In this world of opportunity You have or you have not Or you’re hanging in the middle Holding on to what you’ve got Paying taxes, wearing glasses Trying to read the fine print Buying crap at Walmart Eating frozen shit I don’t want it, don’t need it, Don’t have to have it, just to feel good (2x) I don’t want it, don’t need it, Don’t have to have it, just to feel good about me There’s a Bluetooth and an iPod and a theater TV An xbox and a smartphone and a PAD Get a tennis bracelet, contour bra, designer SUV A four-slice toaster and an ATV CHORUS BRIDGE: All your dreams fulfilled (3x) Join a dating service you can meet all the chicks Be a paid egg donor, adopt a few kids Get a fixed rate mortgage with no money down Be the king of your own castle with a solid gold crown CHORUS There’s a world of opportunity for you and me In six months time you can have your degree Be a paralegal, CNA, medical assistant Drive the big rigs, be an electrician CHORUS BRIDGE: with spoken poem

Devil Music 02:49
Devil’s got his own kind of music Devil’s got his own kind of sound Kind of thing make you jump and shout Throw your hat on the floor, pull your shirttail out Devil’s got his own kind of music Satan’s got his own kind of music Satan got his own kind of sound Kind of stuff make a young girl dare Fall on her back with her feet in the air Devil’s got his own kind of music Beelzebub is on the prowl tonight Ol’ Beelzebub is on the prowl tonight Ain’t no use cryin’ and prayin’ Just hop aboard the hellbound train Beelzebub is on the prowl tonight INST Going through the gates of Hell tonight Yeah we’re going through the gates of Hell tonight Satan put out the welcome mat Old Lucifer’s one rockin’ cat Going through the gates of Hell tonight Devil’s got his own kind of music Devil’s got his own kind of sound Kind of thing make you jump and shout Devil music what it’s all about Devil’s got his own kind of music (3x) Yeah, the Devil's got his own kind of sound.

A leaking faucet My boyfriend would have stopped it A broken door He’d make it swing An aching heart He’d fix that, too But I can’t depend on anybody else And so I’ve got to learn to do these things for myself Or not My girlfriend’s gone And I miss her so Had a little job uptown Thought she’d never know She packed her bags I guess she had to go I’ll get along As best I can But I’m starting to miss My handyman He’s a real hard worker He’s in high demand Now some guys work In a corner office Making decisions Doing lunch with the bosses But I’m the kind of man Works with his hands You worked for Sally and Amy And Betty McBride Lola said she was never So satisfied You take pride in your work Always get your price But I can’t depend on my handy boy Some things I’ve got to learn to avoid— Or not

Love has set me wandering Love has brought me home Love has turned my blood to ice Love has kept me warm Love has made me crazy Love has kept me sane Love has made me reckless And shown me restraint Love has been a little lamb Love has been a beast Love has fed me bread and water Love has been a feast Love has dropped me on my head Love has tied me to a bed Love has filled me full of lead Love has healed and love has bled And love has whispered in my ear Called me honey, called me dear Love told me, get outta here Love has made me disappear Love has been a mystery Love has been my enemy Love has taught me empathy Love brought out the best in me And love has told the boldest lies Love has made me roll my eyes But love will never be denied Writes its name across the sky Love will haunt me ‘til the end Love will be my only friend Love will show me where I’ve been Love will be a whirlwind And love will lie and love will cheat Love will sweep me off my feet Leave me begging on the street But, really now, isn’t love sweet Isn’t love sweet, isn’t love sweet, isn’t love sweet.

There’s a man with a gun, standing on a ledge He’ll either shoot himself or jump, it’s all the same in the end Fifteen hundred channels on my two-way wrist TV I can see that anytime, it’s nothing to me Mocha frappe chino at a table on the street Paris in the springtime, the world at my feet Nothing wrong, my signal strong, the whole world on parade Don’t stare at my laptop, I’m not that kind of babe You’ve got a problem, don’t try to solve it with me (2x) Unsurpassed my car is fast, I drive it like the wind I know it’s not the autobahn, but that’s the mood I’m in City streets so crowded, I need a little space S'est levé, look at me, nothing out of place. Ankles crossed, my lips are glossed, I show a little skin Funny boy in corduroy, a hipster wanders in Wants to buy me something, gestures with a tray Coq au vin, escargot, please just go away. You’ve got a problem, don’t try to solve it with me (3x) Every night I’m dancing at the disco drinking gin Well, dance yourself away from me, or take it on the chin You don’t like my corduroy, you won’t sit with me Oh, I like you very much, I’d like it if you’d leave. Battle of the sexes? This is getting trite But you’re the one who’s fighting, now please just say goodnight You don’t recognize me? I was a pop star once Well color me impressed, now run you’ll miss your bus. I’ve enjoyed our conversation, thank you for your time Honestly, don’t mention it, the pleasure was all mine Do I detect sincerity, or is it just a ploy? I’m beginning to appreciate you, you’re a clever boy. Love ya, babe Je t'aime

about

These are preliminary mixes and working demos for an stalled-out album of duets with lady singers. Because I like duets. And ladies. And albums. I'll get back to it someday.
