please listen..... http://www.soundclick.com/bands/0/calvinstewartI May Not Be The One For You
© words and music by C. Stewart ( Oct 7, 2017 )
I may not be the one for you x 2
I've been around the block or two
I may not be the one for you
I brush my teeth in a gas station sink
Sniff my armpits, check for stink
Then I disappear from the camera flash
Long enough to take your cash
I may not be the one for you x 2
I've been around the block or two
I may not be the one for you
CHORUS......
I was raised in the city by a one eyed mother
And it was in the back of her head
My one eyed mothers middle name was Fred
I was raised in the city by a one eyed mother
And it was in the back of her head
And now my one eyed mother is dead
But I've still got that picture of her eyeball
Like a baby bird, trapped in the attic
My wings are broke and I'm an addict
And I'm always on the edge of crying
Cause just like Fred I know I'm dying
I may not be the one for you x 2
I've been around the block or two
I may not be the one for you
REPEAT CHORUS......
Like a baby bird, trapped in the attic
My wings are broke and I'm an addict
And I'm always on the edge of crying
Cause just like Fred I know I'm dying
I may not be the one for you x2
I've been around the block or two
I may not be the one for you

Does that mean it's over between you and me? Guess I shouldn't take it personally... Have you ever heard the song, "Don't Marry me " from "the King and I". Your song has better reasons for a non-relationship... I liked the rhythms and musical presentation. The rear facing eye was a creative touch. Best of luck ....Pete

Calvin,
This is weird, odd, unique, strange, creepy, and other things I can't quite put a finger on. But still I really, really like it. What does that say about me?
Regards,
Deej

Calvin this is so very unique, and as others say..creepy....lol but thats way cool too.
I can`t think of the word I want to use for you in this and other songs of yours..I think "specialist would work, you are certainly that. really very cool stuff Lane

Hi Calvin, Had me smiling and laughing all the way through..the only thing I could think of to add would be a little melodic quote of the late great Curtis Mayfield's "Freddie's Dead." You know what they say..in the land of the blind mothers, the one-eyed mother is queen..  In the video in my head with this, after you sing "I may not be the one for you" I see your cartoon avatar doing a little tap dance synced up with that clip clop sound in your recording. Love it. 5 stars. Original, imaginative, fun, and wacky.. Mike

Calvin.
I hope your mother wasn't blind in one eye.
If not, she at least knew where she came from.
Another clever and amusing piece. :-)

Hey Calvin,
What a "sweet" song..........this will be a popular wedding song IMO. Hey, I had one idea/sug for ya. Given the vibe, I thought it might be cool to on the 2nd lines to say to effect.....or conversely....."but I might be the one for you." Paradoxical & Calvinistic?
Cool timing of sound effects as usual.
