Overthinking again

I know, I know,
that’s just the way that it goes
I heard a “hello”
…it’s just an echo

But the slow jams never pan out as I plan,
as if anything could be so convenient
I’m just a new toy you keep in the box
You can pick me up
just to get the dust off of me

Face to face, eye to eye
Same coin, two sides for you & I
I slap half my mind on a picket sign

Ooo, you big man, you piece of meat,
you silent scream of a dying breed -
…you wanna a piece of me?

I’ll put an asterisk on your last disaster,
& laugh when the footnotes shatter

It feels like momentum pushing back on the friction,
but it’s slipping
you never listen

I think you’ve got the wrong tree,
the way you bark at me
Whatever we may be, can we just be?
No, it’s dog eat dog
So come on, you gotta eat, dog
… eat!

Face to face, eye to eye
Same coin, two sides for you & I
I slap half my mind on a picket sign


Yeah, you know me, I’m a dime a dozen
Cold when the sun left

I said, “Goddamn, what good is dancing
when it’s only maneuvering?”

Fake It

Sky View

This is one of my favorites from S&G - It truly exemplifies Paul Simon's mastery of songwriting at the most fundamental and humanistic level. I salvaged these mono guitar & vocal tracks from a failed cover video attempt, then added the extra instrumentation afterwords. I'm wishing I had spent more time learning the details of Paul's guitar part, but I hope I did it justice nonetheless.
