Description:
The coda here, and nothing else, is taken from a Liz Phair song, I don't think the style is much her though - although must say I love here to death.

I think this song is about falling in love in high school when letters and corner store sodas meant more than they do today. Thoughts?

Lyrics:
Black shoes on and a white dress
You're 'bout to take me to test.
Cuz' if Jesus Christ came,
I'd wanna be on my best, test
Cuz' if Jesus Christ came,
I'd wanna be on my best.

I been walking this sunlight,
Such a very long and lonely time,
I been walking this sunlight,
For such a very, long, time
I been walking this sunlight,
For such a very, long, time

Take my remote control my darling,
Flip my channels,
Take my cable and plug me in,
Cuz' I need to know what's going on,
I need to know
Cuz' I need to know what's going on, in this big ol' world.

I don't mind you, I don't mind you,
I don't mind you,
I just have to wait for something better,
I don't mind you, at all.

Beach time is fun time,
Let's go waste our lives on the water tide,
I want a boy friend
I want all that stupid shit,
Like letters and sodas,
I want--- letters and sodas,
Letters and sodas.

you ned to do some work with the sound of your guitar. It is very flat
sounding, and not balanced well with the vocals.

Nice tune tho...not my thing for sure, but with a bit of work, this will be
excellent. I think a nice bass track or something to fill up the low end
would be helpful as well.

good work!

Cool song, and nice singing. I like the reverb on your vocals. The vocals sound loud to me; at their loudest, they tend to drown out the guitar and drums. I think you could push them back a little and get more of the full musical sound. That's probably a matter of taste, but anyway... another good song, nice going!
