Nothing is more frustrating to me than trying to write a song when the magic ain't happening. I've been feeling like a song is just about to pop outta my skull, but it has yet to materialize on a page.

So in the mean time, I offer the music gods this little ditty. The melody is in my head; think a pop-punk sound with a fuzzy guitar and crushing drums that break down into a funky groove over the chorus. At the same time, imagine Barenaked Ladies are playing this (I can just hear Steven Page wailing this out).

The tentative title is "Get Off." Enjoy!

Is it wrong to think that we could possibly be something more than all you ever wished for?
What if it is nothing more than boredom with responsibility? Take it from me�

Don�t believe in polygamy.
But I�m bored with monogamy
And nothing says infidelity takes three.

I hope that you can understand the difference between lust and love is passion and experience.
But straddling the way we do, we�ve got a perfect view across the fence�We�re not innocent.

Do I sound like a hypocrite?
I don�t think I�ll get over it
Until I�m under, above, around and spent

Chorus
Everyone jump up and down.
Everybody turn around.
Everyone flip upside down.
Everybody must get off.

Is it wrong to think that while we lie in silence things won�t be exactly how they used to be?
The pleasure of the moment�s past and I don�t have the heart to ask, but would you please leave.

And now that the story�s done
I should say, �Thanks, that was fun.�
Don�t forget no regrets* �til the sun sets.

Chorus
Everyone jump up and down.
Everybody turn around.
Everyone flip upside down.
Everybody must get off.
