| Simple but true song about the frustrations we experience when others try to tell us how to live our lives. In the most simplest of ways, "Why Don't You Tell Me," turns the tables on the questioners so that they become the questionees. Comprised of only questions, the songs essentially asks them, "what's it like" to be them, and in the spirit of sarcasm, requests that they stop telling us how to live our lives. |

| Essentially a love song influenced by the great jazz standards of yesteryear. It tells the story of someone who, at the hand of her lover, has been made to feel foolish in the wake of his hurtful behavior. Despite her pain, she continued to go back to him, only until enough became enough. She reclaims her power at the end by leaving him. |

| In this typical "he done me wrong, but I'm gettin' on" song, Beth tells the story of the time that she met up with a man she invited to fundraising gala. Happy to accept her invitation, he joined her at the gala and was completely enamored with her the entire evening. However, during the course of the night, as he got increasingly bored, he also got incredibly smashed, and at the end of the evening, without saying much of anything, he snuck out the front door. However, right before he left, half-in-the-bag, he did tell Beth, "Don't move. I'll be right back." But he never came back and never returned her calls or emails.
Writing this song from her perspective on the evening, Beth essentially recalls his drunken, foolish behavior, saying in the end, "if you would've stuck around, we'd be going all the way right now." And funny enough, though she never heard from him again, she sent him a copy of the song in the mail, just to have the last word.
The moral of the story: don't judge a book by its cover . . . don't count your chickens before they're hatched . . . and definitely do not screw with a songwriter. |
