The Mysterious Decibel - Grand Hump of Niagara

Lyrics, instrumental, Vocals, Sounds, mix, song structure - The Mysterious Decibel

Lyrics:

Towering over the city of Niagara
Billowing up to the sky
Our growing hill of Microsoft
But this one hails the flies
Ground control to major stench
Our guts are wrenched in the city of plea
Feed the tumor
Watch it grow
So high, any god above will know

Look in the horizon
I can't see the sun
Unholy hump of one
A million tons

The falls spits down with the raging waters
The hump is rising and so are its daughters
Dump truck convoy never sleeps
While the noses gently weep
The scent of the demon's morning queef
Sulfur and eggs with a hint of grief 
So come on down if you feel alive to the base of the grand hump of Niagara!

Grand Hump Of Niagara

The Mysterious Decibel - Field of The Skin Leaf

🪦෴In Honor of Halloween෴🎃

Lyrics, instrumental, Vocals, Sounds, mix, song structure - The Mysterious Decibel

Lyrics:

A strange sensation swallows the Autumn air drenched and filled with sin
But not to one man he lived discreetly, It was very pleasant to him
Now you don't want to know what goes on here, It's a wickedness to mankind
If you wanna take a peak in the depths of the insanity, Nature and being are truly combined
BEWARE! BEWARE BEWARE! The torture
That goes on down there!
By the time It's all over the victims will barely have any skin left to spare.
Labeled many names the man was evil Incarnate,
The epidermis monster, The skin shedder, The crimson skin, Skin thief
That's because when he slashes all the skin from your bones, He smiles and adds it to the field of the skin leaf

The field of the skin leaf
The field of the skin leaf
The field of the skin leaf
The field of the skin leaf

A killer like no other 
Crafting his skin leaves for his playground
Beware! Beware!

Attached to some of the leaves there were veins and all
Rearranged to look exactly like the leaves that fall
You see this process takes him all day and night
He must make sure that every leaf is just right
And when it's all said and and done he frolics through his field
Of his beloved skin leaf so he can feel healed
When he was young his childhood was despair
Could never have no fun or joy or wander with no care
Now he calls his field his special home
Acres and acres of the human genome
As the body count grows larger with every day
More skin leaf piles for him to play
If you stumble onto this piece of hell
You might run out of luck but I'll wish you well
So just remember as you look ahead
You better look out for the man who plays in the piles of the dead

Gimme your skin
Give it to me
From your feet to your chin
Gimme your skin
I don't care if your fat or thin
I gotta have your skin
or my mind will spin
On the Merry-go-round
With needles and pins yeah!

Enter my lair
I will have your skin
I will have your skin for my pleasure

Lyrics:
Joey held the bottle upside down
Squeezed it and the smile turned to frown

It was the ketchup precum! 
Once a delicacy grilled under the sun
and now a wet hot dog between a soggy bun

Oh yeah ketchup pre cum
That's what you get when you don't shake before you squeeze

I didn't really fancy any discolored water with my meal tonight
I was really looking forward to those tater tots, Before I took a bite
A magnificent meal that was shattered by one squirt
A puddle that stares me in the face from the plate 
Left me in a world of hurt

Ketchup yeah!
Precum No!

My Burgers!
My fries!
One squirt could meet the demise of the food that I eat

You don't want
You don't want
You don't want
You don't want
The ketchup precum No no no!
You don't want it slaughtering your plate
It's a liquid that everyone hates
Don't you know that no one wants to deal with the dreaded ketchup precum

Lyrics:

Oh fuck, I'm a brain
A brain in a jar
A few more tools and an open lab coat and shit gets real bizarre
Born from the DNA from a crusty loogie in a café?
Was i carved from a scholar who flushed his organs out on broadway?

I'm just a brain
Trying to find his roots
Where will I go and when will I know?
The fresh fruits or the bottom of the boots 
Whoo!

