Steemit Open Mic Week 78 - Acoustic Remake Of King Diamond's "Mother's Getting Weaker"

in #openmic6 years ago

Greetings Steemians!

I'm back with the next chapter in King Diamond's eerie saga of "Them" with the song "Mother's Getting Weaker". I havr been feeling ill off and on and was unsure whether I would even participate this week, but I muddled through on this one and it seems to have turned out well enough.

lyrics:
Tonight would be the last night that we had our tea
That bloody tea, which sent us into ecstasy
Yesterday Mother complained, feeling dizzy, all in pain
Mother's getting weaker, looking paler day by day
As morning came, she could not make it out of bed
And Grandma's spell was getting straight into her head
Not a single word, she didn't seem to be alive
Getting weaker, looking paler day by day
Then Missy came in and she led me by the hand
I didn't want to go, Oh but I should have known
Mother was barely conscious, why should I care
Just looking forward to the next ordeal
I think I heard My sister begging me to stay
She gave me the phone, so I could call someone for help
I simply let go of her hand, then I cut the wire
Missy was crying as I left them both behind
And Mother's getting weaker, Missy shouted at
My back "I hate you"

Songwriters: Andy La Rocque / Kim Bendix Petersen

As you can see the young King is fully under the spell of Grandma and "Them" with their evil tea ;)

Rock U!

Muchas gracias hermano \m/

Man rock is in the house \m/ this is very good

Thanks man!

So awesome you are doing this! Hope you are feeling better \m/

Thanks man! I need to go to the doc and find out what's going on. I am thinking I may have dieted and exercised my type 2 diabetes away and the pills are causing me problems now.

Yeah sounds crazy bro. I really hate going to the doc or hospitals. They just creep me out. I hope you have a good doc that will help you and not just throw meds around

Yeah me too. He's new to me since I've only lived here a year and I hope he's honest with me. I've been checking my sugar regularly and it's been staying within normal, non diabetic ranges. That is still with the medicine, so we'll have to see what's up. Metformin is the drug I take and I think he either needs to reduce the dose or take me off it completely. The side effects can be shitty if I don't actually need it.

Yeah there is always a trade off with medicines. Sounds like you have won a major battle with diabetes so far. I wish you the best in this next one. This soldier of metal raises his glass to you 💀

\m/ Raises my horn \m/

Thank you \m/

Wow, you rocked it. Great job! :)

Thank you so much :)
