You and Me and Our Wicked Ways

Liner Notes

Sitting in the waiting room at my son’s 30 minute drum lesson. Saw a skirmish just started — hand stuck in the toilet? Hmm. If I go somewhere not literal…

Well, every relationship ends up in the toilet sometimes. Hope we can make it through.

Lyrics

Let’s not try to tame each other
Little bit of live ‘n’ let em live
Save a touch of fight for the middle of the night
When it’s harder to remember to forgive

You and me and my wicked ways
You and me for the balance of our days
Sittin’ on the sofa with the plastic cover over
Leavin’ condensation circles on the window sill
It don’t hurt yet — but it will

I’m not gonna be your answer
Get yourself a book of maps
But you bet I’ll cook a little ‘n’ sometimes be your pillow,
Hold you when we need a nap

You and me and your wicked ways
You and me for the balance of our days
Sittin’ on the sofa with the plastic cover over
Leavin’ condensation circles on the window sill
It don’t hurt yet — but it will

Wrote a note already on a paper plate with Sharpie
Read it when this thing goes south
Put it in your nightstand
Some days flow like quicksand
Baby, kiss me on the mouth

You and me and our wicked ways
You and me for the balance of our days
Sittin’ on the sofa with the plastic cover over
Leavin’ condensation circles on the window sill
It don’t hurt yet — but it will

We might just make it, still
