Hi,
Here's a song about compulsive shopping and the severe form that is GAS, Guitar Acquisition Syndrome, condition I have lived with most of my adult life.
Written on a song writing course as an exercise: use a simple title for the chorus and have a bridge or middle eight which took you somewhere very different and then resolved back to the main song.
There's probably not much more to add, other than the prophecy did come true and I picked up another Sigma 12 string on eBay, including hardcase for £100, which you can here on the recording.
Thanks in anticipation for listening to it and your comments.
Neil

Temptation all around
Enticing you with their bargains
I’ve got to beat the crowd
I can’t help myself
I can’t help myself
I can’t help myself
Anymore
My fingers are ready at the keyboard
I can feel the draw
I know that I don’t need another
But lets see if I’ll score
I can’t help myself
I can’t help myself
I can’t help myself
Anymore
In the land of shopping channels
Buying more and more, each and everyday
Way beyond Maslow’s laws
“I’m popping to the store”
I can’t help myself
I can’t help myself
I can’t help myself
Anymore
