Ear Worm

It is like every other day, you’re minding your own work, except, today isn’t every other day, for your evil friend, “Satan” is here to visit you and dig a hell into your brains. The bastard sits in your head and hums “la blah blah di la”, a tune to a song you’d have heard a thousand times, only today you can’t seem to remember it.

The tune keeps buzzing in a loop, you know the lyrics, but, you don’t. It keeps hindering and makes you anxious, it feels like you are the tree and the bloody woodpecker wont stop pecking. What’s looping is the most favorite part of the song, now that’s going to leave you really agonizing. You are more desperate to find the song now. And so you go on to guess some artist and start going through their entire library.

“Oh may be another artist”

Yeah, it’s not going to happen, the more you think of it the more annoying it gets, so bruh, you take Chill Pill and get back to your work, yeah it’s still going to be a little annoying, that’s aright, because if you keep thinking about it will eat you out.

And just when you’ve forgotten about the ear worm as you got busy minding work, it comes to you, the blurred lyrics that you were itching to find out some time ago. Can’t even express how good that feels, you just want to hit that loop button on Spotify and it let play.
