she called me a loser fag (ft. mgchi)

Original song by Dred Fouglas.

Lyrics:

Drifting down West 18th Street, Chicago
Oh, man, it's got me feelin' low, low, low
A sad-eyed bum's beggin' for change in the rain, rain, rain
Slurring the blues; the cheap city booze churning his brain
And it's low, low, low,
this Chicago Sorrow

Bitterly I watch the fuss of beeping cars,
they look like sewer rats trapped in jars
What a sorry way of life, one that money runs
We're all wasting away in concrete prisons
Yes, it's low, low, low, 
this Chicago Sorrow
And I can't shake it off,
can't shake it off, no,
the Chicago sorrow

Chicago Sorrow

Margin of Error

(Whatever Happened To) Reason

There is blood on my hands
and I can’t tell you why
Was it me who pulled the trigger 
Who’s left to testify
(Repeat)

Whatever happened to reason 
Whatever happened to reason
It’s time to say goodbye 

Did my eyes get wet
I came to pacify 
Trouble is my teacher 
It won’t pass me by
Trouble is my preacher 
It won’t pass you by

(Refrain)

(Whatever Happened To) Reason

Remaster of a track from a few years ago. 
This was really an excuse to play some Hendrix riffs. I tried to fit as many Hendrix musical and lyrical references as I could within the silly story. It probably only makes sense if you are a big fan like me.
 It is also my tribute to an amazing, visionary musician who has remained an influence  all my life.

The Hendrix Switch

Well I was walking through the crowds
With a pint of dark and mild
When a little man came up to me
Said he was a voodoo chile

His skin was green
And his eyes were blue
He said follow me 
I didn’t know what to do

The palms of his hands were hairy
I thought… better be wary

The crowd parted in his path 
As he made his way through the throng 
I followed close behind him, thinking
I bet this looks wrong

Floating just above the ground
He led me to the restroom
I went inside and found him there
Sitting serenely on a mushroom

My God.. the palms of his hands were hairy

He asked me who is the greatest one of all
I said Hendrix the lord and master
He answered with a smile
And passed me the note that led to my disaster


It said, “Hey-ho
Would you like to play like Jimi in a day”
I said hey-ho 
You better believe me right now

In the note was a diagram
Showing, beneath the scratchpate on a strat
Beneath the wires and cables and the pickups and the pots,
A small switch

It said “hey hoe
That’s the Jimi switch right now”
It said “hey hoe
You better take this omen down
Drink it down with your brown “

A purple haze came into my eyes

Well I ran straight home 
And took my strat from the rack
I took off the scratchplate 
And removed the plate from the back

And there before me, with an eery glow,
Was the Hendrix switch.
I thought.. I must have a go….

A purple haze came into my eyes
I didn’t know if  I was dazed or right
It got me blowing
Blowing my nose
Is it tomorrow or are the curtains closed

So a threw the switch in wild delight
My fingers flew like birds in flight
Was I happy
Or in misery
Whatever it was that switch had put a spell on me

So I played for hours
I played all ways
Through long, hot, summer nights,
I dreamed away rainy days

But when I tried to stop 
My hand would not let go
My brain said yes
But my fingers said no

Before I knew it my Strat rose up
And was behind my head in one smooth slinky jump

Get down I asked it, get down I cried
All to no avail as it slipped down my backside

I played with a pick and I played with my teeth
Thank god I was wearing thick clothes with no access beneath

My fingers were bloodied, my shoulders were bruised
My knuckles were red and my fingernails oozed


I needed to stop, I needed to rest
When I noticed the note laying there on a chest

At the foot of the page, in bright purple ink
Was a warning I’d missed in my failiure to think 

“Beware you lazy dumb son of a bitch
 When you once put it on, there is no off switch”

So I’ll play that guitar to the ending of days
When all light and all time and all things fade away

And if you are tempted to take a short cut
All you desperately need is a kick up the butt

Remember
“Beware, you lazy dumb son of a bitch
When you once put it on, there is no off switch”

I Don't Know Me Like You Do

Schnee (Snow) - Rock Flexible
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Ein Blick nach draußen, es fällt Schnee
Ich fühl’ mich kalt und so schwer
We’re frozen in time and frozen in place
Kann mich kaum erinnern, alles ist so leer.

Tag um Tag, alles fühlt sich gleich an.
In jeder Nacht kaum noch Schlaf.
… don’t know where to go, where to find you …
Seh’ dich mehr und mehr verblassen, Nacht für Nacht.
—
Hey, Hello, Komm,
Leave the shelter
Der Sturm ist fast vorüber schon
Die Schatten werden schneller kürzer
And the sun will always shine on us … 
—
Folge den Spuren im frischen Weiß
Bin ich wohl doch nicht ganz allein so früh hier
I know I know they told you many lies, again
Hatte keine Chance mehr, den Fehler zu finden.
… don’t know where to go, where to find you …
Seh’ Dich mehr und mehr verblassen, Tag für Tag.
—
Hey, Hello, Komm,
Leave the shelter
Der Sturm ist fast vorüber schon
Die Schatten werden schneller kürzer
And the sun will always shine on us …
