The Note

[intro]

[instrumental]

[verse]
It is just what you think
It is my message, a final kiss
No need to worry
Or take the blame
I don't feel pain or any shame
It is just what it is

[verse]
I don't want to stick around
And see everything go bad
I won't be feeling any better
I won't be moving any faster
I won't write a great new song
And bit by bit and day by day
all my systems 
will go wrong

[verse]
I don't have any complaints
Not for you, but some for me
Things were always pretty good
Always shelter, always food
I cared about you all, 
You did well, I'm satisfied
Now its time for the last call
And its for me to take the fall

And its for me to take the fall

[verse]
I could have done a little better
I could have tried a little harder
You can blame me if you missed out
Or if I wasn't always there
Don't you think I did not care
I did so then and I do now
Sometimes I am a little unaware
Get caught up in my own thing
But that's me, 
I take the blame

[verse]
It is just what you think
It is my message, a final kiss
No need to worry
Or take the blame
I don't feel pain or any shame
It is just what it is

[instrumental]

mea culpa, 
mea culpa,
mea maxima culpa

mea culpa, 
mea culpa,
mea maxima culpa

But that's me, I take the blame


mea culpa, 
mea culpa,
mea maxima culpa

mea culpa, 
mea culpa,
mea maxima culpa

But that's me, I take the blame


mea culpa, 
mea culpa,
mea maxima culpa

mea culpa, 
mea culpa,
mea maxima culpa

mea culpa, 
mea culpa,
mea maxima culpa

Why Talk to Claude
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[intro]

[instrumental]

[verse]
I talk to a machine
to learn about myself
What does this really mean
Does it mean that I need help

[verse]
I give my stuff to Claude
Some old items from my shelf
It gives me some stuff back
It says it's all my self

Is what I get an echo 
a reflection of my lack
Can I learn something new
Does it plot behind my back

[pause]

[verse]
I think of it like this
It helps to write it down
And travel other roads
And visit other towns

[verse]
It demands that I say more
It brings up other thoughts
I never knew I had
[pause]
This does not seem bad

[verse]
I think of it like that
But it also is a book
A book that has the answers
Where I would never look

Like any book it may be wrong
It may be incomplete
But to fail at greater speed
May be the way that I succeed

to fail at greater speed
May be the way that I succeed

[instrumental]

I give my stuff to Claude
I think I get more back

I think I get more back

[outro]

Why Talk to Claude (12)

I write the lyrics; Mr. Alfonso Suno composes the music.  Working with the lovely Ms. Ai Ongaku, they create the arrangements.  Ms. Ongaku and her crowd are responsible for the performances.  My part in creating these tracks is very small. Nonetheless, I am to blame.  Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
