Last night I remember looking at my cell phone at 11:25 and thinking, "If I hurry, I can be asleep by 11:30." As I have shared with you before, once my feet leave the floor, I can be asleep in a matter of minutes. Within seconds of laying down I heard a loud "clink" outside. I'm a fairly curious person but my feet had already left the floor and I was fading f-a-s-t. When I woke up at 4:11 AM I had the intuition to walk to the window and look outside. Yes, something was clearly different. I turned around and scanned my space. Then I looked outside my door and into the hallway. Just to make certain, I even opened the door and walked out into the hallway instead of looking out the window that is on my door. Then I stood in the hallway and said, "RATS!" Actually I said it more like, "Rats!" without all the capital letters. I came back inside and pulled the blind up to get a better look and there it wasn't. My bike wasn't there as usual, which is usually locked around the street light with my ultra-nuclear-betcha-can't-break-this-lock.

So I called the police non-emergency line and filed a report on my stolen bicycle, then typed up a note and posted it on the inner door of the building to alert the neighbors what happened. I live in a secure building that requires a code. I ended the note with this statement, "The moral of the story is: Don’t leave your bike outside overnight and I guess I’m getting a new bike." Folks, I'm a low-drama type of gal. I just don't dig on the struggle and I certainly don't care to make something all big and dramatic. I don't happen to be a person that needs 'that' kind of attention. Seconds after I said, "Rats!" I thought to myself, "Oh, okay. I guess my transportation needs are changing. Cool." I immediately reaffirmed my belief that whatever form of transportation I received next had to be 'better than' what I had simply because I welcome 'better than' into my Life. I suppose if I believed negatively and thought things would be worse, then that would be what I would be open to receiving. Not this gal, I will not even go there. Folks, it's just a bike and it is completely replaceable. It is also part of my belief system that I remain unattached to personal possessions. It's okay.

So this had to be Good. Folks, I really do believe that everything happens for a reason, so I immediately chose to get excited about the reason, whatever that reason happened to be. I said to God, "If this is what I've been dealt, then okay, let's do it." It was now 5:11 and I had a couple of hours before Ashley (my trainer) was to arrive at 7:30, so I had breakfast and did my usual morning routine, then started researching bicycles online when I received a DLG (Download from God) to be open to my new transportation being FREE. I said outloud, "Okay" and remembered that it was going to be 'better than' what I had and then immediately stopped researching bicycles online. At 7:30 Ashley was knocking on the door and Jonathan (a neighbor) was just leaving the building. Suddenly I had a flash of this teal colored bicycle in my head so I quickly called out to Jonathan. Before he was able to read the note on the door I told him what happened and then asked him if knew whose teal colored bicycle was downstairs in the basement. Jonathan, Kate and I are the longest tenants in the building and it wasn't mine and it wasn't Kate's. Jonathan smiled and said, "Now it's yours." because it wasn't his either.

After Ashley and I finished my workout at 9:00 I talked with the property manager and she said it was abandoned property so basically, "Now it's yours." I was so excited! From the time I woke up to just five hours later I had a new bike that was 'better than' the one I had. By 9:30 I had the bicycle all cleaned up, the chains oiled and the tires filled with air. Even more, my stolen bicycle was a 7 speed and my new bicycle is a 21 speed. How cool is that? And by the way, what the heck am I supposed to do with all those gears? So I called the bicycle shop and gave them the model number and found this new bike is not only worth much more than the bike I had but now I have a racing bike where before I had a mountain bike. When I hung up the phone I smiled and said to God, "A racing bike huh! Now where is this bike going to take me?" I guess I'll find the reason when I get there. (winky wink)

Oh my Goodness I received a lot of e-mails about yesterday's Daily Message (DM). Actually folks, I had so many e-mails about that DM that it had to be a record response from a DM. Pretty cool. It seems you all enjoyed the teaching through politics and I'll have to do that more often. By the time I finished a reading with my last client of the day I caught the debate about 30 minutes late. I ended up watching it online (on the MSNBC website) because I don't have Cable TV. I watch most programs online because I flat out refuse to buy Cable TV. First, I just refuse to pay for something that I can get online for FREE. Second, I get Netflix for $18.31 a month so I don't need the movie channels. Third, I would not be able to stop watching ESPN's Sport Center and I would sit like a zombie watching the Fox News Ticker Tape at the bottom of the screen and watching political banter all day. Yeah, I'm like that! I have no self-control with Cable TV so I opt out of that system for some Good ol' fashion mental self-preservation.

