about

Perfectly Comfortable (The Authentic Song)
My music career really started on the day I wrote this song. Sarah the Musician Square Peg trying gamely to fit into the Corporate Banking Round Hole. Pretending to be someone else ended up becoming a valuable lesson in misery. I was fired left the job, finished the song with Mannie (my brother-from-another-mother) afterwards and this is the version we wrote all those years ago.

lyrics

It's a quiet sunny afternoon
And there isn't exactly much to do
I just sit and smile and contemplate my navel
'Cause I'm just breathing out

I see these city people
They spend their lives living by the clock
No time to fly, they're always rushing by
'Cause they don't know how to relax

And I am happy and free
Perfectly comfortable in my skin
I just watch and wait and try to contemplate
My existence in this big old world

I see these funny people
Trying to pretend to be someone they're not
A mask of deception, a mirror illusion
'Cause they don't know how to be real

I see these days slip away
And I take them one step at a time
You only have one chance to get on up and dance
'Cause you never know when you'll have it again
