LYRICS
Late nights desperation
One drunk night had a revelation
Money comes quick from the end of a handgun
Done real smooth wouldn’t have to run
He had an alibi
He had a car to take
It was a one stop one rob big mistake
Little did he know that the pets were ruthless
Put matters in their own paws
Stop the doofus
Shop-keep running had a lot to do
He had to clean the tanks
He had to feed the zoo
Fishes and spiders and ferrets and parrots
The turtles and lizards, the rabbits and carrots
Cats and dogs and everything in between
He even ran the cash box as he mopped and cleaned
He enjoyed the job
But it was plain to see
He wasn’t ready for a pet shop robbery
Tuesday’s dead and the shop was clean
Playing fetch with a pup down aisle fifteen
Door swung open with a deadpan stare
Put the cash in the bag
Threw a gun in the air
Whoa, can’t we just talk about this
Shots popped off and he barely missed
Animals rattled the cages the door flew ajar
Stampede through the store looked quite bizarre

First, air strike parrots on the ready
Cockatiels second wave flight path steady
Beaks to the dome and one to the eye
Fell to his knees successful fly by
Next, time for the kitties on the front line
Hiss with the claws to the back of his thighs
Fang to the neck with the grace of a feline
Next were the gerbils to the toes with a b-line

Chomp
Munchin’ on all the little piggies
Man jumped up did a funny little jiggy
Fell face first to a frightful scene
Fangs of a pup who was looking mean
God boy
Play fetch with his hands and face
He robbed the wrong little store
Held up the wrong place
It was money he was looking for
Instead he got a fight
He was looking for the cash
But instead he got the bite

Snakes, crawlin’ up the pants so quickly
Screams flew out and the man felt sickly
Slither back down to the feet and squeeze
Hope your toes fall off while you cough and wheeze

Turtles show up, move slow but they came
Clamp straight to the hair
This was no war game
This was war
On the floor, in aisle five
Then the rats showed up and they did a nose dive
Out the cage to the face
With the poise and the grace
Of a rodent
And every moment the man wished
That his shot hadn’t missed
Screaming out in agony
Wasn’t ready for a pet shop robbery

Anchor Bay, California based electronic music artist and producer Michal Menert draws breath from the world that surrounds him, transmuting daily inspiration into music that is singularly his own. 

“A synthesis of past, present, and future, elegantly woven together by the hands of Michal Menert.” – Huffington Post on Space Jazz

A youth steeped in a broad swath of both Eastern and Western musical traditions gives Menert a deep palate from which to draw; his passion for original analog sounds coupled with a vast knowledge of music history has given him a unique ability to pull from the global creative canon with ease. A multi-instrumentalist, he incorporates live guitar and keys into his final production for a full sound and rich feel. 

As Menert co-produced the chart topping Pretty Lights album Taking Up Your Precious Time it was natural that he was the first artist to join Pretty Lights Music. His debut solo album Dreaming of a Bigger Life was released in 2010, followed by 2012’s mega-LP Even If It Isn’t Right. In winter of 2015 Menert released the highly anticipated Space Jazz, followed by fall 2015’s debut release by his band Michal Menert & the Pretty Fantastics, 1. His next release is expected in winter 2018.

In the live realm, Menert supplied sound design for Dead & Co tours in 2016 and 2017. Additionally, he supplied sound design on Mickey Hart’s Planet Drum rerelease in Fall 2016. Building on that relationship, Menert in both a featured performer and co-producer on Hart’s next studio record, slated for release in the fall of 2017.

Menert’s reputation as a live performer continues to grow, as he brings his music to fans nationwide via both his septet, Michal Menert & The Pretty Fantastics, and his 22-piece all-star ensemble the Michal Menert Big Band. His collaborations have led to the formation of myriad ongoing side projects including Manic Menert (with Manic Focus), Half Color (with Paul Basic) & Club Scouts (with Mux Mool). Over the years Menert has shared the stage with a number of musical luminaries including STS9, Bassnectar, Umphrey’s McGee, and more, and played legendary venues including the Fillmore Auditorium in Denver, The Gorge in Washington and the Red Rocks Amphitheatre (twice in 2016 alone.)

Committed to a community driven approach to collaborative creativity, Menert works hand in hand with producers he chooses for his own record label, Super Best Records. A dynamic and ideological producer, collaborating and working closely with a new generation of hip-hop & EDM producers, Menert is dedicated to bringing a new musical vision to life free from limitation.
