Shawn Colvin "Sunny Came Home"

You never want to be a buzzkill. The guy who explains the magic trick. The kid on the playground that tells you the truth about how those presents get under the Christmas tree. The nerd who wants to set you straight about your incorrect view of the modern Star Wars trilogy.

A friend of mine, who's in the Program, told me that she thought this song had something to do with Alcoholics, because there's a line in the lyrics that she had heard in AA, having to do with "transcendence."

I think a reading of the lyrics and a look the album cover, might lead you to a fully different conclusion.

But why say, "I think your interpretation, which seems to bring you comfort, will be proven to be incorrect of you were to examine these facts which I will lay out for you"?

Unless you're an ass.
