I wrote this song when I was around someone who was abusive, even tyrannical. And there wasn't anything I could do about it, then. I've just now got it recorded and happy I finally did.

lyrics

STEW IN YOUR OWN JUICE

There's a big Y up there in the road
there's a big Y up there in the road
and when we pass it go our separate ways
and we pass the big Y in the road

& I hope you'll think of me as good
and I hope I'll think of you as good

and not like this:

Stew in your own juice, I'm turning my back
your friendship abuses, if that can be fact
you live your surprises that do not surprise
you live with excuses, no fat off my back

Stew in your own juice, if that can be fun
so seldom to see you, now your race is won
your friendship abuses, you won't be outdone
it is no surprise how your empire is run

Many that hunger & waited & stood
& you let them come in, I hope it is good
to eat what you offer, the meat of the mind
what every snob orders the egotist finds

Stew in your own juice, I'm turning my back
your friendship abuses, if that can be fact
so seldom to see you, and that will be fine
relief on the planet is both yours & mine

Stew in your own juice, stew in your own juice
stew in your own juice.

Larry Goodell / 1991
