I'm Angry 02:01
I’m angry, head to toe I’m angry, everybody knows When I get goin’, I can’t stop When I get mad, I blow my top Stay that way until I drop I’m angry It’s just how I get my kicks Gettin’ upset about politics. Ravin’ bout them dirty tricks Get worked up till I’m sick It’s a wonder I’m alive It’s a wonder I survive Don’t know if there is a fix I know my temper’s pretty quick I’ve been told I am a dick I’m angry ”He’s Angry”, Head to Toe! “So Angry”, Pole to Pole Don’t know if there is a fix I’ve been upset since I was six! Know my temper’s pretty quick I’m angry Don’t know if there is a fix I’ve been upset since I was six! Something's brewing deep inside I gotta tell ya, don’t try to hide Don’t resist I’ll make you listen Might just be you I’m dissin’ Go to far from time to time It’s just how I clear my mind Don’t know if there is a fix Been upset since I was six I might be a dick I’m Angry

Mediocre 02:58
I got a taste of fame, when I was just a kid But I’m glad I didn’t get, more than I did Cause if I had, made it to the top I would have never survived, survived the drop! I'm So Happy I'm Mediocre I'm So Happy that I'm Mediocre The BIG TIME has eluded me You’ll never see me, on tv But I’m so damn glad I’m not, one of the greats If I was just, a little bit better, When I was just a kid And I’d got more than a taste of fame I would never have gotten Gotten over it! I'm So Happy I'm Mediocre I’d be out on the road, for 200 days You’d never see me, we’d go different ways It was my passion, It was my dream, But that was when I was 17, Yeah that was when I was 17 I'm So Happy I'm Mediocre I'm So Happy that I'm Mediocre SHOW BIZ is a big no show You’ll never hear me on the radio! So damn glad I’m not, one of the greats I'm So Happy I'm Mediocre

I like the way you touch me I like the way you smell You know when I’m excited You can always tell You can always tell Won’t you kiss me some more Won’t you kiss me some more Won’t you kiss me some more Won’t you kiss me some more I like your timing You know when it’s right Sometimes in the Evening Sometimes in the night Sometimes late at night What’s gonna happen When you're loving me? You’re so creative I just wait and see. Won’t you kiss me some more Won’t you kiss me some more Won’t you kiss me some more Won’t you kiss me some more

If these old strings could talk, I wonder what they’d say “Hey we're gettin’ pretty old You should change us out, today” If these old strings could talk They’d ask me where you are And why I’m not, writing about you But drinkin’ in a bar When you’re sad, You got all the time in the world All the time, all the time in the world When you lose a girl You got all the time in the world All the time, all the time in the world When you’re sad, You got all the time in the world All the time, all the time in the world When you lose a girl You got all the time in the world All the time, all the time in the world They’d say Why are you just waiting Stringing us along We’re waiting for your masterpiece An extraordinary song. They’d say when you break up You’ve all the time in the world For writing songs and missing That extraordinary girl When you’re sad, You got all the time in the world All the time, all the time in the world When you lose a girl You got all the time in the world All the time, all the time in the world If these old strings could talk I wonder what they’d say “Hey we're gettin’ pretty old You should change us out, today”

She said “Play the song the one about bacon It really gets me in the mood Play the song, the one about bacon It's my favorite food, yeah, it’s my favorite food!” On the stove it can’t be beat When ya cook it, it’s the best smellin’ meat It goes with eggs, it goes with toast I think that bacon G-is the most I think that bacon is the D-most I want you all to sing along, If you can relate to this song Sing it true, don't be fakin', Cause this song is all about bacon It’s the bacon song She said “Play the song the one about bacon It really gets me in the mood” Play the song, the one about bacon Why that’s my favorite food, yeah, it’s my favorite food! On the stove it can’t be beat Without Bacon, breakfast ain't complete! It goes with eggs, it goes with toast I think that bacon G-is the most I think that bacon is the D-most She said “Play the song the one about bacon It really gets me in the mood” Play the song, the one about bacon Why that’s my favorite food, yeah, it’s my favorite food!

about

Although drumming is his madness, Dave has always also played the guitar. But he didn’t get really serious about making music on six strings until 2017, when the muses unexpectedly chose to shine their lights on him, and ten songs mysteriously appeared in his previously drum-centric brain. Seriously. These songs just showed up. What songwriter wouldn’t love that? ~Rich Upton
