TWILIGHT SONG

From the daylight oozes twilight
Out of twilight creeps the darkness
Everyone I've ever known 
Slowly drifts away from me
'Til I stand
A puzzled orphan
By the whisp'ring sea

Western sky explodes in silence
Far above the puny humans
Ocean clouds escape the sun
In dusky sky, in silence, run
'Til waves of clouds descend
Into the dark'ning eve

   Time flows on
   It changes everything
   It transforms all the world
   'Til nothing known still remains

Ever flowing through the darkness
Mystery ship of utter starkness
Everything I've ever seen
Slowly sails away from me 
And sinks, forever lost
Beneath the evening tide 

   Time flows on
   It changes everything
   It transforms all the world
   'Til nothing known still remains

HIGH TIDE

One fine day the wild sea
Will drown you and me 
Ever lost, eternally
Everybody drifts away
The high tide

You can laugh, you can cry
You can fight, we all die
As the briny waters rise
Everything drifts away
The high tide

Time washes down, down into the high tide
All drift away, carried by the high tide

     Sha la la la la la la la la the high tide
     Sha la la la they all wash away in the high tide
     Sha la la la we all drift away on the high tide

See the sun hit the waves
See the ocean, see our graves
To time we're enslaved
Everybody drifts away
The high tide


You can love, you can lie
You can fight, we all die
As the briny waters rise 
Everything drifts away
The high tide

Time washes down, down into the high tide
All drift away, carried by the high tide

    Sha la la la la la la la la the high tide
    Sha la la la they all wash away in the high tide
    Sha la la la we all drift away on the high tide

HIGH TIDE is from the stillborn album project recording sessions for SATAN KILLED ME TODAY, recorded 2004 and 2005 at Prairie Sun Recording Studios, Cotati, California

A Blind Man's Penis

I got high last night on LSD
My mind was beautiful, and I was free
Warts loved my nipples because they are pink
Vomit on me, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah

A blind man's penis is erect 
Because he is blind
It's erect because he's blind
A blind man's penis is erect 
Because he is blind
It's erect because he's blind

Let's make love under the stars
And watch for UFOs
And if little baby Martians come out of the UFOs
You can fuck them
Yeah yeah yeah

The zebra spilled its plastinia on Bemis
And the gelatin oozed electric marbles
Ramona's titties died in Hell
And the Nazis want to kill 
To kill everyone

A blind man's penis is erect 
Because he is blind
It's erect because he's blind
A blind man's penis is erect 
Because he is blind
It's erect because he's blind
It's erect because he's blind
It's erect because he's blind

NAZI ARMY MEN/TAINT THE PAINT WITH URINE

My attempt to write a catchy pop song with my typical "screw you" lyrics. Part of a 3 song demo recorded for free on spec at Red Zone Studios in Burbank, California, Sept.-Oct. 1989. Mark Langton on vocals, Kurt McGettrick on multiple electronic reeds overdub solo. I am unhappy with mix: Brass & reeds too far in background, synthesizer keyboard way too loud, vocals too upfront like a cheap home demo. I would love to remix it, but good luck to me tracking down the 2" tracking master reel tape, lost forever in the mists of time! Same with a couple of my early album master tapes. This is exactly why I obsessively archive absolutely everything I record now.

The clouds and the surf and the sand and the sun 
And the wind and the sky since time had begun 
And the time and the time since the cosmos was one 
All the time 
O the time 

We stood on the shore by the edge of the sea 
And our time was all ours and our time was all free 
Until sunlight surrendered we sought shelter 
By the lee 
All the time 
O the time 

The night and the stars and the moon and the clouds 
Envelope our sleep as we doze in our shrouds 
Til the kingdom of night yields to the plow 
All the time 
O the time

(Sung with affected English accent)

Well ya go putt-putt
In yah motah-cah
And ya think you're cool
But ya won't get fah

'Cause you're just a goddamn 
Mother-fuckin' asshole!

And you strut around 
Mistah Peanut-Brain
So self-absorbed
And ya feel no pain

'Cause you're just a goddamn 
Mother-fuckin' asshole!

     Man of Action
     You strut around
     You're a superstar!

     Man of Action
     Clinging to your money
     And your guns
Well ya go putt-putt
In yah motah-cah
And ya think you're cool
But ya won't get fah

'Cause you're just a goddamn 
Mother-fuckin' asshole!



Well you strut and preen 
Like a beauty queen
And your hair exudes
A greasy sheen

'Cause you're just a goddamn 
Mother-fuckin' asshole!
 
Well ya go putt-putt

You ignore the rules
'Cause you're number one
And you lie and cheat
Since the world begun

'Cause you're just a goddamn 
Mother-fuckin' asshole!

Mister Alpha Male
Mister Strutting Ass
A Smug Dipshit
Full of sass

'Cause you're just a goddamn

MAN OF ACTION

One Drop of Rain 
Copyright © 2015 John Trubee 
Published by ESCAPE FROM THE EVIL DWARVES, BMI 

One little droplet of rain 
Falls on the desert sand 
Two little droplets of rain 
Where once the arroyo ran 
Three little droplets of rain 
Nature weeping blood 
Four little droplets of rain 
Intimate a flood 

Oh--------- 
The sky is crying 
Oh--------- 
The old things die 
One drop of rain 
It changes all the world 


Five little droplets of rain 
Soon the dam will break 
Six little droplets of rain 
A mighty river make 
Seven little droplets of rain 
Sweep the debris away 
Eight little droplets of rain 
Evoke a bright new day 
Oh--------- 
The sky is crying 
Oh--------- 
The old things die 
One drop of rain 
It changes all the world
