Songwriter specializing in modern rock, country, easy listening and pop music.
I'm a songwriter with a wide variety of influences. I am currently seeking a publisher for one or more of my songs. Though I focus on commercially viable Country/Rock and Adult Contemporary, my wide range of infuences ensures that on any given CD of my work, there's something for all tastes in music.

Lyrics
“Perfect” Capers Simmons VERSE I White picket fences and blue tract houses— Mythologies long since torn down We’re all disillusioned, we’ve seen the pollution And nothing is holy now PRECHORUS I But everyone believes in a dream A promise, a vision, or a blind prophecy And each of us has his own His own perfect picture of his own perfect home Yeah, wouldn’t it be... CHORUS I Perfect... to have a world where you belong? But nothing here is Perfect... and all of these dreams come out wrong. VERSE II Mom’s in the kitchen, Dad’s out back, working And Junior’s mowing the lawn Daughter’s impatient for the call from her boyfriend To say he’ll take her out to her prom PRECHORUS II But that’s not the real world at all Mom and Dad divorced more than three years ago Junior sells weed to his friends And Daughter’s at the clinic ‘cause she’s pregnant again But wouldn’t it be... ~ CHORUS I ~ BRIDGE Ooh... There’s a thousand tales in the telling No... None of them has a happy ending But wouldn’t it be... ~ CHORUS I ~ CHORUS II Perfect... if just once we could get things right? But nothing here is Perfect... not tonight or the rest of our lives will ever be Perfect... but that doesn’t mean we don’t try to be ever so Perfect... like the light or the look in your eyes. Oh, wouldn’t it be... ~ CHORUS I ~
