Baby, Would You Be My Engineer?

Grew out of my frustration at having to sing, play all the instruments, and engineer my own recording…

Baby, Would You Be My Engineer?:

Baby, would you be my engineer
and keep my headphones sounding clear?
I desperately need someone to help me out in here.
Well my studio is ready to explode
and I’ll never get this number on the radio,
that much is clear…
babe, if you won’t be my engineer.

Baby, would you be my architect
and make sure the arrangement’s correct?
I certainly need someone to make it all connect.
this piano track is taking all night
and I’ll never ever get that bassline right
I should suspect…
babe, if you won’t be my architect.

Baby, would you be my engineer
and keep my headphones on your ears?
I desperately need someone to proofread what I hear.
We’ll sit alone and drink in the dark
then we’ll go and play the demo on a boombox in the park.

Baby, if you’ll be my engineer…
