A Mother’s Day Ditty

What would Mother’s Day be without some gentle musical satire?

Glad you asked.

Here’s a (mercifully brief) live performance recording of a “non-autobiographical cautionary tale” I wrote* a couple of years ago to mark the occasion (click the title to listen, and a Quicktime audio file will open):

A Mother’s Day Song

I hope you take the message to heart, and — unlike our hero — do a little pre-Holiday prep for Mom.

Just added: For a slightly longer video version of this song on YouTube, click HERE.
