lyrics

You’re wrong and I’m right
And that won’t change, not even if we fight
I’ll take that bet
And this will be the last of me you get

Offered the riches that went along with the realm
A seat at the table, even a turn at the helm
Just not too certain about the points that you’re sure on
‘Cause you know “negative feedback” is such an oxy-damned-moron

You’re there and I’m here
And that’s the long and short of it, my dear
I live this way
And that is all Her Highness has to say

Offered the riches that went along with the realm
A seat at the table, even a turn at the helm
But that bad machinery’d only tear me to tatters
And I got plans for the future – well, you know, not that it matters

Offered the riches that went along with the realm
A seat at the table, even a turn at the helm
Whispering voices too soft and soothing to measure
Why be a regional hero when you’re a national treasure?

And you can tell your friends that I changed

Val Yumm
by Val Yumm

When this came out in 2003 I played the CD 'til it BROKE. Smart, catchy, beautifully rendered alt-rock goodness. Singer/songwriter/guitarist Val Yumm made me feel seen AND rocked my socks off. Mary Prankster
