Something We Can Figure Out

ROACH

Nothing to See (Acoustic)

LYRICS:
I'm sitting in the corner seat
Of a late-night lounge
Slow tap my feet
As the lady sings my favorite brand
Of smokey, smokey blues

She moves so very tenderly
Wearin' blue velvet dress
Swayin' jewelry
And I'm feeling too good for
Anyone to understand
How I feel inside these bones
Feel inside this skin

Gazin' straight, gold'n saxophone
I feel so full, but I'm all alone
How could anything feel so right
Rhythm's clean and tight

Don't need to run
Don't need to go
The best times are
When we-movin' slow
At least that's what-I-know

No one's around
To hear the sound
Of sweet jazzy fueled improvisation

Well ...
There's an old guy sittin' at the bar
Could be me in 30 years
Drinkin' too much scotch
Downs a couple of beers

I know it all too well
That one day could be me
But no troubles tonight
Sweet blues in the air
Lady wearing velvet
For us, no despair

We're going to be all right
Everybody needs a good tonight
To feel comfortable inside your bones
To feel good beneath the sun

Don't need to run
Don't need to go
The best times are
When we-movin' slow
At least that's what I know
That's just what I know

Rodney Anonymous and I connected when he e-mailed me after I gave him a shout out in a 2011 interview.  Since then, we became good friends, performing together and recording a verison of "Mr. Raven" for the "the Edgar All Poe EP".  We talk about tour stories, the loss of his friend Dave Blood, his favorite gothic and industrial bands and his solo and side projects.  Not only is Rodney a fantastic storyteller, he is energetic and hilarious.  A very cool second episode to conclude my Dead Milkmen series.
