Zeroing in?

This lyric is one of my favorites from the song, "Picture On My Wall," off of my album, Self Portrait of Me.  Now, before I turn everyone on to this lyric, let me explain the title of the album, Self Portrait of Me.   It's a redundancy, because a self-portrait is, by definition, a portrait of the artist rendering it.  Thus, the redundancy, Self Portrait of Me, is a kind of joke.  Now, onto the lyric from that great Richy Vegas composition, 'Picture on My Wall:" "Cindy did some runway/ and she had an attitude/ she used to serve me coffee/ and to me she was quite rude/ I'd had enough of her/ and with her I didn't start/ she had a thousand dollar body/ wrapped around a ten cent heart."  

Now the chorus, or refrain, if one prefers, refers to the calendars I habitually buy that feature female models in bathing suits, lingerie, or some such items of clothing that only serve to somehow enhance their comely physical charms.  The refrain, which follows the verse above, goes like this, "Oh your stand-ins in my world/ don't serve you well at all/ and I bet I'm better off/ when you're a picture on my wall."

Now, one might say, "Richy Vegas, that song speaks to me.  It seems to cut to an essential truth in life.  Namely, that models are basically a bunch of assholes, when one comes right down to it.  Where, oh where, Richy Vegas, may I listen to this song?"  Well, funny you should mention that, because one may listen  to this and other songs on my bandcamp.com page.  One may access my bandcamp.com page from this very website.  Just click on the heading "music" right under the picture of "Monica" on this very page.  Go on, big boy, just move your eyes up a few inches from these words and click on the music link.  Once there, one will find the album cover art for that great Richy Vegas album, Self Portrait of Me, as well as a link that reads "Buy it here on band camp."  See, on bandcamp.com, one may typically listen to a complete album up to THREE whole times before they decide that they want to PURCHASE it on bandcamp.com.  Can you dig it?
