In The Cold Winter Rain

There were sirens wailing
Fire engines spraying
And a crowd had gathered
Though it was 3 in the morning

CHORUS
The corner hot dog stand burned down
Corner hot dog stand burned down
The corner hot dog stand burned down
Corner hot dog stand bur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-ur-urned

The owners were these Mexicans
Who wouldn't pay for protection
From the local gang-bangers
Or from the local police
The thing went up like nothing
It was a wooden bungalow
And the people stood and stared
Some prayed and shook their heads

CHORUS

Now there's a new hot dog stand
Run by these North Shore types
As part of their chain
It's kept sparkling clean
And no one misses the old stand
The family moved back to Mexico
But the blinding neon signs
Make me long for the days before

CHORUS

Burn out the old
Bring in the new
Burn out the old
Bring in the new
Burn out the old
Bring in the new
Burn out the old
Bring in the new
Bring in the new!

Song recipe: Take some Kinks, add Mott the Hopple, stir in Captain Beefheart, and sprinkle  Flaming Lips weirdness to taste.

Lyrics:
We're freaks at large
We're loose in the general population
Fighting foes of imagination 
We're coming to your town
We're fighting the foes of imagination
Daydreamers 
Truth screamers
Yeah, I'm running with the freaks at large
Freaks at large
And we're coming to your town

You see us in our car
Outside  the bar
In a museum 
Just being who we are
Don't look us in the eye
We know that you live a lie
We're sanity's gatekeepers
Unfortunately, we're late sleepers  

Daydreamers 
Truth screamers
Yeah, I'm running with the freaks at large
Coming to your town
Fighting foes of imagination
Freaks at large
This is an All-Points Bulletin
Watch out for the freaks at large
Freaks at large

Freaks At Large!

Avalon     (Ft Lizzie Taypen and Telefan)  With video

This is my first release of 2021 and its a song about missing things we used to be able to do in life.
I have a longing to see live performance again and miss the clubs and venues and of course travel.
We are in danger of entering a cultural apocalypse devoid of live music venues and festivals and tours if this pandemic lasts a long time we must somehow adapt as theres no time to lie down and fade 
away otherwise the music and good times will fade away as just a memory

No Time To Lie down

Hey Everybody!
We hope you all are doing well and you enjoy our new song!

Lyrics:
I catch a whiff of sweet aroma from the restaurant across the street
As I tiptoe atop these cobblestones, hoping to get something to eat
Maybe I forgot to tell you I loved you? Or maybe it‘s time for a change?
I’m left with these unanswered questions that I wish would just go away.

Could this be a love song? One that you will never hear
Or am I lonely, and these thoughts are just me being insincere?
‘Cause I just smiled at the waitress, who reminded me of you
So I drop some coins on the counter, tiptoe back across these cobblestones
As far away from you as I can be. 

I don‘t really want to see you anymore
Close my eyes for a moment trying to forget
But there you are in my memories
Where you’ll always be.

I Go Outside With Death In Sight

I Finally Fucking See The Light Well
Fuck you
You Said I had a small Dick
But It's Average 
Check it up on Google I sure Did!
