Home Haircut
Ideas are good to bounce around
We don’t rush the ones we’ve had
She ain’t just easy on the eyes,
She helps filter out the bad
And then when it turns out caddywampus
Like we’ve known since the second verse
She’d probably tell me “I told you so”
While she keeps me from making it worse

The clippers will make it easy
Like a scissor with training wheels
The mirror image will guide me
This ain’t gonna be a big deal

Home haircut, while my baby isn’t home
That angled comb is just for your ear, 
Not the entire side of your dome
And I can’t even find the sharpie
Even if that’s a good idea
If you hadn’t been gone so long
I wouldn’t be bleeding from my ear

Home haircut, while my baby isn’t home
What the heck is that lever for? 
I already attached the comb!
My left arm feels like my right arm
In the mirror it don’t move right
I may not have much hair left
At least I didn’t stab my eye! 

Something’s a little uneven
I’ll just trim some more from there
A nick, a wobble, a first aid kit
And the carpet’s all covered in hair
ooOOH

Home haircut, while my baby isn’t home
That angled comb is just for your ear, 
Not the entire side of your dome
I’ve got a meeting in the morning
And the barber shops are closed
Shoulda done this first thing today
Tell me again, when you coming home

Lyrics:

You're charging your life with senseless ignorance
And searching for reasons to fill emptiness
You are the star, you are the loser
You are bad news, she is the accuser

Hey, hey, hey, mayday, mayday
Say, say, say, it's my way, my may

Bring it up, your secret revealed
Spilling the words, feeling the thrill
Who is confessing, who is obsessing
She is denying and he is just lying
Again and again you cover up blame
Sipping champagne appalling fame

All you can hear is the sound of fear
A broken spell, last yell to tell
You are the star, you are the loser
You are bad news, she is the accuser

Hey, hey, hey, mayday, mayday
Say, say, say, it's my way, my may

Bring it up, your secret revealed
Spilling the words, feeling the thrill
Who is confessing, who is obsessing
She is denying and he is just lying
Again and again you cover up blame
Sipping champagne appalling fame

Hey, hey, hey, mayday, mayday
Say, say, say, it's my way, my may

We are the wave, sound's smashing again
For is the season of doomed heroes
You are the star, you are the loser
You are bad news, she is the accuser

Hey, hey, hey, mayday, mayday
Say, say, say, it's my way, my may
Hey, hey, hey, mayday, mayday
Say, say, say, it's my way, my may

Bring it up, your secret revealed
Spilling the words, feeling the thrill
Who is confessing, who is obsessing
She is denying and he is just lying
Again and again you cover up blame
Sipping champagne appalling fame

there is no way out
there is no way out
there is no way out
there is no way out
there is no way out
there is no way out
there is no way out
come on and spill it out

We all have a draufspringer in our lives. He is the one who is there, always there, always happy, in all weather, always kind… and oppresses us with his benevolence.

On a tous un draufspringer dans notre vie. C’est celui qui est là, toujours là, qui est toujours content, par tous les temps, toujours gentil… et qui nous oppresse avec sa bienveillance.

Wir alle haben einen Draufspringer in unserem Leben. Einen, der immer da ist, immer zufrieden, bei jedem Wetter, immer nett... und uns mit seinem Wohlwollen bedrückt.

Draufspringer "JohnSAS Remix/AbsolutUnsa" (Release 28/3/25)

My new song and video "Another Chance To Live Again" are about the profound feelings of loss that so many people in Ukraine have experienced since they were attacked by war criminals starting in 2014.   
I wanted to express and encapsulate the feelings not only of individual people but of an entire country and society so I used religious and spiritual references in the music and lyrics.  
I traveled to Ukraine to film the video in some of the locations of the worst atrocities in Irpin and Bucha.  The video begins at a destroyed cultural center that was once the go-to place for plays, concerts and other happy community events. Out back was the Irpin soccer stadium where teams and children played and practiced.  It is now pockmarked with dozens of artillery holes and thousands of shrapnel wounds. The other building in the video was filled with hundreds of apartments where people lived before it was attacked with missiles. The destroyed bridge was initially used by Ukrainians trying to escape the enemy bombings until the enemy massacred hundreds of civilians driving across it.  The Ukrainian Armed Forces blew it up so the enemy could not advance with tanks and heavy equipment. The church scarred with shrapnel is located right next to the bridge.  
We filmed with the permission of the Armed Forces while air raid sirens were blaring and attack drones and missiles were being shot down overhead.  It was all very emotional for me because I knew that families with their children died right where I was filming.  I talked to many people who lost loved ones and told them that I was there to tell their stories to the world. 
Please like, comment, share and support Ukraine.  
After I returned from Ukraine, I launched a foundation to help those injured and to raise funds for reconstruction.   Please donate if you can. www.KelsieKimberlinFoundation.org

Autumn Dream

Host

"Tea with Debussy & Pärt in Casablanca" is a musical dream that bloomed during my vacation in Havana, Cuba. Inspired by classical masterpieces from Arvo Pärt and Claude Debussy, I envisioned an imaginary encounter with these esteemed composers in Casablanca, over Moroccan tea.

Commissioned by a dear friend and talented violist Vincent Delorme, this piece is not an imitation of their styles but rather a heartfelt conversation between us. It embodies the essence of typical conversations in Morocco, where we all speak at the same time, meandering from topic to topic, and experiencing numerous changes of atmospheres, tempi, textures, and fragments of thematic material.

It begins with minimalist touches, a nod to Pärt's recent works, where the piano introduces serene arpeggios, intertwining with heartfelt viola melodies. As we delve into our tea time, I incorporate some of Debussy's harmonic vocabulary. 

Throughout our harmonious dialogue, the piece mirrors the dynamic nature of conversations in Morocco. We experience moments of collective excitement, where the music swells with vibrant textures and lively tempi, as if everyone is speaking at once. Themes and motifs emerge and intertwine, mirroring the meandering nature of our discussion as we navigate from one topic to another.

As our musical journey unfolds, our collaboration celebrates cultural fusion, weaving together Pärt, Debussy, and my artistic zest. Each voice contributes to the narrative, inviting moments of wonder and contemplation through our shared inspirations.
