Song Description
Rules Broken: time signature (this one is in 11/4 but again, in true Caesar Bach fashion many instruments and vocals play a 4/4 groove on top of this 11/4 melody); in the end the whole thing slows down to a complete stop and then goes backwards - talk about breaking rules; additionally each verse is a different length and has a different melody (label A&R men would have a fit with this one).
Topic: Everyone has a vice or habit or Achilles Heel. This song is sung to you by your problem, whatever it is (drugs, drinking, fear, ?etc.) By the lyric you are charged to do something about your problem while being scoffed at by your problem for not having the strength to face it.

Lyrics
I Am Your Problem
Words and Music by Otto D?Agnolo

Verse
You don?t really know me
You think you do but I?m here telling you
It ain?t true
There?s no way around
You?re gonna learn it the hard way.
Chorus
I am your problem
I am your sweet, sweet problem.
Verse
You don?t have what it?s gonna take to face me
You can play, but there?s no way
Around me.
Chorus
I am your problem
I am your sweet, sweet problem.
Verse
You know you?re looking over your shoulder
You keep running and hiding
Behind all these silly dreams and plans and schemes and plans and
All your brilliant ideas are bullshit
You?ve got to own up to it now.
You think help is gonna help?
You got no any idea
You got no idea what?s in front of you.
This could kill you.
Chorus
I am your problem
I am your sweet, sweet problem.
