Story Behind the Song
This was my first experiment in home recording. It took me 3 days cause of all the mistakes I made as I was learning how to use the Yamaha Minidisc-8 that I borrowed from a friend. The time was worth it- this is like nothing I've produced before. I played both guitars, both keyboards, the djembe, both vocals, and a percussion effect: my breath patched through my guitar pedal. This song is part of the story of Peter, Jacob, and Mary, speaking of the time of their lives when things begin to catch up with them. This was a fun song to record.
Lyrics
Chalk up another
one for the team of three
Me, myself, and
I've got a problem
Just another chink in the armor of life
Pack my bags up
My sorrow's so thick
The hate here on every face
is making me sick
It's time to hit the road
It's time to grab a hold
I'm telling you
I think we've a problem
If you think we don't
just let me continue
You think you're above it all
Impervious to a fall
So tell me a lie
Cause It's only a crime
If you're caught
When I wake up I'll be younger now
Does that make sence?
I don't think so
But that's ok,
cause I've stopped trying
to impress you anyway
When midnight rolls around
You always seem to
Change your tone
To fit those feelings
That always seem to change
I'm telling you
I think we've a problem
If you think we don't
Just let me continue
The glitter on your face
only covers the truth
And finally you've embraced
an opposing view
You think you're above it all
Impervious to a fall
So tell me a lie
Cause it's only a crime
If you're caught
I'm hating theses actors and actresses
I'm hitting the road
I'm hitting the mattresses
It's time to dress for war
