Cut In Ego

1 had a vision
But it was only a hallucination.
1 had a vision
But that was only a fantasy.
1 had a vision
But it was only a figment.
1 had a vision
But that was only a pipe dream.

Its end shall be dramatically
But until then
1 can try to stand,
Gain solid foothold again 
And that eventually
Until the end

Take the reject and
Try to reflect that
Cut in ego

1 had this vision
But it was only a big misconception.
Thought to be on a mission
But that was only an aberration.
How 1 was wishing
that it had another destination.

Its end designed dramatically
But until then
1 can try to stand,
Gain solid foothold again 
And that eventually
Until the end

Take the reject and
Try to reflect that

1 had a vision
But that only turned into a nightmare.
There seemed this mission
But now there is no time left to spare.

Its end will be dramatically
And until then

The end just fatally
And until then
1 can try to understand,
Regain solid mindset again,
Adapt the stand
Until the end

Take the reject and
Try to reflect that
Reflect the act and
Accept the fact, a

Cast of characters:
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and composition
Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez– guitars, bass, production and composition
J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell -- organ and synth
Thanks to Entheogenic Psychonaut (Josh Clary) for the original inspiration

Ken sent Tez the drums for the track High Noon (with Entheogenic Psychonaut and TexMex Shaman) with the aim of building up a new track - a worthy challenge :))))
Tez did a touch of remixing of the drum track and added the guitars and bass before inviting J.J. to add the finishing touches with his keys adding a new sonic dimension.

Bad Noon Rising - when you wake up at noon you know something interesting has gone on the night before but if the sun rises at noon you know you're in serious trouble (or in the Arctic circle)
Hope you enjoy :)

Coney Island Day
by Nadia Selvaggi

Let's get away!
The city's heat is driving us insane
The Grand Street hydrant has run dry
The air conditioner doesn't run on high
The Q train's only half an hour away

Ah, Coney Island day!

Feel the cool breeze in the sky,
a hundred feet up on high
The Wonder Wheel and Cyclone
are guaranteed to electrify

Where umbrellas dot the shoreline,
the sun burns under rainbow skies,
and kites swirl like ribbons in the sky,
just like my spirit does today

Let's take a holiday!

At Surf & Stillwell down the boardwalk,
we'll eat a Famous Nathan's hotdog,
play a game of volleyball,
ride in a bumper car and stay late,
and watch the fireworks display

We'll stroll down Riegelmann Boardwalk,
and take the rides at Luna Park,
eat candy apples and popcorn,
Totonno's pizza coal fired
on a mid summer day

We'll take a little holiday,
west of Ocean Parkway
Feel our troubles fade away
in Brooklyn's little hideaway

Ah, Coney Island Day!

Coney Island Day with Nadia Selvaggi

Nueva

Once upon a time in a distant land called Synthiopia, where people lived in harmony with music. But one day something extraordinary happened. A wise musician named The Master of Electronix created a synthesizer of unparalleled beauty and power.

This synthesizer was no ordinary instrument. It could produce sounds that touched the hearts of people like never before. The Master of Electronix played on the synthesizer and his melodies filled the air with a magic that changed the world.

The people of Synthiopia were fascinated by this new instrument. They listened as the synthesizer produced tones of incredible variety and depth. Soon, they began to compose their own songs and tell their stories with the help of this wonder instrument.

The world of music was never the same. The synthesizer found its way into every corner of Synthiopia and beyond. Its sounds were heard in the palaces of kings and in the cottages of peasants. People danced to its music and felt more alive than ever before.

But the greatest triumph of the synthesizer came when it conquered the hearts of people in other lands. Its melodies traveled across oceans and mountains, touching the souls of those who heard them. Soon, the synthesizer was no longer just an instrument of Synthiopia, but a treasure of the whole world.

And so the synthesizer lived on forever, its sounds continuing to unite people and fill the world with its magic.

Feel Free

Veal Stew

There’s a chicken wing restaurant near where I live that on Saturdays I often go to 

After cutting the grass and 
Wacking the weeds
Any  trimming any bushes unruly 

After several months if you sit in the same place the waitresses all get to know you 

And I always sit down 
in young Deborah’s section, 
she’s got a crush on yours truly

She really enjoys all the stories I tell and she laughs at my hilarious jokes 

She always makes sure I have plenty of ketchup, she doesn’t do that for the rest of these folks

Men, don’t fall in love with your waitress 
Being nice to you is part of her job 
Sure, she laughs at your jokes but she laughs at the jokes 
Of every Tom, Dick and Harry or Bob

One Saturday I’m sitting in my usual spot, but Debbie didn’t show for her shift 

And I’m thinking My god, 
what on earth could be wrong 
If I had her address then I could save her

And so I lied and told her manager that Debbie had called me and asked if I could give her a lift 

 He gave me her address 
On a cocktail napkin
And I thanked the man for doing me this favor! 

And I imagined when she saw me I would be her handsome hero and she’d plant on me a passionate kiss 

She’d say “leave your stupid, fat cow wife, she doesn’t love you, marry me instead and we’ll have marital bliss” 

Men, don’t fall in love with the waitress 
You’re not her white knight on a giant white galloping steed 
You’re just another guy who got the cheeseburger combo 
And an appetizer he didn’t need

So I drove up to her trailer and knocked softly on her screen 
And this 6 foot four gorilla came to greet me. 
He had perhaps the largest biceps I had ever seen 
And his fists were more than big enough to beat me. 

I said, “ I was sent to check on Debbie, make sure she’s okay 
Debbie then appeared engulfed in sadness 
She said, “wait a second, I know you, you’re there each Saturday. 
Why the hell did they give you my address?   

I said, “listen, I just wanted to make sure you were alright 
We’ve become so close I care about you deeply 
She said, “I just serve you chicken wings, what gives you the right! 
Get the hell off of my porch, you’re fucking creepy!  

So I got back in my car and I drove quickly away, for a moment there I feared for my life 

I knew that I had overstepped 
Her personal boundary 
And I could never sit again in Debbies section 

I thought from now on that after finishing the lawn, I should have a couple beers with my wife. 

We’re old and fat with two grown kids 
But just like Darwin said 
You have to trust in natural selection 

Men, don’t fall in love with your waitress 
On your personal reality try to keep a  very firm grip 
You’ve got a mortgage, a fat wife and four kids who need you 
So pay the check and leave a generous tip

Don't Fall In Love With The Waitress
