This is a song that I was inspired to write after I saw what David Meiklejohn and Davy Rothbart had been working on for their documentary, appropriately title "My Heart Is An Idiot". You could say it hit a nerve with me so I took it and ran with it. It is now the closing credits theme song! 
This is free for the taking so we hope you enjoy!

lyrics!

Did you ever know 
when you walk away
I turn and look back at you

One day at a time
I can feel is rising inside
wild eyes follow you away
knowing you may never feel the same way

My heart is an idiot
it only sees what it wants to
My heart is an idiot
it only beats when it wants to

There's nothing tonight
I want more than to be laying next to you
With your hand in mine 
where we oth know
it just feels right
while my mind slips away 
though  it's not ever as easy as they say

My heart is an idiot
it only sees what it wants to
My heart is an idiot
it only beats when it wants to

My heart is an idiot
it only sees that it wants you
My heart is an idiot
it only beats when it wants to

My Heart Is An Idiot

LYRICS:
I've seen a monkey evolve into a man. I've seen a man devolve into a monkey. I've seen a junky redeem himself with help. I've seen a wealthy man melt into the snow and blow his credit on a decongestant. Dyslexics breathe easy. The people in the top tax bracket just keep looking for freebies. Thumbing their noses at those in need of hand outs. I'm talkin' pan handlers with second hand clothes living hand to mouth, camping out on Capitol Hill. The fat cats are still insisting reparations be a jagged little pill. Today there's free vaccinations at the walk-in clinic. If you're lucky, you won't just be a guinea pig. Call me a cynic. I find it interesting how certain epidemics spread; more specifically...where they don't and who isn't affected. Yeah, I'm infected with a curious nature. The welcome mat said "God bless this home" not "God damn thy neighbor." They can repeat history but can't recycle paper. So they don't see the forest OR the trees...just sky scrapers. Towers of Babel in a town full of cattle, when I question their brand loyalty and the crowd is bedazzled. But I'll never be hoodwinked. I'm mindful of the footprints. The shape of the hoof. The way the path in the woods splits. The author of the book, the origin of the crucifix. The waitress looking for tips and the place where the cook spits. This is where I was when the bomb dropped. Hiding from the uninvited onslaught. I've seen people who don't believe in sleep count sheep with calculators that double as alarm clocks. From Noah's arc all the way to Rosa Parks, to black folk pushing white agendas inside of an office with flow charts. Technology ain't shit. We feed off the fruit. When I stuff leaves of absence in my briefcase...follow suit. Spill the liquid from your double fisted escapade. Kill kids with the drunken misfits in your Escalade. It's gruel for the food fight and foreign aid. Break 'em down and build 'em back up with what you throw away. Administering band aids on amputated limbs. Kissing 'em with air raids and you're lips gave 'em infections. Too many closed doors can lead to back drafts. Now the spring edition of fashion catalogues feature gas masks. How becoming on these lanky models! They can't look at truth in the mirror without a pair of safety goggles. Hold the bobble head. Insert the feeding tube. Even if they stop breathing, make sure they keep eating food. Do the Shaivo. Mouth opened wide like a perversedpsycho circus side show... Forgive me not, for my patterns stay impartial to apologies. Despite a polite side of mine that says, "I'm so sorry." Adding flame infinitum to your eternal fuel tank. My higher power doesn't need to be thanked. Thanks anyway. Yeah, that's from him to me to you. I don't mind being the middle man, someday I might need one too. I'm at the fire. Where are you? I'm at the fire. Where the hell are you? 
I've seen a man devolve into a monkey. I've seen a monkey evolve into a man. I've seen it all, upside down, in-between, inside out, It's neither here nor there. Hoof marks in the sand. I've fallen...head first into the pit of my stomach. Taught to trust my gut, got no trust in the gutless. Save some hope for the hopeless, but I won't show it. Shoot my load in an opus. Now it's an open casket. Going to Hades in a hand basket. Holding onto a dream, but lately we can't grasp it. There's been too much murder and not enough martyr. Why is it no one else wants to impress Jodie Foster? 
You can't have revolution without evolution, huh?
You can't have evolution without volution, huh?
You can't volution without olution, huh?
Cuz you can't always get what you want. Uh uh, uh uh.
