You do read the strangest things on this board. Complaining about repetitive lyrics in rock music?
A woman came up to me and said
"I'd like to poison your mind
With wrong ideas that appeal to you
Though I am not unkind."
She looked at me, I looked at something
Written across her scalp
And this is what it faintly said
As I tried to call for help:
There's only one thing
That I know how to do well
And I've often been told
that you only can do
What you know how to do well
And that's be you
Be what you're like
Be like yourself
And so I'm having a wonderful time
But I'd rather be whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
There's only one that that I like
And that is whistling in the dark.
A man came up to me and said
"I'd like to change your mind
By hitting with a rock," he said,
"Though I am not unkind."
We laughed at his little joke
and then I merrily walked away
And banged my head on the wall of the jail
Where the two of us live today.
There's only one thing
That I know how to do well
And I've often been told
that you only can do
What you know how to do well
And that's be you
Be what you're like
Be like yourself
And so I'm having a wonderful time
But I'd rather be whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
There's only one that that I like
And that is whistling in the dark.
There's only one thing
That I know how to do well
And I've often been told
that you only can do
What you know how to do well
And that's be you
Be what you're like
Be like yourself
And so I'm having a wonderful time
But I'd rather be whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling, whistling
Whistling in the dark.

Even though it's in regular rotation on my MP3 player, I'm still groovin' on it after first hearing it here some six years ago. It's also a GREAT song to use as a fear-nothing motivator while skiing.
