs. I finished in two days what took the others over a week. It got to the point that my main boss was insisting I take days off to rest because I was ahead of everyone... including herself. For that sort of thing (which has all my life often enough resulted in making me physically ill) and for ultra rapid cycling bipolar disorder, I am medicated now. I am so strange; I actually like being medicated. I'm not suffering from any horrible side-effects, and I'm notably more relaxed now which is very good for someone who has spent her whole life unable to relax. It feels like I'm actually able to accomplish more since my mind is clearer and not so hell-bent on metaphorically and literally plowing through everything around me out of a need to assert my worth. Thanks a heap, parents and others from childhood and adolescence that never appreciated me.

This past afternoon, two men failed to show up for work and I had to fill in for them. "Their jobs usually take them all day on a good day. For you, I predict one hour," is what I was told.

I had a friend count time.

One hour and twenty-eight minutes.

Oh please, I never truly liked things being all about me. That's just ridiculous, no matter who started the topic. I'm not that kind of girl, believe it or not.

:) Best of luck to you!

In case anyone is curious, here is a sample of the music played at my work; this is one of the least annoying examples:

Twas actually dancing a little jig and singing along to the chorus with this one whilst taking inventory the other day.

Prudence Returns!

Post by Disney Duster »

WELL...

It is about time....

I am really, really, really glad you are back!!!

WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Nice little song there, except, never thought you died. But I guess it shows us Prudence must have a tough life, and you actually had a tough life...

I could not stand being around fishing and bait stuff, so do you like that kind of things at all? Or maybe something about the work you must do is not too hard or unlikebale for you at all. They should think about putting some contemporary, popular, non-sailor-related songs in the mix. Since you do so much for them, I'm sure if you asked they could do a bit of something like that for you...

Never thought you had any vanity either, at least nothing that bothered me. You're really smart and cool and just really good and excel at so much, it's just the truth. By inborn neurol-social impairment, do you mean the aspie thing or something else, and if you don't want to go into it here, you can pm me!

Hey, stop working so hard, and working so damn fast! Everyone is of worth just existing as the special people they are, but you especially Prudence, are of worth simply being around. And I can never see anyone saying any different, but don't let nobody tell you different anyway. You're better than them anyway, who cares about their opinion, they're jusst jealous. I am totally not helping with the vanity thing if you ever had any, haha.

I am so glad you are using medicine to your advantage and you are feeling better with it.

WELCOME BAAAAAAACCKK!!!!!!!!

It's just a parody. The "killed" line was actually the result of needing rhymes more than it was anything else.

I don't mind it. I don't even mind scooping the dead fish out of the fish tanks and feeding them to the crawdads. Where I'm working doesn't matter to me so long as I am effectively working at a job that's in my element, and any kind of business management is in my element especially if it involves friends or people who I feel like I owe.

As for the songs, I shouldn't complain, because I'm the one who changed the music through Pandora Radio to sailor songs. They were playing Evanescence and whatnot before, which just didn't match the atmosphere of the store one little bit. I still complain to myself, because anything becomes annoying if you put up with it for too long, and these songs are particularly loud.

You give me too much credit. I'm just a girl who wanted to rise above. That can eat me alive. I was referencing ASDs; as I mentioned to you, I go to a therapist now and it's his belief that I was misdiagnosed with Asperger's at the age of eight but that I do have Hyperlexia. Hyperlexia is basically the reverse of Dyslexia, which is all-around a good thing when it comes to book memorization. But Hyperlexia automatically places one somewhere on the ASD spectrum, though it by and of itself is as high-functioning as one gets... which is a good thing.

You're sweet, but you never grew up with a severely obsessive-compulsive mother who couldn't stand to see that you took after her own self and manipulated you into thinking you were useless as a child, threatening to place you in a mental ward unless you went above and beyond everyone else. You didn't leave for college at sixteen because you couldn't take one more minute of your abusive home life. Obviously, her actions still impact me and they probably always will. That can't be changed.

But I can make the best of it, as we all can take lemons and make crappy lemon friendship bracelets to give to our friends. Or lemonade, whichever works best for you.

I am so glad that you are such a compassionate person! Thank you again!

I actually saw this thread last night, but I felt it would be awkward to be the second person to post for some reason. :oops: But, yeah, I'm definitely glad to see you back. I remember one day just thinking, "I guess Prudence finally left now." That's why I nearly had a heart attack seeing your name everywhere when I came on--"She's alive?!" :P

:lol: Oh, but I'm a boomerang. I always bounce back up when least expected... which might indeed bring about heart attacks for everyone else, I suppose. Surely you must have known.

Everyone at work started singing and dancing to this yesterday. I think I'm glad that I wasn't the "old wife" as my fate would most likely have been the same!

He fed her kerosene?!

I'm actually off work today, for the first full day since I started at this place. So if you want to talk to me, this might be your longest chance for a while.
