about

Some little fluff that allowed me to try out this idea: how can a modest singer survive against a string quartet as good as “Barbouze de chez Fior”? The answer probably is “barely”, but I also strived to keep the song short so I got out alive!

lyrics

Not Amused

Did I outstay my welcome
Did I linger for too long
Did I instill some boredom
Too many verses for a song ?

Yet I don’t know what to do
‘Cause I still long for you…

Was I pushy and obsessive
And you were not amused
Was I fishing for incentives -
My long eluding muse ?

Yet I don’t know what to do
‘Cause I still long for you -
Long for you…

Did I outstay my welcome
Did I linger for too long
Never grasped our elders’ wisdom
To leave you the hell alone ?

Yet I don’t know what to do
I’m still bound to long for you…

You left me frantic, torn and used
You were no fun – a burning fuse
And I am not
Amused.

(maybe I’m just confused…)
