This is one of 6 recordings I made in 1980 or thereabout. This was an analog stereo recording that unfortunately had degraded quite a bit over 30 years. These recordings represent my first experience with a drum machine, compressors, and synthesizers. There are multiple technical issues with these recordings however I was quite surprised at the quality of the songs themselves. I think my basic songwriting skills are very evident in these songs even though the recordings do not do them justice. I plan to rerecord all of these songs in the coming months. I thought it would be fun to share these tracks anyway. Give them a try, you may like them just the way they are.
Thanks for listening.

Go and Get It
By Ted Lehman © Copyright 1980-2011

You want something
What's holding you back
you won't get nothing
when you sit on your crack
it must mean a lot to you
the way that you talk
but you can't go get it
if you can't even walk

don't complain to me
if you don't even want to try
did anyone ever tell you
to walk before you fly

get a house in the country
or a DVR
dress yourself funky
get a brand new car
you can be a plumber
or a computer wiz
live just like a rock star
get into show biz

Go and get it
Don't leave me alone
cause all your complaining
won't get yourself home

Don't be afraid now
go and make a change
the worst that could happen
is to start over again
give it your best shot
stop flapping your teeth
it's all there for the picking
just put your hand out and reach
