about

JB is a song I'll be plugging into a theatrical piece currently under construction. I conjured the character from some meandering conversations I've had outside my gigs recently. We had a helluva good time tracking this one!

lyrics

JB

You're always sorry once you have the win
You brag that all your records were plucked from the cut-out bin
To buy them retail that would be a sin
Not really sure what you do for work
It's got somethin' to do with somethin' you said
And of course it has it's perks
You're a pioneer in a field of firsts....

You say you've got some travel coming up
It's Amsterdam then Vietnam and if there's time enough...
It's on to Indonesia just to surf

You're a Jetsetter Bedwetter
You look like 90's Eddie Vedder
I don't want your bitcoin or your nickel knowledge, friend....
Just want this conversation to end

You say you're vegan and you're dairy free
Maybe so but this convo has made a meal out of me
Certainly has sapped my energy

You're a Jetsetter Bedwetter
In your Kurt Cobain sweater
I don't want your crypto coin or theories on mankind
Got some friends around here I'm supposed to find
Got some friends around here that I gotta find
Got some friends around here somewhere....
"Where are they? This guy's killing me...."

-CJC
