Faint Signal

Ear To The Ground (Demo)

Recorded down very roughly so I don't lose the ideas.

From a project called Protractor

Birch Bark Arms (extremely! pieced together demo)

From a project called Protractor.

Lyrics:

I no longer need to run after buffalo.
Enter a store, buy a marshmallow.
No need to chase down wild gazelle
Open a package of sweet Pizzelle.

No need to pierce the skin of a cow.
Someone will do it for me...I won't see how.
I can feel safe having pets around the house
no risk of putting the kitty in my mouth.

With all this idle time I need something to do.
Go to work, school, find a hobby or two.
Now the money is the hunt, yeah money is the prey.
Can't buy a steak without money today.

The Hunt (Demo)

Kids Don't (Demo)

From a project called Protractor.

Needs a better guitar solo at the end.

Mary's Toil (Demo)

A song about how I had to stop doing what I loved to do because of health/pain.  I gave up doing pottery and started doing scrapping...finding stuff in dumpsters and getting recyclable metal from appliances.  So what I loved to do literally went to scrap.

Lyrics:

The table's all messy with crap,
the wheel, it sits, it's not spinnin' these days,
and I'm savin' up the scrap.

The copper, and gold....aluminum is sold
downtown, I know a place.
Fueled by coffee and diet pepsi
I'm lost and drifting, clippin and strippin'

It's all gone to scrap....

The doctors have scanned my body and brain
they can't find the source, the source of my pain.
Why can't someone just show me the route. 
Knock on my door say, "hey i figured it out"

It's all gone to scrap....

People from miles around came 
to buy my art made out of clay.
Beautifully crafted, was good while it lasted
the pots, they sold like hot cakes.  

It's all gone to scrap...

Gone To Scrap (Demo)

Is it really about a bunny?  Or is it smoldering sexual energy?...We may never know.

My Bunny (Demo)

There used to be this guy we'd see at parties who would come up to girls and say, "Hey...I got a van...", trying to score, and he asked MY girl this and she replied, "Yeah, so does my mom!" Everyone laughed and the guy's face turned beet red.
