Hi Everyone! Well, ok... at the bash, I'm sure a lot of you observed
Steve and I writing little notes back and forth, right?
Well, that was the start of us co-writing together.
Here's our 2nd one... OH BOY! Thank you for listening!
Leave Him Be
(c)2011 Steve Oxford & Diane Gee
Verse 1
There's a bird pecking on my window
shouting profanities
Why he's bent out of shape, I don't know
maybe it's the bird he thinks he sees
CHORUS
I wish I could tell him, he sees his own reflection
but I wouldn't want to highlight any imperfection
He's dreaming about whooping that butt
so I'll leave him be, and won't wake him up
Verse 2
There's a man yelling at his neighbor
saying his yard is weedy
I don't know what he's so upset for
they need some kind of treaty
CHORUS (above)
Verse 3
There's a man in front of a mirror
Tears streaming down his cheeks
Why he cries is beyond me
He doesn't see the man I see
BRIDGE
We're none of us perfect, not even me
but if I don't knock you, will ya let me be?
CHORUS (above)
