Liner Notes

Another one. Bit rockier this time with drums

Lyrics

Working for you has given me no pleasure
You really know how to make a man feel small
Days were long, too miserable to measure
It really was a long way down to fall

I’m gonna tell you some home truths
I’m gonna spell it out
And though the language may be uncouth
I’m looking for a payout

I know that we sailed close the wind
Somethings we shouldn’t have done
Now I’ve been standing downwind
And it stinks round here for everyone

So please listen to my terms
I’ve not been unreasonable
I will state them once again
Then I’ll wish that I’d pressed send

(c) words and music G Todd 2025

Love some of the lines here, like home truths. The olfactory imagery is great. Ending has a nice little bit of bite.
The tone in your performance matches it great

Another great take and a different lyrical angle yet again. In awe of your creativity!

The lyrics spell out the who, what, and why very well, and then the slow, soulful music shows how the emotion plays out. Nicely put together!
