Digit

How ya doing? What’s your hurry?  Where ya going? Can I talk to you a minute?
I got an offer. Sort of strange, but if you listen there’ll be something for you in it. 
As you can see I’m not a man who’s too extreme. I only like to push the limit. 
The check is blank. Just fill it in and ask yourself would you really miss the digit?

Chorus
Don’t be afraid I’m by your side
Don’t drag your feet, there’s not much time
Let’s cut it off and cauterize
It’s not that bad it’s one of five
So let’s cut it off!

I don’t believe it! Are you stupid? Take the money! Why are you so sentimental?
We’ll make it quick! You’ll feel the thrill and not the pain. It shouldn’t be so detrimental! 
I’m out for blood, but not a lot. Just say the word and we can keep it confidential.
Either way it’s coming with me. I can take it. I’ll make it look accidental!

Chorus

DIGIT

We’re atop this rise of steel, but there is not a need to kneel
For here we are above the rest, like a mother sitting on her nest
We do not want the eggs to hatch. The young pry themselves form our latch
And bolts of steel will rust away. The sky will quickly turn to gray.

Chorus
This tower of the gods was built out of lies
They’re crude and corrupt. It’s they we despise
We want their control. We want their demise
And as we rise up we’ll look to the skies.

The queen has met her tragic fate. The king has fallen to checkmate.
Skyscrapers fell into the dust, which brought fourth the return of lust.
The rain came down to hush the blaze, and in the end it’s he who pays 
The cost of ruling overall. That’s why they will applaud his fall
The pawns have taken all the rooks. They’ve slayed the knights and all the crooks.
This violence has begotten peace and gave rest to all the deceased
Their mother’s milk was not a waste, and flowers grew where they were placed.
The King thought he could take them on only to get struck by a pawn.

Chorus

Prawns

Home

You fell like an angel and came down to me from the sky
And I loved you from the first moment I looked in your eyes
But darling, oh darling, it’s so hard to tell you goodbye

Chorus
But I must go across the sky
Don’t ask me where, don’t ask me
Just look to the stars when you’re alone
You’ll find me there. I’ll be at home.

I watched the sun reach the horizon then fall from my gaze
Since then Ive traveled in darkness for all of my days
Now all that I fear is the sun will appear and will bring back the memory 
Of all of those tears on your face

Bridge
The stars and satellites scar the sky night
But when the sun rises crosses the horizon they’re lost in the light
Burning light

Chorus

HOME

Here is a new recording of a very old song

The Bloody Mushrooms - My Shadow

Witch at the Bar

Baby, you got needs
I’ll chase you round the bar like a dog chase a cat up a tree
Sweet honey, what’s your name?
I don’t know what you’re drinking, but I’m thinking the same
The bar tender turned and said

I’ve lit a lot of smokes, poured a lot of drinks
Met a lot of folks, but none quite as bizarre 
As the lady in red, lay with her and you’re dead
So don’t get in the car with the witch at the bar

Woah baby, I gotta know is it true?
I heard a lot of things but I haven’t heard a word outta you
Ah, sugar, maybe he’s right
You caught me by surprise; I see some magic in your eyes tonight
The room went suddenly black
I thought I had a heart attack
As my arms and legs grew weak
I opened my mouth but I couldn’t speak
 
Key solo, Drum solo, Guitar solo

Wicked lady, what have you done?
There was a man sitting here, I turned around to get his beer and he’s gone
Oh, woman, don’t cast your gaze at me!
I think there’s something there that you just might care to see
And then a man walked into the room
He was intoxicated by the perfume
Then all it took was a wink
He walked up to the girl and asked to buy her a drink

Chorus, Chorus


Witch at the Bar

I am rubber, you are glue
Bounce off me and stick to you
There is nothing you can do
Just give up your turn is through
I am rubber, you are glue
Bounce off me and stick to you
There is gum under my shoe
Once it's down it won't pass through

Your life is nothing
You could be something
Your girl is shady
That's not your baby

Imagine if you will a society in which people can grow and prosper. Oh yes, it can exist, but only if you should believe it exists. For perception is reality and reality is knowing you know nothing

Our efforts have been for not, for our grievances have gone unheard and unanswered. We have been sending out an SOS during the daytime with a flashlight. Somehow these distress signals have gone un-noted. It is both a waste of time and batteries yet somehow it feels better than doing nothing.