I'm just a brain
Trying to find his roots
Where will I go and when will I know?
The fresh fruits or the bottom of the boots

Lyrics:

All grows dim, time is winding down
My cheeks stay hovered over a puddle of brown
The voices outside of this cramped little box
These choices i've made to breed these cramped up blocks

The shit bubbles burst and trap all the flies
A concoction so twisted, Only someone like Bill Nye
Can decipher all these lies
Can scythe all of these cries
as this pit of stench boils in the middle of July

Out there the souls, eager for pressure to burst
Through their minds like a submarine tank submersed
Parades gather in the grass for the show to start
While these waves slowly rip my brain apart

A wetness caresses my hang lo mein
This water is rising am I going insane?
It tickles my demons but it feels so ripe
There's always a bit of shit at the end of the pipe!

I'm in a fecal position where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
Where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
The slimy hand of stench, Pulls me right down
In a puddle of madness, many shades of brown
NO NO NO NO NOOO!
Get a little taste of the waste in the swamp!

Lyrics:

If wishes came true, I would never tell you
All the wishes I made when the candle blew
As the time flew

Those years go through and through
Cake candles turn to bottles of booze
But the ship inside has sunk
And the genie that turns the wheel is drunk

We're going down
You're going down to the bottom of the barrel where these wishes go

Genie in this object
Wake up and cast effect
Wishes blow with each breath
Our past still shows each wishful death

We're going down
You're going down to the bottom of the barrel where these wishes go

Genie in this object
Wake up and cast effect
Wishes blow with each breath
Our past still shows each wishful death

Lyrics:

What's that in your hand, is it an alien whistle?
Might perk ya right up like a brush full of bristles
Down here they call this the hit of the wizzle
Sunny side up, come get a bit of the sizzle

Aunt Mary's crystals send you right up
Send you right up
Send you right up
Top the morning off with that OJ Cup
And the searing pancakes with Aunt Jemima's syrup

The dash of the green is a vivid scene
It's what crumbles all the charm up with the obscene 
HIGHdeas take the roundabout
Distract the spaces where there used to be doubt
Getting' down hot and frisky with the THC
Come on in my receptors and stimulate me
If the air was smoked kush, Ooo that'd be just fine
I wish the reef could make all the planets align. 

4/20 and for once I'm feeling free
Lightyears in my head, but I'm just a flea
In the universe
In the universe

4/20 and for once I'm feeling free
Lightyears in my head, but I'm just a flea

Vocals mastered by: Mark McClellan

Lyrics:

I'm staring, My eyes tearing through the night as I rest my head
Trying to forget what reveals itself in the light above my bed

Face the spider parallel on the ceiling
To maybe change my perception of feeling
Maybe if i stare so long
it'll become so numb
just trying to overcome
Might not need a chase of rum
Or even a hit to make me dumb

The dreaded fear that's above my head
Like the cover of a book that is barely read
Every eye, every leg, It's own demon
Should I flush it all away with the spray of my semen?

Just close your eyes
Move on closer
Open wide
Take a bite
Accept the sin
swallow it down
Take the monsters in
And turn them around

Facing Fears

Lyrics:

The yellow on these walls are only getting more vivid
The stench of piss and squid that cuts the air like new Madrid
I'm flying in on that Mary Poppins shit
Throwing salt up in the wounds like Mr. Clean without a slip in the slit
I'm riding in on that grade A frizzle shit
Animated with the magic on this bus I sit
But every seat is just a blur of what will occur
I'm Cuckoo for the coco Sonny losing all his fur 

Sitting down on that stoop kid won't leave shit
Two feet one place no face I'm here to conceive it
Umbilical cords slop on down to the floor
And birth the only things that I was put here for
I'm playing jump rope
I'm leap frogging
Go get the Zzzquil
And stop the clogging
All of these embryonic spawns I stay aborting
But they keep on keep on popping out and distorting

I'm playing fiddles with Big mama succubus
She's got all those riddles that'll pull you down in the abyss
Playing fiddles with Big mama succubus
She's got all those riddles that'll pull you down to the abyss

neuropathy or am I just brainless?
Is it addiction or an inflamed meatus?
frolicking through distractions with just a fetus
A fetus deformed and left with such a thesis
It screams from the soreness and the abandonment
The one  that didn't make the blueprint
The breath didn't take the mint
Now just dead eyes that evolved from the Squint

