Liner Notes

@cindyrella suggested I give this lyric a go and when I read the lyric it reminded me of a guitarist I used to play with who always had 2-3 woman on the go. We played a gig one night where all three women he had going showed up. I got my popcorn out ready for some fireworks but he managed to keep them all happy and my metaphorical popcorn was wasted. Anyways, I digress... This was a fun song to put down :)

Lyrics

Bit Off More Than I Could Chew
© 2024 Cindy Prince

I was warned
I couldn't pull it off
I was told
But all I did was scoff
I knew better
Or so I thought
Seems you were right
I got caught

Playing two women
One on each hand
I had the time
And I had a plan
I did it for a while
Thought success was mine
But they both found out
I went over the line

Chorus
I bit off more than I could chew
I thought I was suave and I thought I knew
How to make them both happy
But man I'm telling you
I bit off more than I could chew...can chew

Bridge
I have a confession
I've learned my lesson

From now on it's only one
I'll focus on her
I'll stop looking for more
She'll be my cure
Don't want more games
Didn't like that last mess
Now if anyone will have me
Is anybody's guess

Repeat chorus
