Story Behind The Song

I had the wonderful opportunity to write the lyrics for an album with Latin Crooner Raul Rodriguez Jr. It was one of the most amazing musical experiences I have ever encountered. The album, released in 2011 is called "idream: the color of love". It is available here: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/idream

(V1)
Her name is Miss-Demeanor
A dark-haired senorita
When I saw those wild eyes
I knew I had to meet her

(Pre-chorus)
She took my heart
Tied it to a stake
Set me aflame
That's no mistake

(Chorus)
It's a misdemeanor
What you've done to me
Ooo, Miss-Demeanor
When you pulled me from a deep, deep freeze
Ooo, Miss-Demeanor
Now I'm cooking
Mixed into Jambalaya
Miss-demeanor
Jamba, Jambalaya
Miss-demeanor
Jamba, Jambalaya

(Bridge)
Just take one bite
And Baby you'll know
I burn from the inside
My heart in tow

(V2)
Just cut up some peppers
Put in oregano
Pour on the hot sauce
I'm ready to go

(Pre-chorus)
She took my heart
Tied it to a stake
Set me aflame
That's no mistake

(Chorus)
It's a misdemeanor
What you've done to me
Ooo, Miss-Demeanor
When you pulled me from a deep, deep freeze
Ooo, Miss-Demeanor
Now I'm cooking
Mixed into Jambalaya
Miss-demeanor
Jamba, Jambalaya
Oh Miss-demeanor
Jamba, Jambalaya

You pull me from a deep, deep freeze girl

(Bridge)
Just take one bite
And Baby you'll know
I burn from the inside
With my heart in tow

Oh, look what have you done to me
Oooo Miss-Demeanor
You pulled me from a deep, deep freeze
Ooo Miss-Demeanor
Now I'm cooking mixed into Jambalaya

Miss-Demeanor
Oh, misdemeanor
Oh look what you've done to me
Now I'm cooking mixed into Jambalaya
Miss-Demeanor
Now I'm cooking mixed into Jambalaya
Ooooo, Miss Demeanor
