Warm & Comfortable was co-written by Eric Meslinsky and Madeline Meslinsky (8 years old!) and will be the opening track on E. Mez's 6th Studio release, "A Dream of What I Could Be." Cover art by Leah Meslinsky.

LYRICS:
We were down by the ocean,
All the waves were in motion,
You were playing in the sand,
I asked you to take my hand,
And you said,
"Daddy, can we stay for just one more day?
Do we have to go?
I'm warm and comfortable."

Okay,
We can stay by the ocean,
Hold our time and emotion,
Build a castle in the sand,
Show the ocean where we stand,
And you said,
"Daddy, today is great,
Leaving will have to wait,
We don't have to go,
We're warm and comfortable."

Well I sure would like to be,
Comfortable and free,
So take my hand and we can stay all day,
The smell of ocean in our nose,
And water splashing on our toes,
So it goes,
The castle grows,
Our castle grows.

Warm & Comfortable

Rename Your Monster (Part V)

Theme Song written for and co-preformed by Eden, NY's own Crooked Lamppost Brewing Company! 

LYRICS (sing along!):
Come on in and have a beer,
Time slips away when you're in here,
Sing nice and loud for the neighbors to hear.

The Lamppost is lit!
My friends and I sit,
Life is so easy when you work hard at it,
Share this toast when the Lamppost is lit.

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!
Everyone throw back your beers,
How do you measure your days and your years?
Together, we say.
We're together today,
We'll measure away...

Pull the tap and shave the foam,
No street lights,
You let the moon guide you home,
East and West meet where the Buffalo roam.

The Lamppost is lit!
My friends and I sit,
Life is so easy when you work hard at it,
Share this toast when the Lamppost is lit...

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!
Everyone throw back your beers,
How do you measure your days and your years?
Together, we say,
We're together today.

If you wanna sing along with me,
Either Mazur with the karaoke,
Or live music collectively,
We're together, alive, and free,
If you wanna play along with me,
Keep your ring finger on the D,
Ladies and Gentlemen: your attention please...
Crooked Lamppost, sing along with me...

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!
Everybody throw back your beers,
How do you measure your days and your years?
Together we say (together we say!),
We're together today (together today!).

Come on in and have a beer,
Time slips away when you're in here,
Can you bring me a beer?
Can you bring me another beer?

E. Mez- Crooked Lamppost Theme Song (feat. CLPBC)

An original Christmas song written by 8 year old Western New Yorker!

LYRICS:
It's Christmas Eve,
Santa's coming down the chimney tonight,
We're gonna see,
Presents underneath the Christmas tree lights.
We're gonna have some yummy hot coco,
We're gonna see the snow falling to the ground below.

It's Christmas Eve,
We're gonna have a snowball fight,
We'll decorate the tree with ornaments and Christmas tree lights,
We're gonna have some yummy hot coco,
We're gonna see the snow falling to the ground below.

At least that's what I do,
You know it's true,
A very merry Christmas to you,
A very merry Christmas...
A very merry Christmas...
A very merry Christmas to you.

Christmas Eve

LYRICS

[Roger Waters/Thom Yorke Banter]

While I'm here,
I'll tell you to know what you know and allow that to change over time.

While I'm here,
I'll tell you to open your mind and be good without payment in kind.

And when I'm gone,
You'll have this song.

While I'm here,
I'll tell you to feel all emotion but let none shift your motion through time.

While I'm here,
I'll tell you that I love you dearly and nothing...nothing can change my mind!

And when I'm gone,
You'll have this song.

[Kurt Vonnegut Banter]

When you're here,
Make others smile,
Take nothing for granted in your shared time.

When you're here,
Laugh and dream and love and think feely and be the sublime.

This is our song,
Could you pass this along,
'Cause we all hold on,
Until we all get along.

[Thom Yorke Banter]

You'll Have This Song (Love, Dad: Part II)

ZE.M.EZ is E. Mez and Zack Burgess.

"Welcome to the Nutshell" is a medley cover of: 
Alice in Chains- Nutshell, and 
Pink Floyd- Welcome to the Machine

LYRICS:
Welcome my son,
Welcome to the machine.
Where have you been?
It's alright,
We know where you've been.

We chase misprinted lies,
We face the path of time,
And yet I fight...
And yet I fight this battle all alone,
No one to cry to,
No place to call home.

My gift of self is raped,
My privacy is raked,
And yet I find...
And yet I find repeating in my head,
If I can't be my own,
I'd feel better dead.

Welcome my son,
Welcome to the machine.
Where have you been?
It's alright, 
We know where you've been.

Blended into the medley are songs originally written by Alice in Chains and Pink Floyd.

Arrangement and production by Eric Meslinsky and Zack Burgess. 

Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Eric Meslinsky in b theory Studios, 2021.
