Girl in the Box

All music & lyrics by Dred Fouglas


Lyrics: 

Hold on to my horns, babe,
there's a little place I want to take you 
Where the graveyard hounds howl all night,
and the moon shines its mad jack-o'-lantern light
Come on, give me your witchy love
Witchy love

Gonna lay you down on my tombstone, girl
All lit up with will-o'-the-wisp 
Not a pair of living eyes for miles,
only the vacant stares of skulls left in piles 
Come on, give me your witchy love
Give me your witchy love
Witchy love 

Been dying just to lick your 
broken-glass body with my forked tongue
Watch me burn my name into your skin
You’ll never want to leave here again
Burn my name into your skin
You’ll never want to leave here again
Come on, give me your witchy love
Give me your witchy love
Give me your witchy love

Witchy Love

giant steps up

Taken from my album Tales of generation x
People may ask themselves over time of why carry a burden and stay alone? and to not find love
I carry a lot of love and desire ,we are on this planet for a very short time and people need to find the right person and the right kind of love and friendship otherwise we might waste our energy and freedoms in the wrong direction if you find a spark try and keep it lit

Tokyo Rain

Cherry blossom in her hair
Just like the way that you remember her
Black eyelashes like feathers
The way that you remember her
 
In the Tokyo rain
In the Tokyo rain
 
She’s a wreckage on the street in the shadow of your life
Just like the way that you remember her
She’s the ghost you can’t forget
She’s that half-forgotten smile
Just like the way that you remember her
 
In the Tokyo rain
In the Tokyo rain
 
She’s holding onto you, like she’s frightened of the night
Just like the way that you remember her
She’s the ghost you can’t forget
She’s that half-forgotten smile
Just like the way that you remember her
 
In the Tokyo rain
In the Tokyo rain

Tokyo Rain - Steph Sweet and drunkeninstrumentcorporation

As a singer and novelist, I never really paid full attention to having a ‘proper’ career. I’ve always done any McJob going to make the rent, but the eighteen months I spent working in the second largest A&E in the UK has to be the most rewarding, terrifying, exhausting and bonkers work I’ve ever done. Particularly on the nightshift.
 
On The Nightshift

Written, performed and recorded by Steph Sweet in England 2015

There’s a crazy, hazy rain streaking orange on the glass,
Past the roadworks and the accident, the closed lane on the by-pass.
I didn’t sleep a wink today, I’m going to be late.
Number nineteen had the strimmer out, then tried to fix his gate.
I’m on the nightshift, ooh, I’m on the nightshift.

I corner to the barrier, but I’ve lost my I.D card,
I find it in the footwell. The security guard
Waves me in past maternity, all screams and pink balloons.
Twelve ambulance, three riot-vans, four cop-cars in the gloom.
I’m on the nightshift, ooh, I’m on the nightshift.

I’ve got care in the community in seven to fourteen
And a homicidal maniac has took a shine to me.
Two suicides and a self-harm have just been stretchered in,
While a homeless girl is crying and eating from the bin.
I’m on the nightshift, ooh, I’m on the nightshift.

Poor old soul with dementia is wandering in his pants.
Last orders in the city has brought some drunken lads.
I got crack-heads, whores and junkies all screeching in the queue,
A crash for cash, some swallowed hash , a time-waster or two.
I’m on the night-shift, ooh, I’m on the nightshift.

Please, please don’t spit at me in Accident and Emergency.
Please, please why can’t you see? 
I’m just a lowly admin clerk on the nightshift A&E.
Please, please don’t spit at me in Accident and Emergency.
Please, please why can’t you see?
I’m just a lowly admin clerk on the nightshift A&E.
I’m on the nightshift, ooh, I’m on the nightshift.

Edie Review " Thankfully Steph is still ploughing her particular esoteric furrow and has just released her new single Edie which is as good as anything she's released to date. It sounds like a darkly psychedelic theme from a long forgotten  left field spaghetti western and it's absorbing and utterly enchanting. If the Velvet Underground had been commissioned to do the title track for the Good, The Bad and the Ugly, this is how it would sound." The Devil Has The Best Tuna 13th May 2022

Gigradar "British singer-songwriter Steph Sweet freely admits she’s a “refined taste” but it’s difficult to not be intrigued by her feisty, often contentious approach to pyschy acoustic indie-rock meets punk brand of music."

Popocculture
"Steph Sweet has brought an interesting and new sound to this area.
With powerful vocals, and swirlly and crunchy guitar riffs that wouldn’t sound out of place in a late 90’s britpop, yet grounded somewhere more in the early 80’s. “All The Things” is dark, broody, a little strange, but also interestingly an ear worm that will grab you and not let go." 

" If the Bronte sisters formed a freak folk band then it'd probably sound something like this." 
Paul Kerr - The Devil Has The Best Tuna

" Placed somewhere between Devandra Banhart and Joanna Newsome, the singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist  -  vocals, guitars, drums, keyboards  -   combines a talent for bewitching songwriting, with a dreamy, lo-fi alt-gaze delivery."
