Direct Orders

You've been given direct orders to rock out.

Rock out like it's Christmas morning. Rock out like it's summer. Rock out like it's 2:14. Rock out like the roller coaster just pulled up and you're next in line. Rock out like it's your best birthday ever. Rock out like it's the last day of school. Rock out like mom and dad just said yes. Rock out like it's your favorite song on the radio. Rock out like it's the end of your shift. Rock out like there's an 80 degree high for the day. Rock out like it's 2:30am and you have four more hours to sleep. Rock out like it's Thursday night an there's no early morning tomorrow. Rock out like you are in love. Rock out like you just won a new car. Rock out like the streets are empty except for you and you're headphones. Rock out like you just quit your job. Rock out like he's on one knee. Rock out like you just won the big game. Rock out like you're in debt to your eyeballs and just won the lottery. Rock out like you just got asked to Prom by your sweet love. Rock out like you'll never have a textbook again. Rock out like you just won a scholarship. Rock out like it's Sunday night and tomorrow's a national holiday. Rock out like it's pay day. Rock out like your deceased grandpa just came back to take a drive with you in your new car. Rock out like you just found out you're in remission. Rock out like you have a full tank of gas. Rock out like you just got accepted to the college of your dreams. Rock out like it's raining outside. Rock out like you're skydiving. Rock out like your parents told you they're proud. Rock out like you just got your leg cast off. Rock out like you love your life. Rock out like somebody's got a gun pointed at you saying, "Rock out like your life depended on it." because it does.

Rock out.
