Little More of Me...Little Less of You

VERSE 1
You got your life under control
The situation's well in hand
Ain't no time for second guessing
Gotta keep pace with the plan

But I been pushed into the background
Without no recompense
And now you got me using
Selfishness in self-defense

CHORUS
But I won't play no second fiddle
To your bass trombone
And I can't pay the fee to park
In your erogenous zone
So baby if you say you're gonna
Wanna see this whole thing through
There'll be a little more me
And a little less you

VERSE 2
You're the consummate consumer
And I'm feelin kinda spent
Don't know why I'm in the doghouse
When I'm paying penthouse rent

You been saving up your lovin
Now you got a bill to pay
Well girl it's time to stop the hoarding
Cuz I'm your rainy day

CHORUS
But I won't play no second fiddle
To your bass trombone
And I can't pay the fee to park
In your erogenous zone
So baby if you say you're gonna
Wanna see this whole thing through
There'll be a little more me
And a little less you

VERSE 3
Your motives are a mystery
Your meaning's so unclear
Is it carelessness or callousness
It looks the same from here

I'm the victim of an attitude
You've cut my patience to the bone
You can find yourself a change of heart
Or you can find yourself alone

CHORUS
But I won't play no second fiddle
To your bass trombone
And I can't pay the fee to park
In your erogenous zone
So baby if you say you're gonna
Wanna see this whole thing through
There'll be a little more me
And a little less you

There'll be a little more me
And a little less you

There'll be a little more me
And a whole lot less of you

Hi Bob:

Thanks so much for writing to me to let me know about the music. Oh how careless of me, I didn't even check. I'm going to have to download "RealPlayer" now to listen. I have "WindowsMedia Player" and "Winamp" but I don't have "RealPlayer", so it will be a while until I get to listen to the songs. Quite and interesting site you've got there.

I'll download first and I'll be there in a while.

Thank you so much for letting me know!!!!!

Sandie Angel :o)

Well I think a little bit of work on the grammar and the rhythm might make this a better song.

I don't know, it's just my humble opinion.

Sandie Angel :o)
