Lyrics:

My name is midnight, my name is cold bones and whispers.
My name is night-thoughts, call me the color kisser.
My eyes are streetlights, shadows, mosaic mirrors.
My mind of wet-winds, spitting shiny terrors.

Doo doo doo, you know it’s how I roll…
Superpowers in small hours, you know it’s how I roll...

Next to crumpled cardboard, a patch of alley flowers.
The limping legs that, measure city blocks into hours.
Smoking circles round bus stop pageant contestants,
A bag of brain-juice, to help create and imagine.

Doo doo doo, you know it’s how I roll…
Superpowers in small hours, you know it’s how I roll...

In subway echoes and Broadway battles,
that make the doors slam and windows rattle.
Superpowers in the smallest hours,
reciting rainstorms from the dollhouse tower.

Doo doo doo, you know it’s how I'm gonna roll…
Superpowers in small hours, you know it’s how I'm gonna roll with it...

Dedicated to Tio Flamingo and his family.
Logo property of the Boston Bruins.
Lyrics:
Remember when we
were jamming with Jennie
A thousand songs…
all night long.

Chartreuse in Rio
con Tio Flamingo
The Voodoo Chile
who crossed the Nile
in Boston style…

We’re South American 
when winter is in the wind
strumming green guitars
under Santiago stars.

So the puzzles of the pyramids still loom…
But the black and golden bees buzz all your tunes.

Whoa…

Drink and be merry.
Vodka Cranberry.
Jerusalem…
Just another stop for him…

We’re Super Mexican 
when winter is in the wind
strumming green guitars
under Mexicano stars.

So the puzzles of the pyramids still loom…
But the black and golden Bees buzz all your tunes.

Tio Flamingo…

We’re South American 
when winter is in the wind
strumming green guitars
under Santiago stars.

So the puzzles of the pyramids still loom…
But the black and golden bees buzz all your tunes.
So the legendary trickster made his escape.
I’ll meet you on the next world, don’t be late.

Lyrics:
We’re all the same, trying to stay out of the rain.
We’ve all spent time, looking for people we can’t find.

Here it comes again, here it comes again…
Here it comes again, here it comes again…

I don’t want to hurt nobody, 
I just like people who think I’m funny,
And I know that I shouldn’t sweat ya, 
Or the good times we had before this stormy weather hit.

Why must it be? Stuck in a swamp in the city…
I guess we’ll see, if we chop down these forests for their trees.
You must admit, when you first arrived you were a hit.
We’d seen the light, so sometimes we killed it for the night?

Here it comes again, here it comes again…
Here it comes again, here it comes again…

I don’t want to hurt nobody, 
I just like people who think I’m funny, ha ha!
And I know that I shouldn’t sweat ya, 
Or the good times we had before this stormy weather hit.

Don’t worry bout me, I’m doing fine…
Ya coulda called to see, but maybe we both just lost our… minds
Mind, I will mind my own business, my own business
Cuz now I know… I guess…
I guess I just woulda hated to miss ya…

Chorus

Bridge 

Chorus

Here it comes again…

Here It Comes Again

My semi-cover of an old track by Daniel Kanabus. Vocals are his.

As always, I have no idea what he's saying. So no lyrics.
