Marc, I love Little Feat and will tell anyone that Sgt. Pepper doesn't have the greatest album cover, Sailing Shoes does.

Lowell George was a great lyricist, composer and slide guitarist. Maybe your song with Shaun is based on a funky groove (nothing wrong with that), but the lyric is kinda weak. At least on paper. It needs a good line or two
In place of the cliches. But again, Feat songs are often based on groove and the lyric just needs prosody. Good luck with it.
