7 Deadly Sinz - Envy

Perhaps no one owes a greater debt to Chap Roz than 70s sensation Paul Williams. Fans of that recording artist are aware he slipped away into relative obscurity after a promising turn on Jim Henson's The Muppet Show. With the recording of his underground single, Bring Back Paul Williams, Chap Roz not only formed what would go on to be one of the most important British bands of his time, he brought back Paul Williams!

If you can find Paul Williams side of the story (and I can't - Google be damned!), rumor has it that he didn't feel that he had been away, hence not needing to be brought back.

Sid was able to mediate a solution, and in further tribute (and reportedly to avoid a potential lawsuit) Chap teamed with Paul Williams for this anthem about, well, being the bigger man. The duo recorded their parts separately, and performed the track together live only once, on Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve 2001 with Paul live from Los Angeles (pictured) and Chap live from Liverpool.

To this date the two men have never met.

From 7 Deadly Sinz - ENVY:

Be the bigger man

Chap:
In every man’s life comes a time
When you have to stand or step aside
If you can’t look the other man in the eye
Maybe it’s time

Paul:
When your back is up against the wall
And you’re staring into the belly of the beast
Is a good time to remember
The teachings from the east

Duet:
Be,
Oh Be,
Why not Be the bigger man.
Bigger man

Chap:
No need to be ashamed
No need to feel blamed
If you walk away with pride
You can always say the other guy lied

Paul:
Rise to the occasion
Overlook your shortcomings
Climb the moral step-ladder
Cause it’s time

Duet:
Be,
Oh Be,
Why not Be the bigger man.
Bigger man
