    Obligatory Gen-X angsty stuff. But upbeat, more or less.

    Story Behind the Song
    One of those classic moments of slacker artistry - the first few lines came unbidden to me while I was watching Saturday morning cartoons. I'm not sure myself what it's all about, but if you can get a bead on it, let me know.

    Lyrics
    Next Head on the Block

    Space I'm taking up
    I'm afraid it's not enough
    I thought I'd make you proud of me but I fouled up
    Break me on your love
    Don't wait to wake me up
    I long to test my faith and maybe press my luck

    Thought I was a rock but I was wrong
    And now it shouldn't be too long
    Till I'm the next head on the block

    In sickness and in health
    Please keep me on your shelf
    And if you're sweet to me I'll keep it to myself
    Deep as you may delve
    You won't get through my shell
    I need to hoard the secrets that are all my wealth

    You see me at my best
    In all my shallowness
    But I promise I'll be honest with you more or less
    Forgive me and my flesh
    For the weakness I confess
    And pay no mind to anything I say in jest

    (c)1998 dan layman-kennedy
