    Story Behind the Song
    Follow the story as I go through high school ot the present, and how music gets me through the tough times.

    Lyrics
    Available at www.jammindave.com/recess

    I was the kid that always talked to strangers
    I had to sip the sin, I had to taste the danger.
    I didn't get along with the kids at school.
    They said my hair was too long, said I looked like a fool.
    Well they overlooked me. They left me ignored.
    They sat me in the owner all alone and bored.
    But their approval I wasn't lookin' for,
    Cause I was tuned in*
    *To My Power chord
    Give me my power chord

    Now the day had come, and I began to play
    I got strung out on string, you know I HAD to play
    I had to bang my head, I had to wake the dead.
    Yeah, I could'a been a jock, but I rocked instead.
    Then the day came, and I got to play
    It was my turn to laugh and I blew them all away.
    I showed them something they'd never seen before.
    And I owe it all*

    And now I'm older. I find life's a mother….
    Every bill I pay gets replaced by another.
    The checks I write bounce like a ball.
    When I think I'm gonna lose it, I hear the call.
    I start to sweat. I need to feel.
    My fingers pressing tight on strings of steel.
    It's pure anesthesia just like before.
    I'll never outgrow the sound
    Of a powerchord.
