Do the Social Distance

Robert James

The drums in the chorus are in 4/4 time. Everything else is in 7/4 time. Polyrhythms, people! Welcome to the 20th century! (sorry… that’s kind of a music school joke. Even I’m not sure I get it… just like most 20th century classical music. Am I right, or am I right?)

Lyrics are getting tough in this the the third straight album in a month project. I almost like these. Can you guess what the guy in the COVID-19 induced social distance was writing about?

Rhythm guitar is SG lead is Les Paul. Both used different sides of the D&M Drive and both used the Bassbreaker 15.

Verse 1 & 3:
come on now
give it a chance
lets try this
new circumstance
come with me
lets do this
shelter in place goodness

verse 2:
I’m hearing
you shout out loud
I’m seeking
the lost and found
I’m trying
to tell you
this is our new normal

Chorus:
Lets all
do the
social
distance
