Story behind the song
Sitting on couch with our Ashcat after practice one night, B2 played the main guitar riff and the lyrics just came, I sat and sang along and wrote some stuff down, then we finished it in a day or two. About a year later I was trying to put together some bluesy stuff and took these same lyrics, with a different approach and came up with 'Wanna Be', which we performed regularly along with a couple other originals whenever we played out.
Lyrics
Wanna Be 2 Yeah I wanna be your lover I wanna be your friend I wanna be your imbecile I just wanna give you baby the bends Yeah I wanna know and I wanna go about you And I wanna see and I wanna bleed inside you I'll hold you close and I'll pack your nose if you want me to Then I'll pull the needle from my arm for you and I'll shoot you yes I will Because I wanna be your brother And I might like to live like your father And hell I may wanna sleep with your sister But I sure don't wanna be that little brown dog I'll wipe my feet and I'll act real sweet for your mother Yeah I'll choke the cat and I'll kick the dog you won't bother I'll force my strange will on you like no other And when I'm thru with you you will never never need another lover And now I'm gonna be your lover I'm gonna be your friend I'm gonna be your imbecile Aw and I'm just gonna give you baby the bends Well I'm gonna know and I'm gonna go about you And I'm gonna see and I'm gonna bleed inside you I'll hold you close and I'll pack your nose if you want me to Then I'll pull the needle from my heart for you and I'll shoot you yes I will Because I'm gonna be your lover
