This is for my stepdaughter Ruby (she'll be horribly embarrassed that I've named her here, but that's my job). Also good for anyone who's just had a romantic letdown.

I've got a woman
A cheese and pickle woman
Keeps the crudités on the side
She is my lady
My finger-foodin' baby
Likes most hors d'oeuvres that aren't fried
When she's not with me
I can barely stand it
I need her right here by my side…

An instrumental track. When I hear the music, I envision that video that Blondie did in the 80s for Rapture, but with Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and the redshirts from Star Trek dancing instead.

When I first put this track together, it was for a celtic music band. I found out 1., celtic bands have a habit of imploding, and 2., the whistle tracks were frequently in the wrong key. So, I dusted this track off, dusted off an old Yamaha…
