Description from sunny chick: Day four of beading prison . . . just biding our time.
"Flowers on the Wall" by the Statler Brothers.
I keep hearin' you're concerned about my happiness
But all that thought you're givin' me is conscience I guess
If I was walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none
While you 'n' your friends are worried about me I'm havin' lots of fun
Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
Eatin' candybars and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do
Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town
As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down
So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doin' fine
You can always find me here, I'm havin' quite a time
Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
Eatin' candybars and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do
It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright
Anyway my eyes are not accustomed to this light
And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete
So I must go back to my cell and make my day complete
Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
Eatin' candybars and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do

Eeka Mouse says:nice bright pick! glad to see you’re not stir-crazy yet… btw, I thought it was ‘Last night I dressed in tails for din-din, I was on the town’ – I never was too good at deciphering lyrics.
