Jamie Simons - Back pocket (and update!)

HELLO FRIENDS! Thank you for all the input... I have decided on "Back Pocket" for the title... although there were plenty of ther excellent suggestions. This song is going to be on my demo, I hope it tickles your fancy a bit. Thank you to everyone who has stuck with me over the past year watching my youtube videos!

Much looooove,
Jamie

Lyrics:
sometimes i get stuck in a place to familiar, comfortably mundane and it's drivin me insane
i could be a big fish, in a small pond, but the water's gettin shallow i'm running out of room
so i check myself in the mirror, to see if it adds up, or if its gettin clearer
but lately my reflection has been mocking me
and it laughs and it points and says 'whatcha doin son?', ya gotta get to work stop havin all of this` fun
just put down the guitar and pick up a briefcase, put on a suit and head to the workplace
if money measures happiness then this is pretty sad, im gettin fed up with the luck that i've had,
but i just booked some tickets on a plane for two cuz i don't care about benjamins, i care about you

if i was the earth and you were the moon, i'd never let you out of my sight, there'd be no high noon
i'd bargain with the sun, i'd give up all my stars, to keep midnight in my back pocket, cuz baby you never shine too soon.

so i took a short drive down to the reservoir, grabbed a pen and paper and popped out of my car
found a warm bench but no inspiration, as joggers flew by some runnin some racin
looked to the sky and the water and trees, oh won't you help me help me please
find a little bit'a guidance and some direction, cuz i had it up to hear with all this guessin
so i wrote and i wrote, with no abandon, cuz lucrative jobs your man ain't landin'
but i'm done sittin round, gotta go out and take it, cuz i can do anything if magic made it
i appreciate kanye for his words of wisdom, now just grab the ones you love and make sure you've kizzed em
cuz tomorrow may be promised but it's not guaranteed, and when the 'ish hits the fan, my love is free

they say don't hate the player but you're right to hate the game,
better bring you rain coat cuz i'ma make it rain....
they say don't hate the player but you're right to hate the game,
better bring your flood pants cuz i'ma make it rain...
they say don't hate the player but you're right to hate the game,
better call helen hunt and bill paxton cuz i'ma make it.... tornado

Eu gosto dos seus vídeos, você canta muito, e fico olhando você cantar e e faz parecer tão simples, fácil.

[cactusprint]

great song. i like the title "big fish"

[rockysungrown]

I like simpler and shorter titles like "back pocket" as opposed to "in my back pocket"

others:

"shine"

"tornado"

"to soon"

"midnight"

keep up the good work bro

[aussielaxr]

That or "Twister II"

PS I wish you were coming to my fiesta tonight. Miss you.

[aussielaxr]

Obviously I adore you and this song, as for the title I think everyone here is on the wrong track and you'll agree that a play on words is in order: "Sucks S" (success/sucks shit)

[lilyjoy3]

this is amazing.....

i like "You never shine too soon"

or  "my love is free"

or "midnight in my back pocket"

All good, but none are as good as the lyrics to this one.... well done, man.

[dewgreen14]

I'm gonna make it rainnnnnn

[brums05]

"My Moon" great stuff, sir, great stuff

[Kronos32]

you call it the "universes mother nature"

[caoticlunatic]

YOU my friend are the greatest!

i agree with RVW33 100%

"you never shine too soon"

5 stars!
