[Ben Folds Five - Your Most Valuable Possession lyrics]

(6: 49am, Friday November 20th)
Good morning Mr Ben it's, er, about 6: 30
Winston-Salem, North Carolina erm
Just lying here in the bed, half-awake
Half-asleep thinkin' about you

I was er
Wondering if you were looking after your
Most valuable possession your mind

I was thinking about john Glenn
His space journey, y'know
He said that when you're in
Space you lose, uh, muscle mass
Body mass, and i wondered if there was any
End to it
Or whether if you did some exercise in space
How long it would be before you were just
A head, or a mind have no body or arm
You'd have 'em but you couldn't use 'em

And I was wondering if, uh

Your body mass would drop to a certain level
And then it would stop right there
Er, keep whatever you needed to use your mind

Because it would be working

Thirty seconds remain
Anyway, I was just ponderin' that
What do you think about?
Hope everything is going alright
I may wake up here in a little while
Forget what I was thinkin' about
