Today's theme song is brought to you by
Judy Garland and by
those moments,
maybe days,
possibly years,
when you know exactly who you are and need no one else's opinions to feel good about yourself.
on a side note: how gorgeous is her dress?!
Only a legend like Judy Garland could fling her arms around like that and still look amazing.
If it was me singing and dancing it would be a very different story.
the audience would be thinking,
"Girl, you better care! Fling'n your arms all over the place like a crazy person...throwing off everyone's groove..."
Judy Garland
"I Don't Care" from
"In the Good Old Summertime." (1949)
Lyrics
They say I'm crazy
Got no sense
But I don't care
They may or may not mean offense
But I don't care
You see, I'm sort of independent
I am my own superintendent
And my star is on the ascendant
That's why I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
What they may think of me
I'm happy-go-lucky, they say that I'm plucky
Contented and carefree
I don't care I don't care
If I do get a mean and stony stare
If I'm not successful
It won't be distressful
Cause I don't care
A girl should know her etiquette
Alas, alack
Propriety demands we walk a narrow track
When fellas used to blink at me
I'd freeze 'em and they'd shrink at me
But now when fellas wink at me
I wink at them right back!
I don't care I don't care
If people frown on me
Perhaps it's the lone way
But I go my own way
That's my philosophy
I don't care I don't care
If he's clerk or just a millionaire
There's no doubt about it,
I'll sing and I'll shout it
Cause I don't care
Oh, I don't care, I don't care
When it comes to happiness,
I want my share
Don't try to rearrange me
There's nothing can change me
'cause I don't care!
