Total Fiction. You are not in this song. No matter what you may think you hear.

Writing songs for my new cd...I play all my own instruments, do my own vocals, produce and engineer.
I am just a hobbyist, creating music in a vacuum as an answer to the ultimate zen riddle. I play all my own instruments, do all my own vocals, write all music and lyrics, and arrange, engineer and produce my own tracks in my home studio.

Story behind the song
It's about every little gossipy town you've even been in.
Lyrics
Our Little Town C G F They say you can't go home again That isn't really true my friend I make the trip most every year I see a girl I used to date She's gained a little baby weight We share a laugh and maybe a beer Her husband has run off again With her old best high school friend And left her with a bottle of pills She's taking him to family court To make him pay his child support And half the children's medical bills Prechorus: Am C F Dm Our little town goes round and round With the sound of the words Repeating gossip like it's news CHORUS: G Am F (X3) C We keep our dirty laundry On the line to discuss with coffee Our little town gets smaller You can still get the news for a dollar Our little town never shuts down Our little town never shuts up I got another friend of mine Who doesn't even have a spine His first wife took it in the divorce Works extra hours, so he can Hire illegal aliens To make his lawn look like a golf course He gets his children twice a year But he makes it pretty clear He doesn't love their mom anymore He doesn't see them growing up And wonders why they're all scewed up With scars from his emotional war Prechorus: Am C F Dm Our little town goes round and round With the sound of the words Repeating gossip like it's news CHORUS: G Am F (X3) We keep our dirty laundry On the line to discuss with coffee Our little town gets smaller YOu can still get the news for a dollar Our little town never shuts down Our little town never shuts up A lady down the street from me Doesn't seem to wanna see Her son is not like most little boys He's hanging out with all the girls And dresses up in heels and pearls And doesn't even play with his toys But we think that it's okay If it turns out that he's gay It doesn't mean his life will be wrong She's lying to herself again But that way it's always been And why it ended up in this song Prechorus: Am C F Dm Our little town goes round and round Repeating gossip like it's news CHORUS: G Am F (X3) We keep our dirty laundry On the line to discuss with coffee Our little town gets smaller We can still get the news for a dollar Our little town never shuts down Our little town never shuts up
