about

Recorded and engineered at Appalachian State University recording studio by Jake Urquhart.

lyrics

In the beginning was a guitar
But I was disturbed to discover it didn’t make me a star
I had to sell my soul to the devil
Before I could learn to reach that higher level

I’m wasting all my time with this
I’m wasting all my time with this
But everything’s good, it’s just where it should be

Then in the middle was a piano
But it was always out of tune on the patio
I tried the flute, and I tried the tuba
But those woodwinds and brass mean nothing to ya

I’m wasting all my time with this
I’m wasting all my time with this
But everything’s good, it’s just where it should be

I tried the drums and I tried the bass
But I broke my thumbs and I went to waste
I tried to sing and I played the notes
But I broke my strings and I hurt my throats

Then in the end came the admission
That I should never become a musician

I’m wasting all my time with this
I’m wasting all my time with this
But everything’s good, it’s just where it should be today