Rubber and Glue

(Verse 1) 
Wake up in the morning and I feel like Hell, 
I hoped I was dreaming when you said farewell, 
but I was awake when you walked out the door, 
gave all I could take, but you wanted more. 
I was a fool thinking it would last, 
you came in my world and then you left so fast. 
I heard what you said and I lost control, 
now your side of the bed is empty and cold.

(Bridge) 
And although our love is lost, 
I just can't afford the cost, 
of living without you by my side; 
each word from your mouth is like cyanide. 
And I know by singing this song, 
I turned our love that we had so long 
into something that it never was, 
but I can't stop because 

(Chorus) 
I can't see myself loving no one else other than yourself (4x)

(Verse 2) 
A year has gone by since I've seen your face 
I met someone new but she can't replace 
the times that we had or the things that we shared; 
hearts broken so bad, they can't be repaired. 
When I'm with her I only think of you. 
She's a hopeless drem, but what can I do? 
It's not about learning to let go, 
it's getting in touch with what I used to know.

(Chorus) 
I can't see myself loving no one else other than yourself. 



No One Else

Three amps on a stage, three prongs in the wall
Three songs on a page, and three friends play them all
And we're bringing the funk while we're rocking the place
Everyone's getting drunk and we're dancing 'til we fall on our face

I said your labels don't fit us and everybody's out to get us

So motherfucker say no, tell 'em we won't go
Out to the show, la-da-dadada-da
We'll make the units move; a stupid sellout groove
What have we got to prove? Yow!

So let's decompose, or let's break it down
Let's strike a pose, pick our clothes, 'cause you know we're here to make a sound
No let's make a stink; you want to hold your breath
Make 'em think that they hate us, in reality they love us to death.

I said your labels don't fit us and everybody's out to get us

So motherfucker say no, tell 'em we won't go
Out to the show, la-da-dadada-da
We'll make the units move; a stupid sellout groove
What have we got to prove? Yow!

Rant. (Just fucking listen to it)

I said your labels don't fit us and everybody's out to get us

So motherfucker say no, tell 'em we won't go
Out to the show, la-da-dadada-da
We'll make the units move; a stupid sellout groove
What have we got to prove? Yow!
So motherfucker say no, tell 'em we won't go
Out to the show, la-da-dadada-da
We'll make the units move; a stupid sellout groove
What have we got to prove? 
La-da-dadada-da
La-da-dadada-da
La-da-dadada-da
La-da-dada

Stupid Sellout Groove

You and I 
can lay in the sun and die
The end is nigh
and we have never felt so high
Laugh and cry
and sigh a bitter sweet goodbye
Our hands are tied
the sky is burning out my eyes

(Chorus)
The only time we feel the breeze
(The only time we feel the breeze)
Is when we're falling through the trees
(Is when we're falling through the trees)And now it's coming to an end
(And now it's coming to an end)
from the human disease

Me and you
ask what are we supposed to do?
The trees that grew
are swallowed by the blue

(Chorus)

We've arrived
terrified but still alive
no chance to survive
so prepare to take the dive

(Chorus)

The Human Disease

I found a shred of hope 
In the darkest place I looked
I'll show you what I've found
I'll take you to the light of day
It's bright there, shining
And people are smiling
And we're safe here
So stop and wipe your tears

Don't fall apart
Look to your heart
Just know you're right
And know you're wrong
But don't forget to start
To Start living.

You don't have to run away
You can just be your self
Stand tall and taller all the time
And be happy knowing that you're not alone
I said it's always not never
Not worse, it's better
It's better than this, it's better than that
But no one here is better than you

The night is quiet
And our windows are open
The breeze whispers to us all
It tells us what we want to hear
So I'll listen closely
But I'll follow my own path
Because it's nice here
But I want to be my own man

Don't fall apart
Hold yourself together
Stay strong, be strong, be you
And I fell apart
Think I need a jump start



Jump Start

A bunch of crunchy guitars and synths from some krum in the swamps of Houston.
