Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire til dawn
With a deck of 51
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo....

My packrat brain has reminded me that the lyrics of this old song might have some unintended and heightened resonance with these modern times. 🥺

I keep hearin' you're concerned
about my happiness
But all that thought you're givin' me
is conscience, I guess
If I were walkin' in your shoes
I wouldn't worry none
While you & your friends are worryin' about me
I'm havin' lots of fun
Countin' flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn
with a deck of 51
Smokin' cigarettes & watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do
