Ever dreamt in your cube? Try it...you can dream in style...

I'm sure most of you who watch the previous clip had a good laugh. LOLz! I sure did ;p

Anyway, here something different today. A friend emailed me this song just now, but I couldn't embed it in here cause it's been disabled by request.

Do watch it. It's called Cube Dreamin', original composition and animation by Ivan Lim. Nope, not this Ivan - though I wish it was ;p The song apparently won an award at the ITV Awards Music Night. Though someone needs to tell me what an "ITV Awards Music Night" is all about.

The lyrics to the song as follows. I guess those of us sitting in cubes everyday working our asses off can relate to what the song is about.
It was just another day at the usual pace,
I'm sitting in my cube in the same old place.
I see the same old docking station,
the same old job in the same old situation.

Work grows, it's always like that,
the more time I have, it seems, the more work I get.
I sit alone and wonder why
it's been so long since I got to see the sky...

I'm sure, that you're just like me.
We all have our issues with our WLB.
But wait, there is a way,
to get you through the rest of the day...

and it's called:

Cube dreamin', you're dreaming in style,
I'll show you how to do it and it won't take a while,
you just lie back in your ergo chair,
take a deep breath of the office air,
and close your eyes and start cube dreamin' away...

I dream of pretty places where I'd like to be,
I'm lying on the sands on the beach by the sea.
With a warm breeze blowing at me,
it feels so good to be free...

and as I was dreamily watching the tides,
a pretty young lady comes and sits by my side,
and she looks at me with those pretty eyes,
tell me, what was I to do, when she said:
"Come with me now baby I wanna be with you..."

and then I wake up, to find that things are not what they seem.
I see my T41, that stupid machine,
it's got another fatal error, another blue screen.
I guess I'll just restart, then go back and dream....

'cause I'd rather do:
Cube dreamin', I'm dreaming in style,
I'll show you how to do it and it won't take a while.
you just lie back in your ergo chair,
take a deep breath of the office air,
and close your eyes and start cube dreamin' away...

I close my eyes, and start cube dreamin' away...
