Been beat up and battered round Been sent up, and Ive been shot down

Artist- Jenny Lewis, Ben Gibbard, Conner Oberst
Song of the day- Handle Me with care

It seems only appropriate I play a Jenny Lewis song to send me to sleep the night before my last test in nursing school. And after this rough and tumbling week and the stress of tomorrows test I can't express how true this anthem is. At times much of nursing school and a lot of this week felt a lot like getting beat up every day till a few weeks till graduation has me hoping that my fragile body can possibly be handled with care. If you are feeling the same this one's for you. And if you care to remember, shoot some major prayers up for me tomorrow cuz I'm in need of major care handling from the man upstairs!



Been beat up and battered round
Been sent up, and Ive been shot down
Youre the best thing that Ive ever found
Handle me with care

Reputations changeable
Situations tolerable
Baby, you're adorable
Handle me with care

(chorus)
Im so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Wont you show me that you really care

(bridge)
Everybodys got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on

Ive been fobbed off, and Ive been fooled
Ive been robbed and ridiculed
In day care centers and night schools
Handle me with care

Been stuck in airports, terrorized
Sent to meetings, hypnotized
Overexposed, commercialized
Hand me with care

(chorus)

(bridge)

Ive been uptight and made a mess
But I'll clean it up myself, I guess
Oh, the sweet smell of success
Handle me with care
