	It's a song about looking out the window and seeing nothing but porchlights but knowing that somewhere in the world, something is happening. It's a song about waiting for something to happen.
	Credits: Written and Performed by James Michael Shaw. Recorded at The Disc, Ltd., Detroit, MI.
	Story Behind the Song I wrote this song in August, 1999. I was working two jobs and had little freetime. When you're doing that, you find that your friends never see you anymore, so they don't exist. You find that the people you work with aren't really your friends, either. You find yourself at home looking out the window and wondering when something is going to happen. You wonder if, next month, things wil be different. That's what I was thinking when I wrote it. Of course, "September Morning" means something different now, (Signed affadavits are available from people who heard me play this song at concerts long before 9/11/01 in case anyone doubts my sincerity.) but I don't mind if the song means something different to you than it does to me...as long as it means something. Lyrics Another year Another Kennedy Another rainy August Michigan night Everybody's talking about this brand new century And I'm here waiting for something to happen But would you take me way out by the duck pond, Little girl? And we can poison all the ducks And listen to them die Maybe then we'd feel like the world is somehow different Because you and I are here Instead of waiting for something to happen Another beer A little cocaine And soon all my troubles just melt away Maybe me and Marvin will go fishing tomorrow night Maybe Jesus will come back today September morining, when will you come and take all the leaves off the trees so I can waste away?
