Mr Pitiful
Live at Sputnik, Brooklyn, NY
September 8, 2006

I'm not a big fan of what George W. Bush has done with this country. This is a song about that. (It's a thinly veiled metaphor. I'm deep like that.) Let me know if you dig it or not.

Rock on.

I Know What You Need

That man he played you for a fool
For the whole wide world to see.
Now they're all laughing at you.
Don't you cry.
They just want everything for free.
What they say don't mean a thing to me.

Because I know what you need.
I know what you need.
I know what you need.
I got arms to hold you
And a heart to console you
But you got to come on home to me.

I seen you with your man.
Even that smile you used to fake so well is gone.
And those diamonds on your hand
Sparkle for sure.
But there's red flaws in some of them.
Where do you think he get's 'em from.
Oh I think you know because

I know what you need.
I know what you need.
I know what you need.
I got arms to hold you.
And a heart to console you.
But you got to come on home.

You're tellin' everyone you're fine
You can fix your makeup
But I can tell when Tears been in your eyes.

It's been a long long lonely time .
Eight years without love
Can break a man down till he dies
So why don't you swallow your pride because

I know what you need
I know what you need
I know what you need
I got arms to hold you
And a heart to console you
But you got to come on home
Said you got to come on home
Oh you got to come on home to me.

@monocromatika I hope you learned to sign language real good.

@shithole1978 I hate to agree with something rudely said, but your right, this guy sings out of key. I guess from the bands name he fancies himself an Otis Redding type singer. Otis' Intonation was spot on. Yeah, I would keep the day job:) Not trying to be an a-hole, but bad is bad.

[Implosion756]

Amazing song... nicely done.

The surrounding space was sweetly filled and defined, while the notes in the foreground were sharp and clear. The density of sound had a complexity and such an omneity that proved nothing short of Kepler Conjecture.

Thanks for the mini-concert. :)

@shithole1978 youre name says everything

[shithole1978]

This guy can't sing a note in tune, that's why he is shouting like a crazy drunk. Don't give up the day job. .........lol

[empressoffrance]

Passable, but not the man.

[ZouZiPai]

Shouting does not equal soul. Back to the drawing board for you. And jacking a song by one of the all time greats for your band name?  Please, if you are ganna do that, ya got to own it.

[shithole1978]

trying to hard, no soul.

[WinterSolice]

You've got a great voice.

Keep up the music.

Peace.
