ABC Wednesday, J for Jungle



 It's a jungle out there
Disorder and confusion everywhere
No one seems to care
Well I do
Hey, who's in charge here?
It's a jungle out there
Poison in the very air we breathe
Do you know what's in the water that you drink?
Well I do, and it's amazing
People think I'm crazy, 'cause I worry all the time
If you paid attention, you'd be worried too
You better pay attention
Or this world we love so much might just kill you
I could be wrong now, but I don't think so!
'Cause there's a jungle out there.
It's a jungle out there.

 

 

Mr. Monk! Who doesn't know him? The super intelligent detective with the many phobias. He is strange but endearing. The more you see him the more you like him...

With thanks to Denise Nesbitt,  who created ABC, and Roger, who took over from her. For more interesting ABC posts click on the logo in the sidebar. This week we are looking for words beginning with J

I have heard of the show, but can't get it on any of my channels. I must get the dvd's though. Love the song! Have a joyful week, Wil,

I used to watch Monk too and enjoyed his quirkiness.

Monk is new to me, but sadly, I think he is right!

Oddly, Bungle in the Jungle by Jethro Tull is now playing in my brain.

Monk was on my must see list. Sorry that they cancelled his series. I still occasionally watch the reruns.

Nice find the topic for J "Jungle".

I discovered that you and I used the word 'jungle'! I had forgotten Monk's theme song. I love it. Visiting my therapist a few months after my husband had died, I remarked to her, "I wished I done like Monk, keep my husband's pillow in a plastic bag." Thankfully, she knew exactly to what I was referring!

Can't remember I've ever seen Monk. But I know enough people think it's a jungle out there:)

Love the choice for the letter ...we loved loved that show and were sad when it got over.. and the theme was perfect! I checked out the tapes from the library and we watched the last a couple of seasons again.

Poetic but sad and true words.

I once read somewhere Wil that the water in the River Thames has been through the human body eight times before it reaches the sea.
