The core members of the band that is Watson (Gary Pinkstaff, Bobby Rock and Watson Davis) first played together after a meeting at a high school talent show. They became fast friends, playing in several bands together and in various combinations until the early '80s. This CD, Psychics Are Standing By, brings them back together in 1999 and proves that once you've got chemistry, mathematics and biology really aren't so bad. The key to this CD is the songs; songs that combine message with wit. In this CD, Watson tries to merge extraordinary music with socially conscious lyrics in an attempt to answer the age old question: can great musicians write songs that don't suck?

Story behind the song
This song was the 49th song written in the RMMS 2001 50 Song Challenge. I wrote it about 4 hours before the deadline. This is the second draft.
Lyrics
Love’s got a bad reputation Of turning men into slaves They learn how to set the table To sleep on the couch when they misbehave Women are the Enemy Who want to end our bachelorhood I’ve heard some horror stories And I wonder if you would Make an example of me Make an example of me String me up, baby For the whole world to see Make an example of me An example of me Of just how nasty True love can be Make an example of me Married men live the longest Cursing every single day Staring into space reminiscing Of the freedom they gave away Make an example of me Make an example of me String me up, baby For the whole world to see Make an example of me An example of me Of just how nasty True love can be Make an example of me But I gotta watch football all day Sunday And Monday night, too I’ll be betting on most of those games So I can buy presents for you Really. Trust me on this one. Make an example of me Make an example of me String me up, baby For the world to see Make an example of me An example of me Of just how nasty True love can be Make an example of me
