excellent.. nicely produced too. comes over well

Great song Joe! Life is really starting to blow! I'm glad I'm retired from the Rat Race! Awesome lyrics!👍😎✌🏼

Fine song again! That second verse...yeah...most of us know that. Always a joy to listen to your compositions.

Great job on this one, it builds up and changes sections so wonderfully!!! And these vocals SLAP 👋 🎺🎤

Hey Joe man, love this song! I subscribe to the same regimen. Hey man, great song!

It does help!  And a Hans and Fronz reference is what more music needs. Great track

Wild Wild West (Album Version)

Every day it feels like the world’s getting a little more crazy
Every day the future feels a little bit more hazy

Well there’s one thing I like to do 
When I’m feeling blue
That makes me feel okay 
When I’m having a bad day

I pick up my dumbbells and I watch a fitness video on my TV
And I exercise all those negative thoughts right out of me
I lift those weights up and down and I huff and I puff 
And I keep on going at it until I think I’ve had enough

Every time I go to the grocery store the food is more expensive
I go home, I look at my bank account, I feel so apprehensive
I drive to work, every day and the commute is not that great
I turn on the news, it’s so bad, the world is in a sorry state

After a hard day of working 9 to five
Like Hans and Franz on Saturday Night Live
You can pick up your dumbbells
And pump yourself up. You can do it.
Or you can lie on the sofa and watch TV
If you want to bed rot it’s so easy
And the only burn you’ll feel is from the hot sauce on your chicken wings
It’s not the same.

I pick up my dumbbells and I lift them
And I embrace all the pain
And I push all the negative thoughts right out of my brain
I lift those weights up and down and I huff and I puff 
And I keep on going at it until I think I’ve had enough

Some people turn to donuts when they’re feeling overstressed
We all need to do that we think is the best
As for me I’d rather grab my dumbbells and work up a good sweat
As I try to keep up with the fitness coaches on my TV set
As for me I’d rather grab my dumbbells and work up a good sweat
As I try to keep up with the fitness coaches on my TV set

O So Sorry

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious). I can strum a guitar and play chords on the piano but, in regards to my songs, I am using a variety of software tools to try to make my songs sound as good I can - constantly chipping away at them using Logic Pro X 
 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud.
