"Fortified for frozen winters  Cupboards full of franks and beans It could be a long long while  Good thing I’ve got lots of patience,  Writing paper, reams and reams Some for pen, and some to feed the fire" <-- absolute brilliance. Really great lyrics in this one.

The best thing I have listened to since this day begun

■概要
冒険に出かけたしろちゃんは、最初に海に行きました。
しろちゃんは、船舶免許を取得したばかりの男のボートにこっそりと忍び込みます。
しかし、沖に行くと突然海が荒れ始め、ボートが転覆してしまいます。
それで、しろちゃんは海に投げ出されてしまいます。
(船舶免許を取得したばかりの男は何とか救助隊に助けられました)

しろちゃんはボートの中にあった潜水服を着ましたが、海の底へと沈んで行ってしまいました。

そこには恐ろしい海の魔物、ダイオウイカがいて、しろちゃんに襲い掛かります！
ダイオウイカは強烈なビームを一分間に180回出すことができます！
しろちゃんとダイオウイカの、高速な戦いが始まる・・しろちゃんの夏はまだ終わらない！

・・・
そんな感じの曲です。インスト曲です。ボーカル無しです。

■Overview
Shiro-chang  first went to the sea as the starting point for her adventure.
Shiro-chang  sneaks onto the boat of a man who has just gotten his boat license.
However, when they go offshore, the sea suddenly becomes rough and the boat capsizes.
As a result, Shiro-chang  is thrown into the sea.
(The man, who had just obtained his boat license, managed to be saved by a rescue team.)

Shiro-chang  put on a diving suit that was in the boat, but it sank to the bottom of the sea.

There is a terrifying sea monster, a giant squid, and it attacks Shiro-chang !
Giant squid can emit intense beams 180 times per minute!
A high-speed battle between Shiro-chang  and the giant squid begins... Shiro-chang 's summer isn't over yet!

・・・
It's a song like that. It's an instrumental song. No vocals.

Giant Squid

Tired Of Feeling Tired

Soundbite City

Slaughter
‘thoughts and prayers’
urban death young blood
‘our hearts go out to you’
fragmentation human 
destruction annihilation
chorus of crows 
and that’s how it goes ….

Why is it happening?
lets get to the cause -
because I can’t stand the encores of the crows’ caws

Song Of Nature

Aside from musical satisfaction and $$$ - the motivations for artists to keeping going can be an addiction to the love from the audience.

SCREAMING AND THROWING UNDIES

Take my time with plug-ins
Connection satisfaction
Waving arms like a summons
Pointy introductions
And soon I’m ridin’ minor sevenths
Endorphins in my canal
I’m like a godly presence
As music funks it’s way around

But the pessimist inside – says shoot me your lovin’ arrows
Cause the deficit is – oh - the needing of something so shallow
Gimme screaming and throwing undies (love me love me love me)
Gimme screaming and throwing undies

Career or labour of love
Try and define it
Eyeing up those at the front
Is anyone buyin’ it
I’m phrasing out the words I wrote
Looking for misty eyes 
Reaching for a soulful note
Into clover wrap me tight 

Nature’s opium ride
Musicality
Bathing up here in spotlight
Dopamine alchemy                             Yeah I’m riding . . .

SCREAMING and THROWING UNDIES

Even more bum notes than usual.

I’ll just wait here in the purple pounding surf
Bob around, maybe catch a ride on a dolphin
I’ll just sit here in this boiling pit of lava
When you come I’ll be hangin' with the gremlins

I’ve got nothing else to do but to wait around for you
You’re the best thing

I’ll just stand here in this angry swarm of bees
Wave my arms, build a cabin from the stingers
I’ll just dig a hole and throw myself down in it
Dig me up, I’ll be rotten and I’ll need your forgiveness

I’ve got nothing else to do standing in the street for you
You’re the best thing

Fortified for frozen winters 
Cupboards full of franks and beans
It could be a long long while 
Good thing I’ve got lots of patience, 
Writing paper, reams and reams
Some for pen, and some to feed the fire

I’ll just wait here in my pretty pink fedora
Keep it blocked so it won’t betray a wrinkle
I’ll just hang around and paint my twitchy fingers
When you come I’ll be wearing all my twinkles
I’ve got nothing left to do than to sparkle on for you
You’re the best thing 
You’re the best thing