Now I really do not intend to get into my preferences on politics because I can really go off on this topic. After all, I did host a radio show called, "And What Do You Think?" that revolved around politics and current events including local, national and global affairs. Notice how I put my Gemini-ness in the title of the show since the Gemini motto is, "I think therefore I AM." Oh I was really in the trenches on that show. This website is simply not the forum for political banter. I just want you all to witness the astrologic patterns first hand. I saw the playback of Hillary bringing up the SNL (Saturday Night LIVE) parody on how the media caters to Barack Obama. I yelled out, "Of course they do because he has a Moon in Gemini (media and communication)." She seems to forget they did the same thing with her husband Bill who has a North Node in Gemini. HELLO! And of course she has lucked out with media because of her Part of Fortune in Gemini simply by being in the same political arena or the same room for that matter. Remember all of her remarks about her strength? Well Hillary has Mars in Leo, which is the absolute strongest placement for Mars. (I have Mars in Leo too. We Mars in Leo people rarely run short on energy and we're up early too.) Mars is power and Leo is leadership which equals "powerful leader." We are physically strong people and can even put a couch on our back and run up a flight of stairs. Oh yeah, it's a lot of energy. When people ask where I get all of my energy I say, "Mars in Leo baby!" When Barack Obama says he Loves his family and worked for families . . . folks, he has Venus (Love) in Cancer (home and family). You better believe he Loves his family and his homeland too. Barack Obama has Mars in Virgo so he is powerful and aggressive about healthcare because Virgo rules health.

I will be writing more about "Politics and Astrology" as we keep moving forward because John McCain's chart fascinates me too knowing he was a prisoner of war for 5-1/2 years and actually turned down preferential treatment as a prisoner so he didn't lower the other prisoners morale. Let me tell you something folks, that guy is straight as an arrow . . he's straighter than a line. Uh, can you say, "inflexible Virgo" . . I mean a straight line and doesn't bend. He's a whole lot of Virgo (Mercury, Neptune and Sun in Virgo). AND John McCain has Mars in Leo (powerful leader). His Venus (Love) is in Virgo (health), so his second wife (Cindy) was a missionary nurse. She inherited her family's very wealthy business and there's nothing wrong with that. Good for her and she does a bang up job with it too. Nothing wrong with a businesswoman who can handle what she's doing plus knows exactly what she's doing. More on the politics of astrology later.

On another note -- it seems I need to make another gentle reminder NOT to send me any forwards. Folks, I cannot be any more clear than by making a firm statement of PLEASE DO NOT ADD ME TO YOUR FORWARD LIST. When I e-mail back and ask to be removed then someone always gets their feelings hurt. This is not something to take personal, especially when e-mail doesn't reflect tone. It's just a forward that I don't have time to read. I answer my own phone, I do intuitive readings and health consults every day (even during the Scorpio Moon, winky wink) and I answer on average +/-450 legitimate e-mails a day. Folks, I'm telling you that I don't open a forward except to just hit respond and ask to be taken off. I even have a message in bold red on my contact button that says, PLEASE DO NOT ADD ME TO YOUR FORWARD LIST. I cannot tell you how much time it takes for me to write a response to be taken off and then the person e-mails back and has hurt feelings and then I e-mail back and say, "Don't take it personal" and then they e-mail back and say, "Okay" or whatever. Sure I can just hit delete but I still have to open e-mails and it takes up time that I could spend on you, me, my daughter or my grandson or writing on the NEW! mega-mondo project. PLEASE DO NOT ADD ME TO YOUR FORWARD LIST. A lot of these e-mails are not very well researched and they are either flat out false or urban legends. Before you send a forward to someone, please just look it up on www.snopes.com

Just a tiny head's up -- I woke up this morning with a clear DLG (Download from God) to start archiving the Spiritual Progression Path. So there is a NEW! button in the left 'navy blue column' that says, "Spiritual Progression Path". These SPP's (Spiritual Progression Paths) will be archived from here on out just like the Daily Messages. Hey, I just do as I'm directed without going through the motions of doubt. When I hear it, I do it. You can also find a link in the paragraph below. By the way, I do write these prayers myself with the exception of maybe just a couple that you may read on these SPP pages.

