Audience Of One

(album: Equal Strain On All Parts - 2023)

One hand clapping
Five toes tapping
A neighbor napping 'cross the hall
Second guess
This song is a mess
Make a little progress
Even if it's small

All I know to tell
Is do it till you get it right

Playing to an audience of one
Better than an audience of none
Playing to an audience somewhere
Better than a bunch of folks not there
You could still have a lot of fun
Giving it all you've got
For an audience of one

It was a big night
Marquee lights
I seem to set impossible sights
Medium posts drew a curious ghost
Is she a fan or a miffed housewife?

All I know to tell
Is do it till you get it right

Playing to an audience of one
Better than an audience of none
Playing to an audience somewhere
No other job compares
You could still have a lot of fun
Giving it all you've got
For an audience of one

Uno
Un

Back at home I'm never alone
Hold the phone without fail
No trepidation
My motivation
Is a standing ovation from a wagging tail

All I know to tell ya
Is we finally got it right

Playing to an audience of one
Better than an audience of none
Playing to an audience somewhere
Better than a bunch of folks not there
You could still have a lot of fun
Giving it all you've got
For an audience of one
