"A Play a Day"
Lyrics and music: Thaís and Ana Merino

Some words to say
Not even one is said
Don't look at me
It might become too bad 

Chills in, breathe out, maybe it's time to run out 
Maybe it is

In a way
Reminds me of the past
Why don't you leave? 
And lay here just the best

Chills in, breathe out, maybe it's time to run out
Maybe it is time

I feel like waiting for the last scene
For a green screen
Switching all the backgrounds
I feel like waiting for the last scene
Before I could scream
Baby, it's time to go

The easy days
Will come it up for sure
The hardest ones 
Oh, they scare me, Lord!

Chills in, breathe out, maybe it's time to run out 
Maybe it is

This silence can't be quiet, you know
There's more running inside and it's supposed to go
Shyness overload, stubborn on the road

A pray a day and I'll let it show
A pray a day and I'll let it flow
A pray a day and I'll let it show
A play a day and I'll let it grow
A play a day and I'll let it grow
A play a day

A Play a Day (Making Lemonade)

Continuing the trend of compositions featuring mallets, though this time the mallet instrument gets to be part of an ensemble (and a longer song)

The Wrong Birds

A Pill-Sized Piece

Inspired by the poem "Murió al amanecer" or "He died at Dawn" by Federico Garcia Lorca which ends:

"Four moons in the night
and one lonely tree.
On the point of a pin
my love spins."
_______________________________________________________________________


The great expanse
The final dance
I found the time
But she was gone

Fish go round and round
Jumping in the pond
Nature doesn't mind us or respond

And when we cry for mercy She laughs
We're falling off the point of a pin

So grant me time (grant these things)
To learn the finer things 
(to know in life)
I grab surprises
To drive me on

Joy and pleasures mount in drains
You and me and all the right ways
Round and round we go

Please
Please
Please...wait

Wait Please

Two powerful words in the English language that embrace both regret of missed opportunity, and all the possibilities that life has to offer, and maybe even beyond this life...What if?  Closer to home;  "what if" I used two different guitars for this track, how would it sound?  You be the judge, but I hope you like it:)

What If...

A demo of a collab with a bunch of genial wierdos in Berlin, with help from the amazing producer and bassplayer Kalle Enkelmann. 60’s Tarantino feel.
Close your Eyes and let me in, Melodie Für Barbara, the imaginal secret love of my Life.

She Made Me - Half Blind Lucy

Drink until we sink
like the bottles
we live on

Singing to the moon 
we are half lights
waiting to form

And we rise to the world
headstrong

Calling out the clouds
spill the oceans
we adorn

Sunken ships adrift
on the water
we sail on

And we rise to the world
Head on
And we rise to the world

Feathers in the storm
Feathers in the storm
like feathers in the storm
(People hold on)

Sunken ships adrift on the water
we
will
come
home

sunken ships

Sexy Girl

“Love My Baby”

Met her tending bar the other night
She tends her bar like a stoic might
All the girls are jealous ‘cause she got all the height
And the boys all sulk ‘cause she won’t give ‘em time
But she don’t even look

With her hair pulled back
And her sleeves rolled up
And that smile she cracks
Like a scarlet cup
If beauty’s a trap
My heart’s locked up
In her

She’s got a skeptic’s eyes
That see through bone
A pneumatic style
Like rock’n’roll
When she mix her drinks
She stirs my soul
Oh-oo!

I love my baby, she’s the only one (x 3)
I love her (x 4)
I love my baby, she’s the only one (x 3)

Followed her out into the alleyway
Where she smoked her cig in a glow so fey
I couldn’t think of a word to say
So I stood there puffing like a heated stray
So lame...
But finally she deigned look at me
And her eyes glowed cool like a neon marquee
And my body a-buzz like a hive of bees
I passed the fuck out in a syncope

I love my baby, she’s the only one (x 3)
I love her (x 4)
I love my baby, she’s the only one (x 3)

When I came to
She held my hand
Said, “You don’t worry,
I caught you, man.”
I said, “I ain’t worried,
This’s all part of my master plan.”
And she laughed

I love my baby, she’s the only one (x 3)
I love her (x 4)
I love my baby, she’s the only one (x 3)

So she called me a cab
And I got her number
So I ain’t ashamed
And I’ll call her tomorrow
Soon as I (can) remember
What the hell was her name
