From the album ‘Trust No Leaders’ by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. Released July 1, 2022. 

// The Chefs Song
'The Chefs Song' is a satirical vaudeville that dramatises the pressures of working in a busy kitchen. What the theatrical comedy of the song belies  is a sinister truth, a tragedy that plagues our modern societies — the prevalence of modern slavery in the 21st century.

According to a study by the Human Trafficking  Foundation (2018): More than 1 in 10 people who work in hospitality in the world are reported to be working under modern slavery conditions. For far too long, this has remained hidden from the public eye — behind the closed doors of some kitchens, hotels, and restaurants.

LYRICS

Ladies and gentlemen
Culinary connoisseurs
Welcome to our special
Evening Supper Club

Tonight we have a special guest appearance
From an award winning chef
Not to be missed

Before we begin
Could everyone please
Leave their opinions and children at the cloakroom
‘Cos no one wants to hear them, really

I don't want to overcook
I don't want to overcook
I don't want to overcook

This evening's menu
Features only the finest and freshest
Locally sourced produce

For starters
We have the exquisite foie gras
From the liver of our kitchen porter, Gary

Chop chop
Underpaid labour
Wash your hands
First In
First Out
You are, useless

Is there any way you could make this pudding less conservative
Excuse me, do you speak American
No, salt is not a vegetable and you cannot have fries with that

Everything is funny
Until you
Become dinner

Revenge’s
A dish best served cold
But don’t wait too long
Or it will get
Old

I don't want to overcook
I don't want to overcook
I don't want to overcook

What appears to be the issue here
Er, I think I'll have the braised Boris Johnson, actually

�  About The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara

Hailed as ‘pioneers of a new form of expression’ through the performance of poetry in music, The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS) are a UK-based duo comprising Daphne Ang (Singapore) and Andrea Papi (Italy), who came together in London in early 2020 to record their debut album, Full Spectrum, released on 26 Feb 2021. Breaking new ground in the way they combine progressive music, poetry, and vision, TCOMAS fills a gap in music by bringing literature, theatre, and history, fusing rock and metal, with poetry performance. Their sophomore album, Trust No Leaders, is due to arrive on July 1, 2022.

I'm So Happy

The Cold Remains Of A World Shrouded

A wandering star crosses the sky below the Archer.
I have in mind lyrics and chords that could be fine.

My mom and dad are so upset. It's getting so wet.
They wish I was a stupid exec. It's getting so wet.

A satellite goes slowly up the northern star.
I have in mind silly illusions. I must be blind. 

My mom and dad are so upset. It's getting so wet.
They wish I was a stupid exec. It's getting so wet.

I've been singing the whole day out. It’s getting so wet.
I wish I was an authentic star.  It's getting so wet.
Truly recognized. In the state of art. It's getting so wet.
With no success, I go home tonight. It’s getting so wet.

It's Getting So Wet

went away for a bit to become a better songwriter and producer. This is one of the songs I've been brewing up!

Waymouth square
Lyrics:

A-deel  

In the sleepy town of Waymouth 
I learned God was a phony 
From the moment I was sold 
to my man in his fourty’s 
He’s always late, never early 
speaks polite, hair straight not curly 
Morning after morning he bakes me apple pies 
From the fresh love and the money that he always provides 
Yet when I’m lying in our selfmade paradise 
I close my eyes 

B-deel 

And my life, changes just a bit 
Like the weather does 
I say, after rainy days 
You'll see the sun shine through 
Wings on my wedding ring 
Fly away so so-o-o-on 

Hook 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh x4 

A-deel 

In the sleepy town of Waymouth 
They hide behind their work 
Their rigorous tasks that can’t even give a smirk 
But when the last rays of sun fade away 
I write in my dairy everyday 
To finance my escape from this peaceful town 
To get my anger out when I’m feeling down 
And as the words go from thoughts to rhymes I 
Close my eyes 
 
B-deel 

And my life, changes just a bit 
Like the weather does  
I say, after rainy days 
You'll see the sun shine through 
Grown, I’m far away from home 
Will I be back  so-o-o-on? 

Hook 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh x10

Waymouth Square

this is another new tune by  Earth Patriot . 
recorded in June of 2024 with a Bc Rich Mockinbird trough a Marshall MG100HDFX head.

I know I want you
I know I want you so bad

at the end of this race
the past won´t be rearranged
hurry up - make your move 
you don´t have much to lose

not much to lose
you don´t have much to lose

make it real 
before you tell anyone
how you feel

Nightmares from Elmstreet 11

not much to lose

Not Much to Lose ( Make your Move )

Every chorus tells a tale of hope and every breakdown tells a tale of darkness – that’s the painfully sincere premise of latest metal output Savage Mountain from Dortmund, Germany. In a restless artistic endeavor, the threepiece spent the last two years working on their first EP “What Lies Beneath My Sorrow”. With it, singer Karl Erik aims to channel music into a form of diary writing – leaving no stone unturned in his attempt to understand his own story and dealing with the hardships of loneliness, despair and the never-ending search for identity.

Frail Eye

Un EP expérimental sur un mix de rock, de grunge, de glam, le tout aux tendances metal(core) 

Girl In A Truck

Metal, punk/hardcore, and southern rock influences. Smooth frequencies and rhythms deadly. This is the new way, just another war

If you like my music, please consider giving me a stream or two on spotify or buying my music on bandcamp; any support is greatly appreciated!
