Not Quite Yet

This song is about not Tessa and I not quite being ready to have kids yet. It's share some musicial commonality with Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis. It's easily one of my most complex and dynamic songs to date. It should be noted that while this song is about a real fear of ours, the whole story is not true. Our parents are not pressuring us to have kids or come visit. It is a whole hell of a lot fun to play live though.

Not Quite Yet

(we sing the chorus together)
I love you and you love me
Together we'll make a family
But NOT, NOT Quite Yet.

I got a call from my dear old mom
She said when you making babies well it's been to long
Well NOT, NOT Quite Yet.

I got a call from my mother in law
She said when you coming to visit well you live to far
Well NOT, NOT Quite Yet.

I got a call from my dear old dad
He said it will be the best time you've ever had
Well NOT, NOT Quite Yet.

I love you and you love me
Together we'll make a family
But NOT, NOT Quite Yet.

(tessa sings) See I wanna beat on this big old drum (tessa plays a drum solo)
I wanna travel the world and have lots of fun
Yes we wanna live life fit fancy and free (but were still working on it)
We wanna shoot for the stars be all we can be

I love you and you love me
Together we'll make a family
But NOT, NOT Quite Yet.

So here's our cry and hears our prayer
one day we want kids but were just not there
O NOT, NOT Quite Yet.

Whoooaaa Whoooaaa
Whoooaaa Whoooaaa

Tessa starts screaming like a baby.

I keep screaming whooaa whooaa..

I love you and you love me
Together we'll make a family
But NOT, NOT Quite Yet.
