This one just sort of fell together while jamming to a drumbeat.


THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG

I can't see 'cause there's no light
But I can feel it in the middle of the night
I got the shakes, my brain is fried
I can't move 'cause I'm terrified
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm getting ready to flee or fight
But I know I have a choice
And I look cool in my polaroids

Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, there's something wrong
Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, there's something wrong

Now, I don't mean to cause a riot
All I know is that it's too damn quiet
It's like the lull before the storm
A single bee just before the swarm
I wanna be like an alpha male
And feel real strong and never fail
If there's a God, just lend a hand
And help me be a much braver man

Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, there's something wrong
Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, there's something wrong

I hear a sound, I hear a creak
I wish to hell I didn't feel so weak
In my hand I've got a gun
So, should I stay or should I run
I got a feeling I'm not alone
Then I hear the ringing of the telephone
The only thing that chills my bone
Is I don't own no telephone!!


Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, there's something wrong
Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, there's something wrong
Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, there's something wrong
Don't want to cause alarm
I tell you straight, that there's something wrong

another great rocking track Ron...
and I loved the lyrics... and this line puts a nail in this lively coffin of a song...

"Then I hear the ringing of the telephone
The only thing that chills my bone
Is I don't own no telephone!!"

Now that's a rocker! There's the kind of groove that makes me think of Shania Twain! Perhaps you should collaborate with Mutt Lange?

I agree with the S. That harp does the trick! Mean as a whistle, but dirtier sounding.

Such a prolific guy.  I barely got to listen to your last one and you put up a new tune.  :D

Some more great harp work in addition to your usual high standards on the guitar, vox and everything else.

Jeez, Ron you're turning out these great rockers like shelling peas. All the best ingredients for a  stellar rock/blues track. Excellent stuff.

That blues harp kinda reminds me a bit of 'When the levee breaks' harp.

Sweet!

Life is not about the number of Breathes you take, it is the amount of times your breathe is taken away

Don't want to cause alarm but what a fine storytelling in your lyrics.nice to listen too on my sundaymorning Coffee session.
I do have an electric bass and guitar, i do have an acoustic guitar. I even have a keyboard and a Roland drum set What I seem to miss is skills. So to cure my at least 40y frustration I dicovered my instrument being my voice. So I finaly had the nerve to take singing lessons and make my voice heared thanks to Songcrafters.
