This is the fourteenth of my proposed 262 song-a-weeks. Wish me luck! And thanks for listening. If you'd like to see the video, it's here: youtu.be/HibESehRXnU
You know that armor you been carrying 'round
That suit of armor you wear all over town
That suit of armor has been weighing you down
more and more with each passing year
the slings and arrows are beginning to strafe,
and that suit of armor sure ain't keeping you safe.
that suit of armor's really starting to chafe
and it doesn't let you hide from your fear
and your fears will grow
and your tears will flow
and the years will show
that it's time to break out and move on, 'cause you know
yeah, that thing,
yeah, that thing you're doing,
yeah, that thing that you've been doing,
baby, that's not gonna work.
you built your armor out of playing pretend
your suit of armor was a means to an end
and now that armor is no longer your friend
when you're trying real hard to be real.
that suit of armor doesn't help you perform.
that suit of armor ain't much good in a storm
that suit of armor sure ain't keeping you warm
and it sure ain't helping you heal.
you can conceal your wounds,
and try not to feel your wounds,
but to heal your wounds
you gotta give 'em some air, let 'em out in the sun
yeah, that thing,
yeah, that thing you're doing,
yeah, that thing that you've been doing,
baby, that's not gonna work.
you're not a knight in shining armor and you never were
you're not a damsel in distress, of that you can be sure
and you don't need that clown suit, you don't need that bustiér
and you don't need to look like Cary Grant or Doris Day
to get into this party, you don't need a special costume like
Calamity Jane or Old Farmer John
You are worthy as you are,
you are worthy as you are,
you are worthy as you are,
you don't need that armor on.
yeah, that thing,
yeah, that thing you're doing,
yeah, that thing that you've been doing,
baby, that's not gonna work.

Jerry's got this laconic, kinda flat affect singing style which only makes his lyrics land even more. Great acoustic guitar playing, thoughtful lyrics from a generous and kind worldview. Recommended. Brendan Milburn

Everything these guys do is fabulous. Barista Girl is the most-requested track on my iPod during car trips. This Sucks is just wonderful (albeit better live). Ewan
