light hearted lyrical sarcasm and original music inspired by a lifetime of accompanying a boatload of excellent musicians.
With the exception of Mango Chutneyed, everything posted here results from home recording in which alll the tunes posted are original compositions of mine, with performances on the various tracks also by me.

Lyrics
I don’t like diseases; I don’t do what pleases You want some romancin’; you’d rather be dancing I don’t want to be a magician; you don’t want to answer the phone I know what I’m missing; I’d rather be here alone I laugh at elections, I’m into confections You strive for perfection, you can’t take correction I don’t want to be a physician, you don’t want to make me your clone I know what I’m missin’, I’d rather be here alone I am an island, I’m a rock; who’s got a better show Once I get stalled in my rockin’ chair, no one can get me to go Just fence me in to my home sweet home, ozone is a A no -no! Don’t try to shuttle me in to space; you’ll never get me to go Don’t paint me a picture; don’t quote me from scripture I don’t need direction, I don’t crave affection You don’t have to be a technician; I got no erogenous zone I know what I’m missing; I’d rather be here alone.
