Bruto viento

A Wisconsin anthem...sort of....
Are you addicted to cheese curds? Crave whitefish livers and a cold Leinie's? Spend hours sitting on a bucket, ice fishing at twenty below zero, but release all the fish cause you'd rather have a burger?
Another single from the upcoming Penelope's Thrill album, "Twilight on Tunnel Road," due out on April 26, 2021. 
Main guitars on this are a Vintage Modified Strat playing the fast-picking melodic riff and my '66 Guild Starfire XII filling things out and playing the lead. They are joined by my Gretsch 5622T and '78 Guild S-60.

“Clockwork Clouds”
Words & Music by Timothy Walsh

Nothing I say gives you a clue.
You just want me singing the blues.
But I don’t know how to choose—
too many things jostling my mind like leaves in the wind.

And this corn looks so fine, but I’m losing my mind,
living out here in the countryside
with these cows and this corn—
never forlorn—some say it’s paradise
and I guess that’s maybe true but….

CHORUS: Take me through the skies
above the world we know,
looking at these clockwork clouds from so far below.
Take me past the stars, somewhere far away.
Looking at these clockwork clouds for so many days.

Tell me again, why am I here?
Looking at clouds in the stratosphere.
I don’t feel so alone cause I’ve got this here phone,
the Packers on the tele, a sixpack on ice.

When I’m walking the fields calculating the yields,
the clouds are floating by like cottony shields.
There’s manure and milk, soybeans and corn silk,
Bears fans down in Janesville but I don’t mix with that ilk, so….

CHORUS

Wisconsin’s my home so I’m never alone.
There’s cows and curds and cheese and birds
and whitetails in the woods.
And there’s wolves and black bears,
our meatpackers shares,
the green of spring and gold of fall really tell it all.

We harvest ginseng roots, trim Christmas tree shoots,
grow fine leaf tobacco for your big cheroots.
Red tail on the wing, it just makes you sing.
Turkey vultures circling like angels in the sky.

And there’s cows and there’s corn, whitefish livers and porn,
Northwoods hair salons where no one lives but the trees.
And there’s trout streams and hills, Lake Superior’s thrills—
ice fishing in winter, sitting on a bucket in the wind.

how i longed for silence
how i longed for more of less
all these truths we hold dear
old beliefs we forget

silence doesn't matter now
silence knows no care
silence doesn't matter now
silence will forgive and forget

it comes in waves
in slow waves
familiar as is silence

Rainbows end

Never See The Cliff Until I Fall                  c. 2021 M. A. Manetz

V1
When the cuckoo calls they say it's gonna rain.
The whistle marks the comin' of the train.
But when I woke up this mornin',
My love was gone without a warnin',
And it hit me just like a hurricane.

V2
When the mornin' sun turns the sky to red,
Sailors know storm clouds lie ahead,
I never looked to the the horizon,
Should have come as no surprise when,    
She left me in this cold and lonely bed.

Chorus
I never see the writing on the wall.
Only see what I wanna see, when I see at all.
Like Wiley Coyote when ol' Roadrunner calls,
Never see the cliff until I fall.

V3
They say that love will set you free.
Free isn't what I wanna be.
Love is blind, fools rush in, 
I'll get back up, start again, 
Find a love who loves as blind as me.

Chorus

Tag
Like Wiley Coyote givin' it his all,
Never see the cliff until I fall.

Never See The Cliff Until I Fall

I write simple songs, mostly in a country/folk vein. All recordings posted here were done at home with minimal production on my little Tascam Pocket Studio. No great commercial intent here, just a love for the writing process and the hope that one day I will pen one really good one.  Thanks for taking the time to listen!
