Lyrics:

Blue velvet
Orange peaches
Got me waking up 
Early in the morning

Fish swimming 
Outta water
Only feel like that
When I’m not supposed to

Read the side-notes 
That’s what I mean
Words are herds of nerds
And things that I should say

Blue velvet
Orange peaches
Got me waking up
Early in the morning

Hair’s growing 
Tight rope walking
The trains just leaving 
And I’m wondering when we’ll get there

Pouring coffee
Makes me happy
Today’s a new day and
I own my own goddamn life

Blue velvet
Orange peaches
Got me waking up 
Early in the morning

Fish swimming 
Outta water
Only feel like that
When I’m not supposed to

Orange Peaches

Goodbye

Goodbye baby
I didn’t want to see you go
Projections of your face
On my eyelids at night

It’s a shame
It’s a shame

I know. It was coming
Didn’t make it any easier
My open book eyes
Couldn’t hide it anymore

It’s a shame
It’s a shame

I know I’m not alone
Love surrounds my skin and bone
I think of you everyday
Praying that you’re okay

It’s a shame
It’s a shame

11 Goodbye

Fairy Tale

Following breadcrumbs 
Will get you lost
Cotton candy cabins
No way back

Witch will meet you there
Nice disguise
Eat your body whole
Leave your bones to dry

Life’s a fairy tale
Ooo-ooo 
Life’s a fairy tale
Ooo-ooo

Two sisters
Make me work
Sittin pretty
Step mom’s a jerk

Clock strikes twelve
Prince charming
Glass shoe fits
A happy ending

Life’s a fairy tale
Ooo-ooo
Life’s a fairy tale
Ooo-ooo

Mirror mirror 
On the wall
Who’s the fairest?
Of them all

Seven dwarfs 
Evil apple
Red lips
Immortal kiss

Life’s a fairy tale
Ooo-ooo
Life’s a fairy tale
Ooo-ooo

10 Fairy Tale

Fly

Beauty of a hive knows no bumblebee
Crash of a wave knows no water
And the journey of a life knows no status 
The journey of a life knows no

Hatching eggshell knows no chicken 
Twinkle of an eye knows no moon
And the journey of a life knows no status 
The journey of a life knows no

Fly till you’re free
Stand up strong
And wipe your feet at the door
Wipe your feet at the door

Crunch of an apple knows no tree
Crazy of the mind knows no me
And the journey of a life knows no status 
The journey of a life knows no

Nostalgia of a moment knows no time
Crash of a wave knows no water
And the journey of a life knows no status 
The journey of a life knows no

Fly till you’re free
Stand up strong
And wipe your feet at the door
Wipe your feet at the door

Beauty of a hive knows no bumblebee
Crash of a wave knows no water
And the journey of a life knows no status 
The journey of a life knows no

Crunch of an apple knows no tree
Twinkle of an eye knows no moon
And the journey of a life knows no status 
The journey of a life knows no

Fly till you’re free
Stand up strong
And wipe your feet at the door
Wipe your feet at the door

Pretty Enough

Just pretty enough

He said she’s just pretty enough
To get by

White tee shirt
Stains for days
A whole in his sweatpants
He thought she could do better
Oh he thinks he knows 
What the world wants
We got another thing comin
Keep you eye on the ball

Pretty enough

He said she’s just pretty enough
To get by

Talked to mom 
She said you’re doing just great
Don’t worry don’t worry
Tomorrow’s a new day

You’re better than

You’re better than

She said I don’t care

Mountains

Windy roads
To and fro
Up we go
Higher and higher

Fresh air 
Thinner breathe
Pop the tent 
I’ll spark a fire

Cluttered hoof prints
Sage valley mist
Pinch me serene
Trail ride gallop

Bear bang growls 
Rattle through my brain
Those mountains are with me for good
Those mountains are with me for good

Windy roads
To and fro
Up we go
Higher and higher

Fresh air 
Thinner breathe
Pop the tent 
I’ll spark a fire

Cluttered hoof prints
Sage valley mist
Pinch me serene
Trail ride gallop

Bear bang growls 
Rattle through my brain
Those mountains are with me for good
Those mountains are with me for good

Tingling Taste Bud

It’s too unique
Don’t’ let it go
Let it grow

Try not to care
What people think 
It’s not concrete

Know your worth 
It’s more than a penny
After hours working unlike many

Do what you love
Do what you love

Create a magnet 
A force field of energy
Smiling faces, dancing feet

Try not to care
What people think 
It’s not concrete

Coffee tastes bad
The very first time
But give it a try 
It’ll be your new happy habit
It’s just a tingling taste bud