New radio broadcasts will be added to www.drstandleylive.com by the end of the week. Also, the NEW! mega-mondo surprise project I told you about is coming along quite nicely and prayerfully will be ready to rumble and be launched next week (I'm looking at Monday right now).

The TYS "Home" Study e-Course has been reorganized and the price for the entire workbook is now ONLY $39.95 for 134 pages instead $69.95. Once things get easier on this end, then that is how I can lower the price of it. If you ordered a session of this program at $14.95 and now you want the entire program, then just e-mail me and I will e-mail you a special invoice for $25.00 for the rest of the workbook. Each session is still available for $14.95 per session if purchased individually. Also, I will no longer be offering personal consults with each individual session of the TYS Program as this 134 page workbook should be more than sufficient. And certainly you can call me anytime you need assistance. If you want further in-depth personal guidance, then I would suggest we set up a reading.

I have also received a lot of e-mails about the jewelry that I'm wearing in the above picture. The two beaded necklaces my mom made. I have an absolute ton of these necklaces in various colors that I will be putting in The Holistic Shop. I don't know when I'll be doing that because it involves taking the pictures, etc., but I will be doing it. The earrings I'm wearing are actually hand-painted bone to look like an ear of corn. Cool huh? They were made by a woman in Cherokee, NC were my family lives (for those of you who don't know.) The other necklace is not necessarily a Crucifix because there is no Cross, it is only The Body. A lot of people just wear the Cross with no Body, my mom and I wear The Body and no Cross. It's solid gold and we never take it off. Yes my little chickadees, it is mostly definitely a bold statement and that's just me . . and my mom too! A close-up of the necklace is below.

WOW! (wide-open-wonderment) I just have to watch this debate tonight between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. I can assure you that watching this debate tonight will have nothing to do with my presidential preferance and I will ONLY be watching it for astrologic pattern obsessed purposes.

If you want to see some Scorpio energy, just watch this show tonight because it ought to be a doozie! For starters, the Moon is in Scorpio. Hillary Clinton is a Scorpio and Barack Obama is a Leo with a Rising Sign of Scorpio. I don't know Hillary's Rising Sign because her birth time is not known. Scorpio and Leo are natural squaring (challenging signs) so it's tough for them to get along anyway. It's a power struggle folks. That's exactly what it is! Then we throw into the mix Barack Obama's Rising Sign of Scorpio with Hillary Clinton's Sun Sign in Scorpio and we might just be saying, "Oh hey, them's fightin' words!" before the night is over. oooh - this is fiesty and fighting Scorpio energy so be prepared for those Scorpion pinchers to open up wide and those tails to curl and sting someone tonight. OUCHY! MOM!

I for one happen to Love Scorpio's and Leo's because I just understand how they tick. Well, that might be all signs for that matter but I have to admit I am very partial to Leo's and Scorpio's. Well okay, Gemini's and Virgo's too. Oh wait . . John McCain is a Virgo. Well look at that! Actually I can appreciate and Love all signs, even my own South Node Pisces. Believe me, that took time and a lot of energy. (winky wink)

If you are wondering about Bill Clinton being a Leo and Hillary Clinton being a Scorpio, let's not forget their share of challenges. At the same time, let's note that Bill and Hillary BOTH enjoy power. He has 4 planets in Leo (Sun, Mercury, Pluto and Saturn) and his Scorpio energy is in his 2nd house of self-worth. A Libra Rising with five planets in Libra is what mesmerized his crowd. (I wasn't one of them.) So his ego coupled with his nasty little habits were a given. YUCK! Let's not forget that Hillary wanted to be first lady. Power with this couple 'is what it is'. Some of you may not want to hear it but that's just the way it is. As my astrologer would always say, "The chart never lies, only the mouth lies."

If you watch the debate tonight then here is the low down on signs.

