In high school I played guitar and "sang" in a band, and, as we all liked Blondie, we attempted to play one of their songs. While hammering away at the D and G chords (and fumbling to that tricky B-minor), I had nary a qualm warbling:
"When I met you in the restaurant, you could tell I was no debutante..."
I write this to say that even back then I was comfortable enough in my masculinity to croon before God and the girls in my high school about my status as a debutante; so I equally have no worries with this morning's earworm. On the beat, scooping coffee into the filter, I proudly (and loudly) bellowed:
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me.
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera,
What will be, will be."
