Eddie Mugavero: music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

Chris had this cool bass riff, so we decided to write a song around it. I remember us writing chords and then a melody, thinking Beatles meet Al Hirt. A very different way to write a song. Took it home and wrote these words. One of my most enjoyable co-writing sessions ever and maybe my favorite song on our "JONESIN'" album.

FOR A SONG

SONG WHERE WILL YOU TAKE ME?
SONG..SPARE ME OR BREAK ME
HERE WE GO AGAIN..

GOD HELP ME IGNORE THESE
ODDS SWELLING BEFORE ME
STEER ME TO THE END

FOR A SONG WHAT I DO FOR A SONG
RIGHT OR WRONG WHAT I CHOOSE FOR A SONG
ALL TO GAIN ALL TO LOSE
ALL IN THE NAME OF RHYME, RHYTHM, AND BLUES
FOR A SONG, WHAT I DO FOR A SONG!

MY CHOICES HAVE MADE ME
MY VOICES PERSUADE ME
I’M WHERE I BELONG

FOR A SONG WHAT I GIVE FOR A SONG
SHORT OR LONG I WILL LIVE FOR A SONG
LET IT PLAY LET IT SING
PUSH MY BUTTONS AND PULL MY STRING
FOR A SONG WHAT I DO FOR A SONG!
