The Attic

Originally was basically all performed "live", but overdubbed in layers kinda thing, with no drums so using the cajon. No midi either so back to the old microphone pressed up to the keyboard speaker. 
All due to moving house and lack of internet. However I have since remixed it and added drums. Fancy.

Anyway here's the lyrics.

Oh darling, let's be frank.
We've got some credit, with the bank.
We've got a few options, they don't have.
But when it's laid out on the table, we'll probably find we've been had. 

Oh honey, let's get real.
We're going nowhere, we can't feel.
We've kept our secrets, kept the deal.
But to make it any further we're gonna have to beg, borrow or steal. 

Oh, come on baby, let's be frank.
We'll take some credit out of the bank 

Oh darling, let us be frank.
The ghostly faces, in the cloudbank.
Are asking questions, are begging thanks.
What you saved up for tomorrow's gonna come back and hit you in the flank. 

Oh honey, please be true.
I see no other, for me but you.
I see no future, without you at home.
I'm speaking as frankly, as people do when they're left alone. 

Oh, come on honey let's be true,
cos nothing comes right out of the blue.

Intruder

Warhound

As the crowd rushes the stage,
all the cobwebs blow away,
and the memories of your fears, 
flooding back.
As the see-saw rises out,
from the sand pit in the ground,
you see obstacles between you and the floor. 

What comes up always comes down, always a friend who hides his frown,
you can never see him coming till it's late.
Oh, the ground approaches quick,
and you're not ready for it,
as you're bouncing and you're landing on your face. 

Up and downs.
This is life?
Can you take it in your stride.
Ins and out.
Side to side.
Can't seem to get the balance right. 

As the blood pours down your face.
You can see they've raised the stakes,
and there's nothing left to do but have a crack.
Though kept down you raised me up,
in this world of buttercups,
to and fro-ing as the balance works us out. 
The see saw crashes down,
when one side seeks the ground,
yes it's easy to forget about who you owe.
But to play games on your own,
is a fools errand you know.
I'll lift you back up if you keep it safe for me. 

Up and downs.
This is life?
Can you take it in your stride.
Ins and out.
Side to side.
Can't seem to get the balance right. 

Oh, the nerves you feel for days,
that will just not go away.
Or the thoughts that keep lying awake at night.
Or, a day out on the sand,
and your feet on salty land.
Are just different edges, same old butchers knife.

Up and downs.
This is life?
Can you take it in your stride.
Ins and out.
Side to side.
Can't seem to get the balance right. 


See-Saw

"Lost In Time"

David J. Kemper is a composer & producer from Chicago, Illinois, city of big shoulders, (former) hog butcher to the world, and home of Nelson Algren, Carl Sandburg, John Dillinger and Al Capone.  It has been speculated (by Mr. Kemper) that the gritty, rough and tumble energy of the streets from whence he hails has given extra bite and backbone to the sounds that he comes up with.  It is a theory, anyway.  Don’t think.  Just listen.  

The music featured here is but a modest selection from the ever-growing DJK repertoire, solo releases (Wet Work), as well as his "other" band/project/whatever, Brahms' 3rd Racket.
