You said "don't come over"
I told you I'd be right there
you said you just wanna watch TV
well, ask me if I care
'cause if that's what you think
if that's what you believe
if that's what you feel
well, I've got another trick up my sleeve
All I wanna do is talk
but you'd much rather fuck
and you could get those changed around
if you'd just press your luck
'cause that's what I think
and that's what I believe
that's how I feel
and these are the memories I retrieve
It's a difference of opinion
there ain't no right or wrong
you think I have lost my mind
well that's why I wrote this song
It's a difference of opinion
there ain't no yes or no
I see you on the inside
while I'm out playing in the snow
I think I can hold it
but you really gotta go pee
and if you think you got it bad, baby
don't come crying to me!
if that's what we think
and if that's what we believe
if that's how we feel
then there's no reason to be naive
It's a difference of opinion
I am this, you are that
cuz even if we agree to disagree
we always end up on our backs
It's a difference of opinion
so let's just let it go
say goodbye and don't ask why
'cause hell, baby - I don't know!

Background:
Lyrics: This one is basically a tongue-in-cheek rendition of the end of a relationship, when you realize it just won't work. There isn't a whole lot of animosity, it's just fizzling. When you're kinda holding on to the physical part of the whole thing, but the emotional part is crumbling. This is loosely based on a real circumstances. I wrote this like She Looked At Me, with words and a melody, but no music - intending on figuring out some chords later on.
Music: It took awhile, but I finally put some music to it, slowly but surely. It didn't take too long once I got started, and it's not exactly brilliant, but it's cool and it's done. I tried to keep it simple, and it is. Essentially it's the same progression for each section, just in a different key or rhythm. It's a short song, only around 2:45 long, or longer depending on my mood. ;-)
