about

: This one was also from the CT session. This was a new song I was working up at the time. I played drums as well as guitars on these three tunes, which was tricky. Greg gave me the idea for the lyrics, about a guy who discovers he’s not as smart as he thinks he is. I had to kind of cajole Greg into singing the lyrics, as he was a bit reticent about the second verse. To me it signified a bit of a dichotomy between Greg’s more utopian West Coast sensibility and my City of Big Shoulders viewpoint. I think he killed it on the vocals, in the end.

lyrics

-Straight Shooter- J. Niimi
Act like a brat
Talk like a tool
Swallow my poison
Lose my cool
You would never think
I’m a man of guilt
I bought you some flowers
But they are starting to wilt.

This is my private song
Nobody sings along cum when you
Hear my song.

Im the world’s smartest man
With the world’s biggest
Cock,
This song is called Straight Shooter
Are you ready to rock?
All the faultfinders, the
Retiring types, Raise your hands
If I live up to the hype

This is my private song, nobody sings along,
But me.
Heres the adgenda total remorse
One more addenda no recourse
This is my private song,
Nobody sings along but me.