Hillary Clinton has 5 planets in Scorpio. Yeah, no kidding! That would be the Sun, Chiron, Venus, Mercury and the South Node. Now we've seen within just the last few days how the media is on to her temperament, which I think will actually cost her. She needs to manage this because her Mars in Leo, Pluto in Leo and Saturn in Leo are all getting ego bruised. You back a Scorpio into a corner and they will STING the heck out of you. Defensiveness reigns supreme when you challenge a Scorpio. Her Moon in Pisces of Miss Sensitivity or should I say Miss Over-Sensitivity and of course DRAMA can work for her but I don't think she has it under control. She needs to manage her emotions. Remember, Pisces is THE MOST dramatic and theatrical sign of the zodiac (and guess who is in second place on drama . . LEO!) This Scorpio Moon today may just kick her own Pisces Moon butt and take her down. She better get a handle on herself. And with all those planets in Scorpio, we have to remember that Scorpio is the negative thinker, Debbie-Downer and worrier of the zodiac. We hear her talk like this ALL THE TIME. She even uses the word "worry" when she addresses a crowd by saying, "Who do you want worrying about . . . ?" Oh believe me, she'll definitely 'worry'. Personally I'd rather see confidence than worry. Interestingly enough, all five of Hillary's planets in Scorpio square (challenge) all three of her planets in Leo (the ego and power). We may be watching some self-undoing tonight unless she can manage herself better. We'll see . . .

Barack Obama has 5 planets in Leo. Yeah, no kidding! That would be the Sun, Mercury, Lilith, Uranus and the North Node. And guess what? Each of one of Barack and Hillary's planets make perfect squares to each other. It's really quite amazing how challenged they are by each other. His five planets in Leo perfectly squaring her five planets in Scorpio. Basically folks, these two cannot stand each other. I mean they CAN'T STAND EACH OTHER! Further, 3 of Barack's planets including his Midheaven (10th house cusp of public image and career) square his Rising Sign (Scorpio). OUCHY! This guy might need to get out of his own way (his big ol' ego). Oh yeah folks, it's definitely there. And the zingers that will probably be thrown down tonight with this Scorpio Moon could make for some incredible ratings on TV. Barack's motto is about change . . well of course it is because he has Uranus in Leo in his 10th house of career. Uranus is not only change . . but it means 'sudden' and 'unexpected' changes. Change can certainly be Good but keep in mind that Uranus is upheaval change which oftens times does not feel Good at all. It also means 'sudden windfall'. Barack's Moon is in Gemini (media and communication) so of course the media just Loves him. Oh but wait, Hillary has the Part of Fortune (meaning lucky) in Gemini and the media just Loves her too.

As I have told you before, politics make for wonderful astrologic study and to witness patterns. I hope my astrologer Thomas (a Leo) is watching this from above (may God rest his soul) because he really enjoyed watching these patterns play themselves out. If you are working on understanding astrology better then watch this ego-centered (Leo) fight that will have all the aspects of Scorpio thrown in. And let's not forget, Scorpio either Loves you or hates you. There is no in between. With Hillary's Sun sign in Scorpio and Barack's Rising Sign in Scorpio, this is definitely a competition that will go down to the wire and there will be blood. Scorpio energy is moving in for the kill and it's coming from both of them.

I want to update you on that HUGE project that I had been ram-jamming on before I plunked down sick for an entire week. Well I am officially all caught up on e-mails and phone calls. If I missed your e-mail or phone call, just call back or e-mail again. Also, the Moon moves into Scorpio this afternoon. Since I am Cancer Rising (water sign), have 3 Grand Trines in the water signs and have a Water Strong Natal Chart, this Scorpio Moon abundantly feeds my intuition, so I will be ram-jammin' on that HUGE project that I told you about several weeks ago. Better yet, I will be doing this while my intuition is at its highest (during the Scorpio, Pisces or Cancer Moon). Not to mention the Scorpio Moon this afternoon moves into Gemini's 6th house of work ethic, which puts me into maniacal and full blown crazy work-mode. Prayerfully I can have this mega-mondo project fully complete by next Monday. I also have Pluto in Virgo in my 3rd house of communication which basically says, "Teach and feed the masses." Just find a way to do it Loretta. Waaahh - hooooooo!

