Song information
I wrote this one back in 2015.. That's when I was going by the moniker' Lil' Hooligan which comes up in a lyric line.
Ironically, from banging all those instruments on the midi keyboard, one of my hands stiffened up and never recovered. Oh well, we suffer for our art- if I had to do it over again- I probably would have....Oh, 1 four letter word warning.

Lyrics
Upper Hand

© copyright 2015 jdorrance

1-  You run into me
I bump into you
 What are the chances? what the fuck;
I'm stuck
Instant Tom Foolery;
Insult to injury
You think you're special
 You're so not, so not
I'd thought you'd know by now
That I got mega past this;
I do not see the point in trying to rehash this!

Let go your upper hand;
Let go your upper hand
I'm punchin walls again 
 been had,
been had

2-

A  superficial win
Wipe up that sloppy grin;
Your friendly spin is
all an act, an act

What good is compromise?;
I won't be tranquilized;
No matter what you say
You lie, you lie

You with the 'let's do lunch'
Oh yea, for sure, y'betcha;
Sooner or later, lil' Hooli gonna drench cha

You had  the upper hand
You had the upper hand
I'm punching walls again
Been had, been had

Let go that upper hand
Let go that upper hand
I'm punchin walls and it's
Goodbye, goodbye

(music bridge to)
2:02
and once that jaw drops to the floor
I won't be there to pick up..

music 2:11-2:35

oohh
(music bridge)
2:55

Let go that upper hand
Let go that upper hand
I'm punchin walls it's a 
Goodbye, goodbye

Let go that upper hand
Let go that upper hand
I'm punchin walls it's a
Goodbye, goodbye

You with the 'let's do lunch'
Oh yea, for sure, y'betcha;
Sooner or later, lil' Hooli gonna drench cha

This is pretty cool. The vocals remind me a bit of Grace Slick, and the music like something Jefferson Airplane would have done but 21st century style.

Joyce:
Heck of a price to pay for a good tune!
Look on the bright side though... if some friend of yours is going on and on about an old sports injury, you can tell them about your old keyboard injury! That should stop 'em in their tracks! LOL...
Seriously though, it's tough to keep playing with an injury like that. Something I know from continual experience...
