My feeble attempt at writing a jazz song. Don't judge the recording. It's just a quick demo, recorded on my lunch hour (literally). I recorded, mixed, and burned this to cd in less than an hour. Drove home at 11:25, turned on the gear, made tomat

Story behind the song
I had the idea of writing a song about a guy who revels in his laziness. This is what came out.
Lyrics
ANOTHER BORING DAY I've been accussed of being a bore As a child, Mama said I could sleep through a war There's not much to me, but less is more or so they say I just like to lie around I'm uninspired and I'm unwound I'm so laid back I'm lying down To coin a cliche I'd write a letter to a friend If I felt like picking up a pen But why do now what I can put off 'til then? Adrift in my decay It's just another boring day I had a lover once upon a time She was sophistocated and so refined But she got tired of lying around all the time And wasting away So she ran down to Cabo with some other dude Sent me a picture postcard of her in the nude And wrote, "Life's been good. But how's it treating you?" I just didn't have the nerve to say, That my phone hasn't rung in 19 days I've molded Devil's Tower out of mayonaise But there's no aliens touching down on earth to share my space No, like everybody else they all stay away No hurry ups, just hesitates There's no pretty playmates feeding me grapes Just another rerun of Planet of the Apes It's late... And so it's true that I'm a bore But it's nothing you haven't heard before So just hit the light and close the door Before walking away Here I am, so here I'll stay And by the way... It's just another boring day
