Nothing To Say

I heard a politician say he wants to bring us back to 1952.
But I'd rather living here living in the present with you.
1952 I'd rather be living here in the present with you.

Father comes home every evening. Looking so debonair. He puts I Love Lucy on the TV set and lies around in his underwear. Empty beer cans strewn about. It’s the antithesis of Better Homes and Gardens. He lights up another cigarette and inhales the hydrocarbons. And he scratches his belly and he says to himself life is good I should feel blessed. But there’s a twinge of pain in his stomach and lately work has got him stressed.

I’m glad I wasn’t around in 1952. I’d rather living here in the present with you. The old people reminisce about all the things they miss.  I’m glad I wasn’t around in 1952.  
Mother has her hair up in curlers. As she cleans up the household mess. And when her husband comes home tonight she’ll greet him in a pretty dress. She reads good housekeeping diligently looking for the latest advice. But sometimes she feels like a character who’s living in a fool’s paradise. And  she’s striving for an ideal that is impossible to achieve. And there’s an itch that she keeps on scratching but there’s no way to relieve.

Nice houses in the suburbs.  Bomb shelters in every backyard.  People driving their American built gas guzzlers down the boulevard.

Junior wears his coonskin cap and he likes to shoot his BB gun. He used to play cowboys and Indians but now fighting communists is more fun. At school the kids practice duck and cover so they can survive the H bomb. In ten more years if he survives he’ll be fighting off in Vietnam. And sometimes he has nightmares where he dreams about the start of world war three. Cause lately it feels like he might be living through the end of history.

I’m glad I wasn’t around in 1952. I’d rather living here in the present with you. It may have been good for some. But not for everyone. I’m glad I wasn’t around in 1952.

1952

I sat and played the
Piano so free
The keys felt sticky
The pedal was tricky
I'm stuck to the chair
I stood up quickly
Could this be the end?
I gasped and
Started again.

Inside My Head

Cut me loose

Country Album Version. Vocals and music generated by AI but I 100% write my own songs, handle all composition, production and post production for my music.  By around the end of October-November of this year(2025) I will be getting the equipment I need to record my own quality vocals and then voice clone them and have AI train my vocal clone.  If that is successful my plan is to voice swap my cloned vocals with the AI vocals on some or all of my tracks listed as 'Album Version'

Child of Rape(Country Album Version)

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious).  
I do not use AI to create my songs. 
Recently I have had the urge to pick up my guitars (Taylor 114ce and Fender Squire) and I have been trying to use more guitar in my songs.  
My go to .vst plug ins are  EZkeys 2, EZ Bass and  EZ drummer 3) and my DAW is Logic Pro 11. 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud. 
All songs are originals and copyrighted.
