about

Last summer while finishing "Songs About Girls" that illustrious little producer/engineer Shawn Anfinson and me were sitting having a beer at the Boro. I mentioned an album title, the one you see here. He remarked that he had never seen a title as a sentence, replete with punctuation and all. When I thought about it, neither had I, especially given that its meaning is so fitting for my life. For instance, I wanted all my musician friends to record it with me. Almost every one of them could not, would not, or did not. So there's that. My best bud and a fine drumma drumma, Tim Frisby, however, did. So there's that, which is nice. I heard keyboard parts all over this album. The crazy talented Clara Oman agreed to do just that, but was unable to live up to her end of the bargain. So there's that. She did, however, manage to sweeten up the track "Inside and Out." So there's that, which is nice. I heard an all-black Baptist choir singing background vocals, but a choir can't fit in Shawn's garage. So there's that. I did, however, manage to get my brother Michael, my bestie Jeff Ruby, and the sweet, sexy and super-talented Joelene Franco, along with Shawnicus himself, to lay down some great bv's. So there's that, which is nice. I have accepted that I will never be a world wide superstar, despite my charm, charisma and lion's heart. So there's that. However, I am incredibly fortunate and lucky to still be doing what I love all these years, with no signs of stopping. So there's that, which is nice.

Track Name: This Town
THIS TOWN

This town really sucks
I’m down to my last couple of bucks
I’m no star the chicks won't fuck
Got no car and I’m stuck in

This town

This town really blows
It’s lowdown goodness knows
I got no clout I got no dough
I better get out of

This town
Brings me down

This town ain’t worth a damn
Slow down here come another traffic jam
Hey now I done all I can
Just to get out of

This town it ain't for you
This town it ain't for me
This town is for this town
And it will always be

Track Name: Follow You Anywhere
FOLLOW YOU ANYWHERE

This is a city of conversation
Sad girl in the window lookin’ out
How can lonely be so common
With ten million people around

I’d follow you anywhere
Follow you anywhere
All the way to New York City
Follow you anywhere

Lost only knowing where we’re going
Brave
Enough to fall
I dream
I dream of love
Hey don’t we all

I’d follow you anywhere
Follow you anywhere
All the way down to Tennessee
Follow you anywhere

Talk about tenacity
A real sense of possibility
When you cry tears from the future
They go all the way back to the past

I’d follow you anywhere
Follow you anywhere
All the way to Istanbul
Follow you anywhere

I’d follow you anywhere
Follow you anywhere
All the way to Detroit City
Follow you anywhere

I’d follow you anywhere
Follow you anywhere
All the way to the salty sea
Follow you anywhere

Track Name: Inside and Out
INSIDE AND OUT

You’re so easy to talk to
So nice just to be around
Don’t even get me started
On what you know how

I wanna know you
Inside and out
I wanna show you
Inside and out
You are so beautiful
Inside and out
I wanna love you
Inside and out

I get so bored and lonely
Not having you around
I think I’ll probably just curl up with a bottle
And drown

Ooh, ahh

Life is funny babe
But you make everything alright
Listen honey
Believe me when I say

I wanna love you
Let me love you
Let me love you
You are so beautiful

Inside and out

Track Name: Together Girl
TOGETHER GIRL

You got it all sewn up like a
Together girl
But your reckless heart
Keeps you falling apart

Yeah you’re a real firecracker like a
Together girl
You light up the room
Listen to my heart go boom
Boom boom

You got a whole milk booty like a
Together girl
But you got to get yourself
Together girl

Together girl you know that I love you don’t you
Together girl you know I’ve done all I can for you
For you

Together girl you know that I love you don’t you
Together girl you know I’ve done all I can for you
Together girl you know that I just can’t save you
Save you save you

I wax nostalgic for ya
Together girl
There was a time when we were really in love

You suffer me quick like a
Together girl
But you got to get your shit
Together girl

Track Name: I Miss You
I MISS YOU

I miss you
And your silly little ways
Talkin’ all the time
Cleanin’ ‘round the house on Sundays

I miss you
A little more every day
And if I kissed you
You’d be coming back home to stay

I miss you
And I swear I’ll change my ways
You won’t have to tell me to shut my mouth
Or watch the stupid things that I say

Two hearts broken
The pieces suspended in time
I miss you
I miss you sometime

Two hearts lonely
Remember when you were mine
I’m sorry babe
I just miss you sometime

Two hearts cold
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
I just miss you
I just miss you sometime

I miss you
And that’s all I have to say
‘Cause you know I love you
Don’t you babe
