Kerosene

Word on the street now don’t repeat
He pays to look so clean
Scratch beneath that shiny suit
He’s nothing but obscene
They say he’s got a taste for kerosene
Carries it around in his canteen
Strikes a match just to set the scene

Fortune teller fables
He’ll tell it to you plain
Sell you tales of sunshine
While you’re soaking wet with rain
He’ll lie straight to your face and then complain
That you don’t tell the truth — that’s his game
Don’t believe a word he says they’re all the same
He’s a con man king
King Kerosene

He leaves a trail of sins and next of kin
You’ll steer clear if you’re wise
But I can see you’re tempted
By the poison of his eyes
Bares his teeth while straightening out his tie
Pounds his chest, exaggerates his size
So this is where truth has come to die

One day soon he’ll meet his doom
His debts will be repaid
There’ll be lines around the block to see
This piper finally played
I do think that deep down he is afraid
He might lose his shine and then he’s made
His biggest fear is that he’s going to fade away
King Kerosene

Word on the street now don’t repeat
He pays to look so clean
Scratch beneath that shiny suit
He’s nothing but obscene
They say he’s got a taste for kerosene
Carries it around in his canteen
Strikes a match just to set the scene

He’s a con man king
King Kerosene

Avalon

Northern California-based unclassifiable duo Misner & Smith treasure the unpredictability of their band. Technically precise songwriting mirrored with an improvisatory spirit and soaring harmonies are the hallmark of their sound. On their new album, "All is Song", they turn in their finest work to date, an album of inspired declarations to the power of music and song.
