This song is a nod to Heidi's favorite rock band, The Rolling Stones. Art Cohen’s rhythm and Steve Lessick’s percussion instruments really add to the “Stonesy” flavor of the song.

Lyrics

Arms Akimbo (Feb 3, 2024)

Hands down, we got a system in place
Hands down, We got a system in place
It ain’t always pretty
But mostly it’s sane
You never done nothin’ that we can’t overcome
I never done nothin’ more than just a little bit wrong

Arms akimbo, looks like I’m in for it now
Arms akimbo, looks like I’m in for it now
It ain’t always quiet
But it’s it’s peaceful somehow
You never done nothin’ that we can’t overcome
I never done nothin’ more than just a little bit wrong

Bodies moving so slightly toward center
Bodies moving slightly toward center
There are always a few moments
When we wind up together

Nothing dangerous happening
Nothing dangerous at all
Just some lethal ingredients
Tamped down with a little salt

Knees a Bucklin, feels like I might fall
Knees a Bucklin, feels like I might fall
You’re always there to catch me
I don’t have to crawl
You never done nothin’ that we can’t overcome
And I never done nothin’ more than just a little bit wrong

Feet a shuffling slowly upstairs
Feet a shuffling slowly upstairs
It could take 20 minutes
But we always get there
