Reflections

Somewhat of an undemocratic approach to saving democracy, don't you think?
******************* 
For this one, I rounded up my fantasy band, the Famous Texas Men Of Note, to perform at the imaginary Seven Sisters Dance Hall, some 40 miles west of Austin, in the heart of the Texas Hill Country.  The crowd wasn’t huge that night, but it was plenty raucous.  Needless to say, we brought the house down.  We always do.

LYRICS
Finally bagged the prize,
Event commemorated with a photograph,
A delightful list of crimes,
Got ‘em prancin’ with the lawyers down the primrose path,
The scribes down in the court,
Breathlessly report,
With a glee they can’t contain,

Oh they’re giddy….

Giddy like the rats that swarm the sewage slag,
Giddy like the vultures, feasting on the rotted culture,
That has spawned them from its womb,
And they tell us all how grateful we should be,
Cause they’re doing it to save democracy.
 
Yeah all fortitude & grit,
Our protectors wouldn’t quit,
On this noble quest,
There would be no rest,
Staged sudden raids, drew dossiers,
Tried Russian links, threw kitchen sinks,
To cage the dreaded pest,
Damn the proper form,
They’ve snared Le Bete Orange,
Slam the gavel, bring the charge,

And now they’re giddy…..

Giddy like the buzzards circling o’er their prey,
Giddy like the varmints, chewing on the hated target,
While the judges hold him still,
Giddy like the frantic hawks, flailing with their shrilly squawks,
The fear they just can’t kill,
Damn the coming storm,
Now they’ve booked Le Bete Orange,
Slam the gavel, bring the charge,
Hey, the law may be applied unequally,
But it’s the only way to save democracy.

I beg you Lovely Lady, turn your head away,
Away from the shame, away from the pain,
America, America, how did we let it get this far?
We are your sons, what have we done?
What have we done……….

Ah but giddy doesn’t last, when the vengeance & the wrath,
Shred the piers that bear the load,
No it won’t be so hysterical, when even Heaven’s miracle,
Can’t keep our father’s code, 

Oh but decision day is nigh, & the beast is still alive,
And far too many still believe…..

So arrest the Monster!...show it on TV,
Silence him & anyone who won’t concede,
There’s no time for constitutionality,
When the mission is to save democracy.

Giddy (now with lyrics)

Downtown. Streetside bars. Instrumental. Kind of a latin/blues/jazz thing that morphed into hard rock, then synth pop.

Streetside

A guitar and voice demo of a song that I hope to record soon. The song is about a long-distance love.

Written by Stefano Manotti


LYRICS

I have never touched you

But you're still here

Our lives are stuck 

Words disappear



I have never kissed you 

I never will

I see your picture 

I Fall asleep



But you still guide me

Between the bars

You say “you are stronger 

Than you think you are”

 

Your words are far away

We fly and fall like rain

My lover, I feel no pain

My lover, I see your name



And I’m so scared 

To hear your voice 

But I’m prepared 

To leave this void 



You understand 

You see beyond 

Why did it take you so long





But you still guide me

Between the bars

You say “you are stronger 

Than you think you are”





Your words are far away

We fly and fall like rain

My lover, I feel no pain

My lover, I see your name

Fly and Fall (Demo)

Hey sister... 
what do you think about the city you miss?
Is it better to just now remember?
Or fade away into a peaceful place

Cause you ain't goin' home... again
you can see the path that lies ahead of you bend...away...into the night
and if you ever find...your way...to the end
then I could finally sleep again.

So come on meet me down by the river... brother and sister
Come and feel the life return to your soul...in the water
and wash away those marks of a sinner...you might
and let them flow on down with the river...tonight.

Hey mother...and father
what do you see upon the road ahead...as your drive?
And have you come now to reconsider?
Or float the same way on to the end?

Cause you ain't comin' home
you can feel the years that lie behind you fade...away...into the night
and if you ever lose yourself...again
then I could finally leave...amen.

2x
So come on meet me down by the river... brother and sister
Come and feel the life return to your soul...in the water
and wash away those marks of a sinner...you might
and let them flow on down with the river...tonight.

So come on meet me down by the river... mother and father
Come and feel the life return to your soul...in the water
and wash away those marks of a sinner...you might
and let them flow on down with the river...tonight. Yea....

Moonlight (demo)

The music for Lady of Fire's poetry almost writes itself. Everyone who reads my descriptions knows how much I appreciate working with her. This track is no exception. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed composing and producing the track.

As in our former collaborations, Lady of Fire (whose Soundcloud site one should really visit for good music, poetry and voice art  https://soundcloud.com/ladyofire), she did all the magic with the words while all about the music was my pleasure.

Belly Deep

You are made
from the marrow
of the profundity
of bones
living without the
Certainty of vision
But the promise of
Eternal life
You are the primordial soup
Of your own making
Eat wisely and reap
from
the belly deep

...with Lady of Fire Poetry: Belly Deep

In the Ruined Room, Picknickers Would Have Lit Their Kettles; Lovers Sought Shelter

i wrote this one as a country song, oddly...but it seems i resorted to grunge when push came to record ; )

what she reads

Hey, what can I say? Sometimes it gets rough. But it's still good.

------------------------------------------------------------------

on a summer blanket
in the moonlight
with the beach stones stirring
after midnight

i am ready
and i dare

god you know you’re tired
may you rest now
many ways to try it
lay the load down

i am ready (good to go)
i am there (going)

hey hey hey who
checkout avenue

on tomorrow’s bastion
once immortal
now you sense the ending
as a portal

i am ready
honeybear
i’m not waiting 
i am there

i am ready (here’s my ride)
and i dare (good night)
we’re not waiting (good to go)
we are there
