Liner Notes

Another challenge laid down at my feet by @cindyrella to which I gladly accepted. For some reason I thought to myself "can this song be a one chord wonder" and "what would James Brown do" at the same time and this is what came out of the conversation I had running in my head.

Lyrics

Nuts
© 2024 Cindy Prince

I thought you quirky
Somewhat fun
That is until
One by one
You went off the rails
Were more that insane
A true weirdo
And quite a pain

You clung to me
Like I was a lifeguard
Dealing with you
Was getting very hard
You were unbalanced
You had screws loose
You had so many problems
I wish you'd vamoose

Chorus
As the saying goes
You were nuts
With a shell no one could crack
From head to toes
There could be no trust
Everything about you was out of whack

Bridge
I tried everything to get you to leave
Unless somebody saw you, they wouldn't believe

I called your doctor
Asked his advice
He knew your issues
And all your crazy lies
He helped me with you
I had to honestly hide
It's a pity really
What must be inside

Repeat chorus

Love this! The lyric is clever & written in a totally relatable way from the realization to the wisdom of "what must be inside". Very perceptive take on it all. And the music is so catchy and funky and gives it just the right vibe and ultimate "punch." Great harmonies. Cool song!

What a total banger of a choon!
I couldn’t have imagined this fabulous approach from reading Cindy’s clever and vitriolic lyrics but this is a takedown with style and panache and all the more impressive for it!
Great collab both! 🤩
