It is too late it is too early.
A good friend of mine told me
Is it too late is it too early
Hoping she would give me the key
Cause it's not too late it's not too early
My brother Jay contributed a lot to the final session for Building a Hole. He played electric guitar on "I Lied." He also wrote "Lampshade Girl," the only song on an album of mine which I didn’t have a bit of writing credit. I enjoyed having him in the studio with me that day. We had fun. "Lampshade Girl" came out great. I always liked his version better, but I wanted to give my own interpretation a shot.
The grass we sat on
Told me the same things the waves did
Crash on the beach
It said Son I got something to tell you
So keep this close at hand
Why should I even worry about you
My Lampshade Girl
That love is patient love is kind
And love is worth waiting for
In my heart somewhere on my mind
I had toconcur
All the trains running round
Why should I even worry about you
My Lampshade Girl
To her hand heart and happiness
Humiliation took over me
Maybe in a year or two
I guess I'll have to break ground...
And concur all over again
I guess I'll go ahead and worry about you
My Lampshade Girl