Here is a hint . . . this NEW! mega-mondo project requires my intuitive attention rather than just cranking out brain logged information like lab values, breaking down Signs and Systems, answering health questions and figuring out what's going on with a particular Body System. I do Love putting those types of puzzles together but I enjoy a spiritual puzzle even more. Believe me, repairing the physical and chemical body is a lot easier than repairing the emotional, mental and spiritual body. My spirit can float into the ethers just watching a twig fall out of a tree into my path, so creating something NEW for you is necessary for my spirit's existence. I have to create this because IT IS part of my purpose and mission. ooooh - I can feel that Scorpio Moon heading my way. My Crown Chakra aka 7th Chakra is wide-open. By the way, if the tippy top of your head (Crown Chakra) is tender, then you know that this Chakra is closed and it needs to be opened. Rubbing this area (a scalp massage) until it is no longer tender will certainly help. If your (Crown Chakra) is closed you may have some issues associated with it.

I'm so excited about this mega-mondo project because it is just another a tool created just for you to investigate your 'self' before you start investigating what's going on with someone else, which we so often do. (winky wink) I want you to be obsessed with your 'self' rather than another person. My desire is to create this project in such a way that it is so personal to you that whenever you find yourself in a certain situation that it just automatically makes sense to you. And when I feed you . . I want to fill you UP so much that you have to be silent and think about what all it all means. I want you bursting with information and enlightenment until you just tip over from WOW (wide-open-wonderment) and lay there thinking about you with a huge smile on your face. Until then . . .

This is day three of the health conscious Virgo Moon. I just want you to know that after this Virgo Moon passes at 2:44 AM EST tomorrow morning, which was in a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on Wednesday night, this does not mean that you no longer have to consider your health. Many people are getting back into shape or getting into shape for the first time in their Life due to strict, restrictive and limiting Saturn moving through Virgo until October 2009. At the same time, if this energy (Saturn in Virgo) is ignored along with this Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo that took place a couple of days ago, it can land you in some hot water healthwise. This is the point at which you either change for the better or you will cross over into the next size of clothing or many people will be handed a health diagnosis that has been brewing for a long time.

Health club memberships are bound to go up and even shows like "The Biggest Loser" will become more popular. If you have a health club membership, then USE IT! Virgo also rules food, so it's a perfect time to start cooking again and preparing meals that are healthy. Did you know that Weight Watchers has a very simple online program that you can use to keep track of your food? It will cost you a few dollars each month and that's it. It's just too dang easy and surely you blow $16.95 on something every month. There are a ton of online programs to help you take back control of your health. Folks, there are so many things to get you back into the swing of things that you really do not have an excuse . . except a lame one.

Over the next several months I will be reminding you of this energy and influence you are under, but when it comes down to it, no one can do it for you. And why should they if you won't? Either take control of your health once and for all or someone will be in control of it for you. And that my little chickadees would be the negative influence of Saturn's strictness, limitation and restrictive ways. Why not use strictness, limitation and restriction as a self-imposed positive influence for you to take control of your health including your physical, mental, emotional, chemical and spiritual health?

By the way, I have a new "Me and My Friends" page. Just click the link or you can find the "Me and My Friends" page in the left blue column under "About Dr. Standley."

Wow! Today was my first day with Ashley (my new personal trainer) and she completely "kicked my trash" this morning. I thought I was in somewhat reasonable shape but all I can say is, "OUCH, my butt! And my arms! OUCH!" We changed my training with her to Tuesday and Thursday mornings and I'm so excited about it that I asked for a Saturday workout too. Ah....you betcha I'm using that Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in health conscious Virgo to my advantage. On the off days I'll workout on my Gazelle and do my yoga like I usually do. I'm so excited!

Below is basically the Daily Food List that I go by in my head. There are just some things that I refuse to put into my body, which you will see below. I have an appetite bigger than most men (no kidding, I've always been that way) so I have to be a conscious eater. It's probably because I have a lot of energy that I burn daily. I also probably spend more money on groceries than I do anything else. If it's going into my body then I won't be eating cheap. I would give up something else before I ate cheap. I would rather go into a nice restaurant to sit down and eat rather than hit the drive-thru for a quickie. I'm the type of gal who will order the most expensive thing on the menu and not think a thing about it. Not because it's the most expensive but because I am attracted to the Good stuff . . and I'll do it on a date too without batting an eye. (winky wink) Don't ask me out and then expect me to order cheap! Yep! That's me!

By the way, I have a new "Me and My Friends" page. Just click the link or you can find the "Me and My Friends" page in the left blue column under "About Dr. Standley."

