song 43 "Polite Coversation"

The muting on the guitar was hard for me to play and sing. I considered getting one of my kids to clap for me in place of it. Instead, I ended up having to do a fair amount of takes to get it half way decent.

I can't get away

so I'm going to stay here for a while

I can't get a break

I can't get out the door

and it's inches away

I just can't seem to turn around

as I listen to what you say

Now I've got my hand on the handle

but I'm still listening to you

You know I've got somewhere to be

and I've got other things to do

I know you said "Just one more thing!"

but that lead to just one more thing

and that keeps happening again and again

and your voice is just ring ring

ringing in my ears

I can't get away

so I'm going to stay here for a while

I can't get a break
