I've written a movie in the form of a song, a play in the form of a song, here's a CARTOON in the form of a song . . .

One day while walking to a recording session on West 20th Street, I passed by 3 businesses and thought, "What if . . ." and the song just tumbled out.
"Life Happens Fast On West 20th Street"

And there's more! When the song was over my brain worked overtime, so here's what happened to everyone after the song stopped:

I really am a customer of Mike's Tech Shop -- if you are in need of a good Mac shop, these guys are aces. Steve Doyle, who plays bass on this song is also a good customer and told me about them. Here's the credits on the song. I play guitar and vocal and the rest are:
Brian Bauers: harmony vocals, keyboard, producer
Ashley Madison Bauers: harmony vocals
Steve Doyle: bass
Daniel Glass: percussion
Phil Klum: mastering
BTW, there's one line in the song I should attribute to Ring Lardner: the line about giving her a look you could pour on a pancake. That's from his book, "You Know Me, Al" -- love me some Ring Lardner.
Enjoy!
