Preamp

(álbum: Jimi Sharp: Man Of Mystery - 2007)

I am a preamp
Plug the cords right in my head
I've got headphones
Stuck right into my shirt

I'm a guitar amp
I bite the cord between my teeth
My voice is the speaker
And my eyes tell how loud I am
I've got microphone fingers
I don't care about phantom power
And I know the levels
Because I'm a preamp for everything

I needed something
To make sure you could hear me
Where was I going
Did the sound just disappear?

You were recording
You kept me on a tape
(You) played it softly
Inside your headphones

I am a beauty
I am the voice that sounds sweet
Playing softly
Putting you to sleep

I wanted to keep you
So I made a tape
Now I listen
To your voice singing to me

I am a beauty
I am the voice that sounds sweet
Playing softly
Putting you to sleep

I am a preamp
And you're plugged into my heart

I am a beauty
And I'm plugged into my heart
