Yes Please (Big Brother)
©2007 Lee Quick

Although we haven’t met
I admire what you do
What I do in my bed
really matters to you

O big brother-in-law, give advice to us all

Yes please tell us all, tell us what to believe
Yes please tell us all we are Adam and Eve
Yes please tell us all how the planet began
Yes please tell us all how to family plan
Yes please tell us all, tell us all, tell us all
I don’t know how we’d do it on our own

I appreciate
your concern for my soul
When you legislate
your morality code

Please proceed to decide just for your peace of mind

Yes please tell us all how to righteously live
Yes please tell us all who we better not kiss
Yes please tell us all how to follow our heart
Yes please tell us all how to death-do-us-part
Yes please tell us all, tell us all, tell us all
I don’t know how we’d do it on our own

We love big brother, we love big brother

I apologize
if my love life offends
I don’t mean to deprive
you of your happiness

Life is so simplified when you make up my mind

Yes please tell us all how to choose what we choose
Yes please tell us all how to play by the rules
Yes please tell us all who to hate, who to love
Yes please tell us all you are watching above
Yes please tell us all, tell us all, tell us all
I don’t know how we’d do it on our own

Yes please…
We love big brother…

Twenty-three Six [demo]
©2005 Lee Quick

When we were in high school, you and me sure were the best of friends
But now that we're in life, I only see you when a blue moon shines

When I got hitched, you came for the food
But when I broke up, you weren't in the mood
To lend an ear in my time of need
And when I call, you say you're really busy

Any hour of the day – you may be there
Any hour of the night – you might be there
Any day of the week – you could be there
I can count on you
Twenty-three six
Twenty-three six

I have always been a tower of strength when you could use a smile
It seems you'd have an hour or two to spare when I can't help but cry

When I buy lunch you come for the food
But when I go broke, you ain't in the mood
To lend a hand in my time of need
And when I call, you still say that you’re busy

[repeat Chorus]

Where have you been, where have you been, where have you been
Fair-weather friend, fair-weather friend, fair-weather friend

I have always been the one to trust whenever you've been down
But I'm a little tired of standing up for one who's not around

So when you cook out, I'll come for the food
But when you break down, I ain't in the mood
To lend an ear in your time of need
And when you call, I think I will be busy

Any hour of the day – I may be there
Any hour of the night – I might be there
Any day of the week – I could be there
You can count on me
Twenty-three six
Twenty-three six
Twenty-three six

and if anyone thinks they can steal this idea and claim they wrote it first -- I played this song at the Bluebird Cafe in 2005, so don't even try it.

3. So Easy To Cry Play
So Easy To Cry
So easy to cry
Now that I’ve lost you
So easy to cry
Now that I know we’re through

Even though I know you’re gone, my tears keep flowing
And its hard to keep this broken heart from showing

So easy to cry
Now that I’ve lost you
So easy to cry
Now that I’m all alone

I should never be apart from you
But my tears won’t touch the heart of you
It’s so hard on me
But it’s so easy to cry over you


So easy to cry
Now that I’ve lost you
So easy to cry
Now that I know we’re through

Now and then I drop my guard and stop pretending
Then my teardrops flow like rivers never ending

So easy to cry
Now that I’ve lost you
So easy to cry
Now that I’m all alone

Though it tears me up to part from you
All my tears won’t touch the heart of you
It’s so hard on me
But it’s so easy to cry over you

West Nile Virus (live)
© 2004 L. Quick

I went to the forest
Walked thru the cypress
Tried to have a picnic but mosquitos tried to bite us
Now I got a fever and a throbbing sinus
Bit by a skeeter with the West Nile Virus

Went home to my walk-up
Put my feet up
Too tired to get up and pee or throw up
Writin' my will and countin' my days up
Praying at my funeral some friends will show up

Ah - eeee
Bite me

Those damn mosquitos
Are trying to screw us
Excedrin, Penecillin and aspirin are useless
Gonna end up cold in a state of detritus
Sicker than a dog with the West Nile Virus

Ah - eeee
Bite me

Don't go to the forest
Don't walk thru the cypress
Don't try to have a picnic where the skeeters tried to bite us
You'll end up cold in a state of detritus
Bit by a skeeter with the West Nile Virus

Ah - eeee
Bite me
