Knock a door run

Wrote this one about the moments your brain moves faster than your body. You’re still moving forward, just not gracefully.

Falling up the Stairs

The Bad Side of the World

[intro]

[instrumental]

[verse]
This is the bad side of the world
Where you never can grow old
When you cannot pull your weight
You are left out in the cold

You learn to fear the stick
For a moment hesitate
You will feel a nice sharp kick
and they'll take away your plate

You better keep on moving quick
and you can't ever get sick
Can't miss a day and not show up
If you  do, your time is up

your time is up

[chorus]
You need to make your masters happy
They want service, make it snappy
You need to do it with a smile
And keep their toilets clean
You only have one purpose
To service the machine

[instrumental]

[verse]


[chorus]
You need to make your masters happy
They want service, make it snappy
You need to do it with a smile
And keep their toilets clean
You only have one purpose
To service the machine

[2:15][instrumental]

[verse]
This is the bad side of the world
The streets ain't lined with gold
The pavement's always wet
And you always feel the cold

You can't afford to pay the rent
In one day your money's spent
You beg for food and one more hit
Just one more until you quit

The police are on their way
They plan to take you all away
They'll want to lock you up
If you run, your time is up

your time is up

[chorus]
You need to make your masters happy
They want service, make it snappy
You need to do it with a smile
And keep their toilets clean
You only have one purpose
To service the machine

[outro]

Arrangement:
Kick off with raw, fuzz-laden guitars and heavily distorted power chords, backed by dynamic, punchy drums and a gritty, driving bassline. Verse sections lean louder with strong clear, spoken-style vocals and minimalist instrumentation, exploding to full, aggressive intensity in the chorus. End with a noisy outro, layers of feedback and loose, unpolished playing.

Arctic Monkeys - Only You Know

Arctic Monkeys - Is This It Live

El gallo canta y un blues lo acompaña, son tiempos difíciles y en este momento soy feliz. Podría volar si quisiera, extender mis alas y mirar hacia abajo sin temor. En la oscuridad soy feliz, todo es perfecto, no vez nada, sólo te callas y escuchas, no te mueves y comienzas a sentir todo a tu alrededor, poder ilimitado sobre tus sentidos. La gente duerme y yo escribo mientras la canción termina.

You don’t know, you don’t know how I feel.
I know you’re out there having a good time…

In so many ways you can get the blues.
Now you got nothing… Nothing to lose.
