Hey, a song and recording like this could get you signed to Stiff Records. (I'll see you later!)

delightful, Jon.  I always love your lilt <3

C'mon, this is a classic tune masquerading as a day-ago post!! And that solo note at 2:34 is a big Yes!!

So catchy and adeptly arranged, fine work Jon!

instant like - great lyrics - immediately engaging

Lyrics:

Oh baby please don’t let me be the
Secular version of a vestal virgin
My soul is pure but it’s light on burdens
What’s a boy to do if I knew
I’d tell you

Girl you’re fine
Drawn with a graceful line
Would it be that you were to opine
On the many virtues
I imagine are mine
 
Take a minute, hell make that two
What am I to do without you
You’ve got to shut your open eyes
Or your good sense will drive you to
Some other guy 

I say
Help me out
Free your mind of your
Valid doubts
I may be trouble procured
But ain’t that better then being bored

Can it be
Vis-à-vis me
That a light is shining
Showing you a way
A revelation of the mundane
To be determined
Oh my doll
Run for it

Callus is the knife
In the hand of a chosen disciple
You might be right
But that won’t stop you from being 
Unseated


Dark is the night
Dark is heart of a former lover
Dark is sun
In the hands
Of anybody other 
Than you
With the light 
Obscured

Darling says
I’m not listening 
Your big mouth is constantly ginning
For place
No one gets to
Amongst the allies 
And the byways that circle
Around
To nowhere

To Nowhere

I'm a conceptual musical artist but the concepts are vague and I'm not willing to explain them.
