Verse 2

If you yell more after every song,

it's going to seem like

I did a really long show.

He came back 20 -30 times,

is what you'll remember.

Well, you know,

I'm hearing now,

see how rude of me, I mean, I know where I am,

so I know that you guys probably want to sing.

And I'm singing,

and you know, I know now

people are sitting out there,

see now I'm starting to suss it out here,


people are sitting out there

thinking, I want to sing,

I don't know these songs.

And I just sang one, you know,

I just sang one that you knew,

and people are, whooo.

So now I'm thinking, okay, all right.

Now that doesn't mean that you have to,

Okay. I'll take that on

board as they say.

No, you know, I mean,

just because I'm not rushing right into it doesn't mean,

no, you know, it doesn't mean I'm ignoring it.

I'm thinking about it.

You had a very nice voice

and I'm thinking about it a lot. Okay. This is a song that if you want to

sing, and please, I have to tell you this, if you want to sing, I would be thrilled.

If you don't wanna sing, it's okay.

I mean, you paid to get in,

you don't have to work.

I know, no, people put on their

good clothes.

I mean, it's Monday night.

You know, you're already using one set of clothes more than you

need to get to Friday just to come here tonight, you know?

You get your shit all laid out,


and you go, okay, I got this.

Like, oh no, I gotta go see him

on Monday night.

I gotta wear this.

So if you don't wanna, you know,

if you have to wear it again tomorrow,


you might not wanna sweat in it.

So in which case, don't sing.

But if you don't care,

and you're like me,

and you've already broken a sweat,

you might want to sing.
