Reception

about

Recently finished getting my studio put together after a little more than a year here in St. Petersburg, Florida.

This is the first thing finished in it.

Its a cover of a Trip Shakespeare song about a guy who gets drunk at his ex girlfriend's wedding.

I love singing songs about guys who have made serious tactical errors.

lyrics

Away.

On the lawn I fell to dreaming
And the darkness whirled around me
All the brighter plans are buried.
Drunk now. Virginias married

Seven dresses bent around me
Seven girls the maids of honor
Then they took the cup I carried.
Drunk now. Virginias married.

Seven men went in to hear the band
All laughing I can't understand
Drunk now. Virginias Married.

And then they say that you must stay
But you must make your plans to get away
And then they say that I must stay away.

On the steps I felt a darkness
And her friends came all around me
Then I saw the darkness only
Drunk now. I will be lonely.
