My Songs

Music & lyrics by Marc Gwinn back in the early 1990's. Melancholy depiction of a slave's thoughts toward his/her master.

Inspired by Janis Ian's "Seventeen". Chorus shifts to Dm; bridge shifts to Eb. Drums are looped. This song tells the sordid tale of my very first sexual encounter, which begat my first official relationship. I mistook sex for love. Got burned. Duh.

Working With Others

How I Work:

2 1-liter bottles of Evian, chilled
1 Costo-size tub of peanut butter
1 5-lb. block of dark chocolate
1 large turine of ONLY brown M&M's
1 entourage of 5-7 yes-women
1 ego-stroke performed every half-hour
500 Dr. Zoltan bumper stickers, autographed and coated with the good doctor's sweat
1 sacrificial goat
1 sacrificial virgin (preferably over 40)
3 Catholic priests to exorcise the demonic power forcing me to sacrifice a goat and a 40-year-old virgin
1 phonecall from jail after being arrested by the Joke Police for that last abject attempt at subreferenced movie humor
2 Alka-Seltzer tabs to anyone trying to absorb this ridiculous list
