I need to go down there. Cause I don't like how I look in my underwear Why can't losing weight be as easy as loosing hair. * I tell myself that for lunch I'll have a side salad and I'll skip the dressing but the more that I think about it it starts to feel depressing * I chew on my celery stick And I wish I was eating a French fry And I sip from my bottle of water but I'd rather be drinking a Mai Tai * Every day when I put on my clothes my pants feel a little bit tighter And every time I step on the scale I realize I'm not getting lighter * There's a peloton in my basement I need to go down there * If God said to Adam if you eat that fruit You won't look good in your birthday suit Would he have taken a bite? Based on my experience I don't think so. If Moses led his people to the promised land and they found a place where desert was banned would they have stayed there? Based on my experience I don't think so. * There's a Peloton in my basement. I need to go down there. Cause I don't like how I look in my underwear Why can't losing weight be as easy as loosing hair. There's a Peloton in my basement. I need to go down there. Cause I don't like how I look in my underwear Why can't losing weight be as easy as loosing hair. * Recorded with Logic Pro X on a M1 pro laptop using a mix of izotope on the band in a box tracks and Antares Auto tune plug ins on the vocals used ez-drummer to create the drum tracks. *** With the exception of the vocals, all the tracks on this song are band in a box tracks: RealTracks in song: ~1547:Bass, Electric, CountrySwing Sw 110 RealTracks in style: ~528:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Hank Sw 120 RealTracks in song: 2919:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm CountryFolkSlowSwingMike Sw 085 RealTracks in song: ~2639:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm CountryBentNoteJohn Sw 110 RealTracks in song: 3126:Mandola, Rhythm AmericanaFolkShuffleSyncAndy Sw 120

Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Fun song - I enjoyed it a lot! -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

This is one of the best first posts here ever! OK, a random thought; Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it? 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
