Subject: RE: Lyr. & chord req: Penis Envy by Uncle Bonsai
rosebrook,

It's nice to meet another Uncle Bonsai fan. Too bad they broke up. I'm not sure Penis Envy is the highlight of their repetoire, but I think I would have known it was one of Andrew's songs just by reading it.

I was lucky to see them the one time they came to Baltimore. I was enticed by hearing just one song on the radio and I was very happy I went.

I have not heard this song, but most of Andrew's song structures were melodically simple, but his guitar work is rhythmically complex. I think he was fond of the key of Am also, if any of this helps.
