"Extra Chair"

Even though I looked like I belonged in a hair metal band in the mid-1980s, I was busy writing songs like this one, which is about as far from hair metal as a song can get.

Extra Chair

Come in

I've got a little extra coffee

I'm sorry

I'm out of wine

Would you rather have a cup of tea?

It's hard

To keep the cupboards full

So busy

Working overtime

Would you like to sit and talk to me?

I have an extra chair for you

Picked it up at a yard sale

Hoping someday it'd be used

Sit down

I've got a little extra time

Before the sun comes out

Would you like to get a little sleep?

Goodnight

I've got a little extra room

Here on the bed for you

Would you like to make love with me?