Tingling 
Tingling tingling
Tingling
Taste bud

Be the stinky cheese
The spark in the fire
Be the stinky cheese
The spark in the fire

Do what you love
Do what you love

Fortune Telling

Been waiting to see
How you found me out here
Cause we grew outside
Of this space and time

Feeling new
Breathin fresh air for the first time
I got it I know
What I’m meant to do

La-di-da-da
La-da di-di da-da

You found me 
And loved me for the things I’d change
Suddenly 
I realized we’ve met before

How many times 
Do you think we’ve shared this heaven?
Cause we’re bold brash and learning 
We’re both fortune telling

Cause we’re bold brash and learning 
We’re both fortune telling

By chance, by current, bye dear
My dear

Ooo and I don’t know
How you found me out here
Who knows where?
We’ll end up next

Hope I’m holding your hand
As we walk on thru
To the other side
This forever is really forever

La-di-da-da
La-da di-di da-da

You gotta know 
How to surrender to your gut
Just soak it in
This stream flows here only once

You’re my rainbow
Glowin after the storm 
We’re bold brash and learning 
We’re both fortune telling

We’re bold brash and learning 
We’re both fortune telling

By chance, by current, bye dear
My dear

Hope I’m holdin your

Stone Cold Lover

Sitting in the corner
Lookin out the window
The leaves are fallin down 
Leaves are fallin down

Talking to myself 
Daydreaming of cosmic bows
Leaves are nice and brown
Drifting all through town

They remind me of you
They remind me of you
They remind me of you
They remind me

But my memories a
Stone cold lover
Yeah my memories a
Stone cold lover 

Carvin out a pumpkin 
You’re a cuddly little dumplin
Bats were flying round
I’ll never forget the sound

Fire whips and crackles 
Marshmallow on the wall
The snow is fallin down
The snow is fallin down

It reminds me of you
It reminds me of you
It reminds me of you
It reminds me

But my memories a
Stone cold lover
Yeah my memories a
Stone cold lover

Water

Swimmin through all the seaweed
Ticklin toes from beneath me
Hangin in the sea
Where I feel free

Pokin my head outta the water
Sun hits shimmer why bother
And we have sky blue
Watchin the cloud zoo

Down down deeper is where who knows
Tying the universe in mystic bows
Body limp let it flow
Stars create cosmic snow

In the snow we pee our signs
Poetry of gods writing time
Lining up you and me
Cancer and Pisces we be

Won't you put me in the water
Won't you put me in the water
Won't you put me in the water
Where I can breathe

Where there’s no light

Deep in the ocean I’m flyin a kite
We can relate to unknown creates there

Lurkin beneath anonymous creatures
Let them be or seek to see
What could they be?
To be there

Seeking revelation would I be free?
Seeking revelation could I be free?
To hell with it I’m not afraid of the dark
Swimming deeper down I’ll send you a shark
Cause I’m not afraid of the dark
No I’m not afraid of the dark

Put me in the water
Won't you put me in the water
Won't you put me in the water
Where I can breathe

ROAR! is the alt-rock electronic duo of long-time friends Carly Meyers and Adam Gertner.

Their music pays homage to the city ROAR! was born in:  New Orleans. Trombone. Yes. Heavy on the drums. Hell, yes. But that's where the similarities with other bands stop. ROAR! blends electronics with live instruments and vocals to create infectious songs. The kind of songs that get stuck in the brain.  

Carly lays open her heart on stage through her dragon-slaying trombone, fiery malletkat playing and punk-edge vocals. Respect is hard earned in a drummer's town. Adam rises to the challenge with deep grooves, drilling riffs and heart pounding energy. They unite live music with pedals and electronic samples into a seamless sonic convergence unlike any other electronic duo. Their sound is as enormous and invincible as the live oaks in New Orleans. A town rich in culture and musical heritage, ROAR! respects the old and sacred, yet mixes the sounds with the flavor of a new generation. 

The duo's attitude is fearless. They played their first show on live TV and haven't looked back, unless someone asks what got them to ROAR! The band Yojimbo prepared them for relentless touring. They've played shows at local Big Easy favorites such as Blue Nile, D.B.A, One Eyed Jack's, Gasa Gasa, The Republic and legendary Tipitina's. They've performed at major festivals and opened for artists such as Sylvan Esso, George Clinton, Primus, Clutch, Umphrey's McGee and many more.  

Carly and Adam sound exactly like ROAR! should sound--exuberant, defiant and original. Ready to win the hearts of fans everywhere. 


ROAR!
