Liner Notes

It's been another great FAWM, but I realized I was mere hours away from letting yet another FAWM slip by without fulfilling a goal I set in 2007 to complete a song featuring either sax or harmonica (neither of which I really now how to play).

So, here it is - 2009 and I finally tried harmonica!

Amusingly, while logging in to post this demo I saw a comment from Tim (JRamone) coaxing me to be bolder with my vocals... I may have taken it a little too far on this, but he's right, the more I put myself into it the more confident I get.

Lyrics

I guess the time has come
To admit that FAWM is over… at least for me
I guess it’s time… to get back to my life

And I guess the time has come
To pack up my FAWMing notebooks
And pay some attention to my lovely wife

[harmonica solo]

I guess the time has come
To finally work on my taxes
But this IRS audit’s really a bore

And I guess the time has come
To finally clean up the house
At least I could mop and clean the floors

I guess the time has come
To stop making excuses
But why do today what I can postpone?

I guess the time has come
To stop dragging this verse out
It’s time to drive this song home
