LYRICS

I just got fired from my job but I don't care because I know I'm better
Than working part-time at some trashy fast food restaurant with a hair net on my head
Three hours a week wasn't worth the time I put into cooking the mystery meat
After gas and insurance twenty bucks doesn't seem so sweet

But I've still got my music, I've still got my mind
My lungs are still breathing there's still so much time
I promise I'll make it, I won't lag behind
I know that I'm worthy, now where should I sign?

Give me one good reason why I should care about the way things are when I'm not even there
And give me motivation and oh I swear I'll get it right first try but the motives just not there, just not there

I realize that I'm not as productive as I would like to be
So I cut my hair with hopes that the outer changes would help fuel my mentality
One brick at a time I began to reconstruct the building that is my life
And after completion, my building didn't quite reach the sky

But I've still got my music, I've still got my mind
My lungs are still breathing there's still so much time
I promise I'll make it, I won't lag behind
I know that I'm worthy, now where should I sign?

Give me one good reason why I should care about the way things are when I'm not even there
And give me motivation and oh I swear I'll get it right first try but the motives just not there, just not there

And what little time I do have left is being spent
In my head thinking of different ways to help me vent
And when I stumble on a keeper every now and then
I use it to its fullest up until it's dead

Give me one good reason why I should care about the way things are when I'm not even there
And give me motivation and oh I swear I'll get it right first try but the motives just not there, just not there

Mystery Meat



WELSHLY ARMS combines their love of blues with rhythm and soul & good ol' rock and roll, to create a fresh throwback sound that represents their Midwestern roots. Comprised of Sam Getz (guitar/vocals), Brett Lindemann (keys), Jimmy Weaver (bass), Mikey Gould (drums) and Bri and Jon Bryant (background vocals), Cleveland-based WELSHLY ARMS pays homage to many of their collective musical influences such as Jimi Hendrix, The Temptations, Otis Redding, and Howlin Wolf.

The power of their live show has quickly built them a dedicated following in Ohio and has set the stage for things to tip into a national following in 2016 with performances confirmed on/at The Rock Boat, SXSW, Summerfest, Austin City Limits, Laurel Live, the San Diego County Fair and more. Within the last year alone, their music has been featured in a national TV/radio campaign for the Cleveland Indians, the promo for the new Netflix show Sense8 and the movie trailer for the new Quentin Tarantino movie, Hateful Eight.
