Perry Jerome Opinion on these songs (29) RE: Opinion on these songs 29 Apr 09


Yeah I know I have trouble enunciating, especially when it's a song that I haven't been playing for terribly long. But I am working on it, and if you can believe it I have much better delivery than I used to. haha. And I'll try to deliver better on the next song I post. Thanks.

and here are the lyrics as per request.
Straight and True
V1        I think I've reached a point where I can be myself again
I don't know when or where I lost touch and got lost out in the rain
V2        I'm sorry things didn't work out, and we caused each other pain
But I still miss you my darling. Even though sometimes you drove me insane
Chorus
I'm going to take this guitar that you bought for me and make myself a name
I'll try my best to be happy, and I hope that you'll do the same
V3        I still miss holding you in bed at night and waking you up with a kiss
But you'll always have my friendship, and I'll be there if you wish
V4        Whenever I see you I think back to the first time that we held each other close
My heart starts pounding and my head gets light, and I get white as a ghost
Chorus
V5        What I'm trying to say is this my dear I'll always be here for you
Whether it's someone to hold or someone to talk to, I'll always be straight and true

Bulk Disposable World
V1        This bulk disposable world is really convenient to me
I go outside and I get into my big brand new SUV
V2        I drive down to the "Mega-Mart" thirty seconds down my home street
I fill up on crates of microwave junk food that I can throw out if I don't finish it
Chorus
I'll use a world today and a world tomorrow, I usually use seven a week
And when I'm done with them all I put them out on the curd, and I don't care what happens after that
V3        This bulk disposable world is getting too dirty for me
So pull out the Whet-Ones and new Swiffer Dusters and let's tuck some of the mess away
Chorus
V4        Let's fill up the landfills and empty the oceans, let's use it while it's still around
Because our kid's won't mind cleaning up our mess, and living like it's the dark ages again
V5        So have another bottle of Coke and throw it into the sea, and drive your Hummer all across the USA
Let's tap out the oil wells and chop down the tree's and burn all that was green and good
Chorus

Edge of a Knife
V1        I've got no money to pull me through. I've got no honey that feels true, and I've got no time to talk to you
V2        I've been playing these bars for all of my life. I've been driving these cars that have gone to shit, and I feel like I'm living on the edge of a knife
Chorus
Come over here and make me feel good. I'll give you my heart if you give me some food. Let's go upstairs and start acting rude
V3        My bologna fund is running low. I can't even afford some decent blow, and there's some green on my foot and it's starting to grow
V4        Would someone save me before I'm done in? Would someone please save from this life of sin? Could you please pull me out of this bottle of gin?
Chorus

So let me know what you think.
