"Three Out of Three" Comedic folk-blues, baritone lead — ~100 bpm, acoustic + light drums, playful [Verse 1] Monitor one went dark on me, monitor two wasn't far behind Sittin' there with just the one, tryna keep my peace of mind Called the IT fella, said "I can fit you in" "When?" I said, he said "thirty days," I said "well ain't that a sin" [Pre-Chorus] Drive was actin' funny, Windows had a bone to pick Mouse just sat there frozen, wouldn't even click I said "that's it, decision time" — pulled the trigger, made the call Wasn't waitin' thirty days to fix a thing at all [Chorus] Three out of three, baby, that's the score Wasn't like this a couple weeks before Ordered this and that, played around till it was right Now the whole rig's humming and the studio's alive tonight Three out of three [Verse 2] New monitor showed up, plugged it in with shaking hands Reinstalled the software, followed all the plans Mouse was dead the whole time — battery, nothing more I laughed so hard I nearly fell right off the floor [Pre-Chorus] Should've checked it Tuesday, could've saved myself the fuss But that's the way it goes with me, always makin' a fuss Windows finally settled, drive came back online Mixing console showed up too, and man, that thing is fine [Chorus] Three out of three, baby, that's the score Wasn't like this a couple weeks before Ordered this and that, played around till it was right Now the whole rig's humming and the studio's alive tonight Three out of three [Verse 3] Console's got more buttons than a brand new Lincoln dash Gonna need YouTube University just to make a splash Professor's some guy in his basement, talkin' fast But by the time I'm done I'll know that mixer front to back [Bridge] Didn't need the IT guy, didn't need his thirty days Just some stubbornness and coffee and a couple sleepless days Bones of the place stayed the same But everything runnin' through it's got a brand new name [Final Chorus] Three out of three, baby, that's the score Console's worth its weight, and then some more Ordered this and that, played around till it was right Now the whole rig's humming and the studio's alive tonight Three out of three, three out of three [Property Of TENBREATHSUN ©]
