Hello.

Beautiful track. Used it here: http://youtu.be/_jcV82fqqPw

Thanks for allowing the use of it...

@shooterwise: thanks so much! A good match with your battle in the sky!

A comedic song about last minute gift buying and the "add-on" sales that are so prominent in retail. Having worked in retail for a number of years, I unloaded much of this junk from trucks annually, and packed it up in January.

LAST MINUTE GIFTS 
lyrics ©2013 Nathan Fleet (SOCAN)

VERSE
I don't wanna CD from the dollar store
Musicians that I've never heard of before
A nice new mug or a Christmas shirt
I smile and say thanks cuz I don't wanna hurt

How many candles do you think I need
A bag of 100 seems a little like greed
The little white ones they don't even smell
I think that Jesus will send you straight to He...

...llo my family come on in
It's that time of year again
Here comes the gift bag full of clothes
I hope there's a receipt so I can pick out my own

I'm not saying I don't appreciate
That you couldn't read the tag or you were shopping late
But the socks are too long and the undies are tight
They used to hang in the middle now they're squished to the right

CHORUS
I Don't wanna nutcracker or a jam tree
No new socks or sweater from my mommy
Left over chocolate that expired in 93
No last minute gifts for me

VERSE
Store bought cookies and christmas cake
Didn't your mamma teach you how to bake
The Italian lady right next door says
"How come-a no body bake-a no more

You got me a Menorah but I'm not a Jew
Another snow globe with a picture of you
Probably nothing left at the malls
I'd rather you just kick me right in the ba...

....lls and ornaments for my tree
"Thanks so much they're lovely"
I'll keep em in the box that's what I'll do
Next year I'll wrap em up and give em back to you

CHORUS

Is this what Jesus had in mind
Is this the legacy he left behind
Now I know just how I feel
I'm gonna tell your kids that Santa isn't real...

...ly feeling great about your gifting style
You run through the store and just pick an aisle
The magical bin while you wait in line
All this junk for only $2.99

BRIDGE
You always say the holidays are just too much
It should be about family and friends and such
Well here's a thought you should think over
Next year just become a Jehovah

VERSE
You'll have to go from door to door
They'll turn out the lights and they will ignore
But you just keep on spreading the word
and sing so loud so your voice can be heard

CHORUS
I Don't wanna nutcracker or a jam tree
No new socks or sweater from my mommy
Left over chocolate that expired in 93
No last minute gifts for
No last minute gifts for
No last minute gifts for me
No last minute gifts for me.

Bad Things

I am nervous to share this. But here goes. 

I write a lot of sad songs about ex-boyfriends and whatever, and I feel like it’s time to start using my art to talk about the issues that are actually important to me.

Here’s something fucked: 1 in 3 girls will be sexually assaulted by the time they reach the age of 18. And I have 2 sisters.

I really kind of dove into the deep end with this song, and I’m so fucking scared to share it. It revisits two very dark times from my life. It’s taken me a long time to come to peace with myself, to move past the guilt, the embarrassment. Even after all of this time, it's still very hard to share. 

I am opening my heart. I want my music to help others. 
PM me a screenshot of your donation (any amount) to any of the organizations below and I’ll send you this song, and my Girlhood EP for free.

Two Sisters 

I think it was a Tuesday. That’s what it felt like, anyway 
The day you tore my dress and you swore it’d be okay
Lying in the bathtub, surrounded by my blood
I was nine, but I pretended it was love 

It’s been a couple years, now. Though I still remember, somehow 
Through all the times I’ve tried erasing it from my mind 
I didn’t understand, then. I barely knew the concept 
But I bet you can guess that I never was the same

I never know, I never know. Is there another word for no, that I just don’t know?

My body is freezing, so you offer up your sheets
I’ve been drinking and I tell you I’m only sixteen
You said it wouldn’t happen. But now I’m drunk passed out on your bed
If I had the strength, you know I would have fought back.

It’s been a couple years, now. Though I still remember, somehow 
Through all the times I’ve tried erasing it from my mind
My friends didn’t believe me. Well I wish they could have seen me
Stumbling around in the street after you kicked me out that night

I never know, I never know. Is there another word for no, that I just don’t know?

I want to say your name, now. Specific consonants and vowels
But I can’t bring myself to call you out 
They say it’s one in three girls, and I have two sisters

Here's a little funk that came out this weekend! Definitely a child of the 70's!
