I put on my guitar and play that tune that I wrote
I Put my soul in every note to get that old feeling
And what’ve I got?
You got those DJ’s in your earphones
so you can’t hear me.
Tonight I’ll cook that dish I’ve learned
Specially for you
Buy the best and take my time
Got to be charming
And what’ve I got?
You put all the bottle of hot sauce on
Before trying
Maybe it’s that I sing too soft
Maybe I should add more spices
But how can you know if you don’t give me a chance?
You could say I expect too much
And I don’t wanna get too tragic
But I was trying to connect
Let’s start all over again
I put some fuzz on my guitar
And tried singing rough
Tried that psychedelic stuff
Sounded like blasting
I don’t know
You could be right when you were saying
That I need some dusting