Make certain that you read the weekly horoscope because there is information on the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in 'Virgo' for tonight. I cannot stress how important it is for you to go into this Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in 'Virgo' with a new and improved attitude on health, fitness and hygiene. This Virgo Moon rules "mind over matter" so think about what this means. Your mind really can over-take matter. This makes it a doubly Good time to recite affirmations too. Some people are fearful of eclipses and it does not have to be that way IF you use the energy to your advantage. Since Virgo rules health, then it is time to 'get healthy'. If you ignore this energy, then you just may have challenges in this area of your Life for the next five months. It's time to think and be healthy again.

Virgo also represents daily routine and organization so I challenge each and every one of you to write down your Daily Health Regimen. This list gives me a sense of accomplishment and keeps me on track. As I do each thing on my list, then I check it off. So what I have done is printed my list 2 times on a piece of paper in a landscape page view set-up. Then I cut the paper and staple a stack of my daily list for an entire week. Each day I write the day of the week at the top of my list. As I do each thing on the list I check it off my list. If I am required to do something twice, then I check it off my list twice. Below is my list to give you an idea. I have a Daily Food List but that is in my head that I don't write it down. I'll write about the food list tomorrow. Make your list folks! It doesn't matter what time you begin this today (or tonight), as long as you begin and move through the next five months paying closer attention to your health, fitness, hygiene, daily regimen and organization.

People often ask about my skin. No, I do not wear a liquid or a pancake type of make-up all over my face. Personally I think it's Cherokee skin because the Cherokee are known for having naturally smooth and healthy skin. My skin is softer than a babies butt. (winky wink) At the same time I believe that the Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), the Natural Progesterone Cream and Black Cohosh Tea are contributing factors. I started doing these when I turned 40 years old. That was nearly 7 years ago. Dang! Time really flies! Some people might choose to drink Flaxseed Oil or use crushed/ground Flaxseed on their food. I prefer the EVOO. I'm crazy about EVOO, so much that I drink it (2 Tbsp/day), use it when I cook, put it on my feet daily and use it in my baths. I'll even put a little on my fingertips and rub it into my hair. My hair grows like weeds and is really shiney! Again, I bet it's the EVOO. I don't add EVOO to my Tsalagi Bath Salts recipes because it would influence the color of the salts profoundly. So I just add a tablespoon to my bath water.

Remember the personal trainer I met? Well I have hired her and we begin tomorrow (Thursday morning). I wanted to wait until after Mercury went direct and under the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo to begin. Now imagine if you gave up coffee how much money you would have in one week. Personal trainers are affordable especially if you are spending more than it costs to hire them on coffee and other unnecessary beverages in a week. It all depends on your priorities and where you choose to spend your money.

Workout with Ashley 2x/week
Monday and Thursday

Minimum 30 minute exercise each day (walking, using my gazelle, riding my bicycle)
Sun Salutes (Yoga) in the morning

I make the time to take long baths at least 3x/week minimum with my Tsalagi Bath Salts. Since I am a Triple Grand Trine in the water signs, my rising sign is Cancer (water) and my Mercury (communication) is in Cancer (water again) and several other water placements in my Natal Chart which creates my sooper-dooper water strong chart and stimulates high intuition . . I take lots of baths to feed my intuition. I have to because it's like feeding my soul.

Tomorrow morning I'll write out the food list. It'll be much shorter than this Daily Message. In the meantime, get yourself in a healthier mindset and write down your list and carry it with you at all times. In the meantime, there is a button in the left navy blue column called, Dieting and Diet Tips with all kinds of wonderful links under that button to help get you started on eating healthier. Until tomorrow . . enjoy the reading.

By the way, I have a new "Me and My Friends" page. Just click the link or you can find the "Me and My Friends" page in the left blue column under "About Dr. Standley."

If you haven't gotten off your 'Rumpelstiltskin' and listened to my online radio show what the heck are you waiting for? Click and listen. Read the last daily message titled, And I Gotta Do Something. Don't forget to read your daily Spiritual Progression Path.

Every so often there is a little percussion in the background but it's mainly her strumming this lonely guitar and singing an extremely sad song where she is basically obsessing over a former Love. Keep in mind I heard no other lyrics except the words, "And I gotta do somethin'."

In this particular song since she had to do somethin', sh
