lyrics

Help is a word you say when you’re surrounded
Or when you fall over the side of a boat
Like a red fox being hounded
Hung out and cut off with the moat

That’s why I always write with a poison pen
In case I need to go in for the kill
I write the same words over and over again
Be still, my enemies, be still

That night we drove through Tijuana
I sang all my songs to you
Bowing down to a Madonna
You said to your own self be true

That’s why I always write with a poison pen
In case I need to go in for the kill
I write the same words over and over again
Be still, my enemies, be still

about

Suzy Callahan Maryland

“Suzy Callahan imbues “Maybe” with more mystery and complex emotions and offbeat observations than entire albums by many artists…Fans of Edith Frost will definitely find much to love in Callahan’s catalog.” - Queen City Sounds and Arts Blog.
