So Glad...

Perhaps a touch of Tracy Chapman meets Dave Matthews
My staging ground for ideas I'm working on... Likely to be lots of stuff in various stages of completion. It will run the gamut, too - from experimental/abstract electronica to straight-ahed pop, proggish-rock to spoken word.

Story behind the song
A friend pissed me off by attempting to club me to death with advice I already know and that he would be so haughty about it when he's not in any better of a position in life...
Lyrics
I'm glad that god gave you things that I will never have Like questions to the answers and the answers to the questions that I would never ask I'm glad that you can learn from all of your mistakes And maybe in the future with a gin-and-tonic tutor even I can be so sage I'm so glad... I'm glad that you can be so free with your advice 'cuz if you had to make us pay for things that we know anyways then god you'd be living nice I'm glad that you're someone who doesn't miss his clues Well maybe as we sit here talking bullshit over dinner you can show me how to lose I'm so glad... CHORUS: I'm so glad that we could have this chat I'm so glad that you know where I'm at I'm so glad that we see eye to eye I'm so glad that you could be my friend tonight so glad... I'm glad that your reflection doesn't bring you shame Cuz as you spit your wisdom am I really the intended victim or is more at play? I'm glad that you can sleep content that you are right I'm sure that insecurity does not bring many pleasant dreams but god it holds you tight... [ repeat chorus ] [ solo ] I'm glad that I could write this little song for you and maybe if I write it well your story will begin to sell and we can buy some food but we both had our fantasies and placed our lives in jeopardy and now we're counting change and if I had an extra dime I'd feed your ego anytime but right now there's just no way I'm so glad... [ chorus and out... ]