I'm playing fiddles with Big mama succubus
She's got all those riddles that'll pull you down in the abyss
Playing fiddles with Big mama succubus
She's got all those riddles that'll pull you down to the abyss

I'm playing fiddles with Big mama succubus
She's got all those riddles that'll pull you down in the abyss
Playing fiddles with Big mama succubus
She's got all those riddles that'll pull you down to the abyss

Big mama succubus
Swirls of defeat and Emptiness
Big mama succubus
Cheeks on your chest with a soul's kiss

Mysterious Decibel--@themysteriousdecibel - lyrics and vocals

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman–Stephen–foundational guitar in first half, solo in the coda, mix, and production

J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell– piano and composition

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara–Ken–drums, percussion, and background vocals

Llanpsych–@llanpsych–Tez–guitar solo and fills in the main section

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–mandolin, four string fretless bass guitar

This latest Eclectic Collective song was probably the most collaborative in a true sense as we've yet released. The song began with Josh trying to piece together a couple of ideas that he'd come up with on the piano. He sent his ideas to JJ, who took out a connecter section that Josh had no intention of making anything of, and turned it into the body of the song. He returned the song to Josh complete with a signature JJ Terrell climactic coda. Then Josh added the bass to JJ's piano, with some help from the always solid drums from Ken. The way it usually goes is that Josh comes up with a scratch bass line to accompany the song, then Ken adds drums, then Josh goes back and adds the bass to fit the beat. Sometimes they go back and forth, but not this time so much.

Then, Stephen added the foundational guitar in the first section, and came up with the idea for the coda. Josh added some mandolin to the coda, too, after which Stephen redid the guitar in the coda to make it very dynamic and part the clouds. Tez finally came along and added the fiery solo and the charming fills in the main section. Most of this time, MD had been working on the narrative lyrics and refining his melodic vocals. Finally, Stephen put it all together for us and mixed it in his expert fashion.

We hope you enjoy the thrill of the climax, and also get a chuckle out of the lyrics, which are included below.

Let me tell you 'bout a dancer yeah!
A mysterious one
She dances to the decibel
She's a A shape shifter from the stars
She doesn't cast no shadow
The light makes things bizarre
She'll mold a new soul in you
And get your grandmother too
She'll bleed you from afar

It's an Early time and a late night
On a mothership deep in flight
Yeah!
It's an Early time and a late night
When the grays are seeing white!

Yeah, you know what I'm talkin' about

Oh baby you caught me off guard I think it's gonna be a early time and a Late night

Hubba bubba max
Hubble space snacks
I'm playing galaga
Waiting for climax
It didn't take long
A few setbacks

One and done in the black hole
With the Shape shifting of my gun
The time was short but the blast quaked
It was all over before it begun
The frown Came over her like a storm cloud dropping down torrential rain
The frown came over me some time later when the little fetus from Mars slopped onto the terrain

It's an Early time and a late night
On a mothership deep in flight
It's an Early time and a late night
When the grays are seeing white

{Get that thing away from me
Stay on your home planet}

Just One minute altered my universe
My reputation outside of the earth
Flys away in a hearse
Now I'm just the minute man of the cosmos
With an infant out there somewhere they call him... space Frankenstein that's what she knows

It's an Early time and a late night
On a mothership deep in flight
It's an Early time and a late night
When the grays are seeing white

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass guitar, lap steel

This was brought to us by Mark, who had written it a while back, but wanted to dust it off and give the Eclectic Collective a shot at it. He recorded it with a keen eye toward collaboration with an electric piano synth with heavy stereo tremolo. We just recently found Mark, and he has proven to be a very creative, passionate, and easy to work with collaborator—all the good things.
Mark set it loose to me first, and I, of course, got Ken in on the act before anything else could transpire. After Ken added his wildly creative, very skillful drum beat, I was able to come up with a suitable bass line. I also came up with the lap slide part you hear with the heavy tremolo. Then we turned it over to Stephen, who added a very psychedelic, electrifying solo at the end. Also, JJ set upon it with a very hooky organ.
Last, but certainly not least, MD came up with the lyrics, which are a metaphor for trying to break into the business of music, and delivered them with his fiery vocals, too. Then, we all realized that the song wasn't long enough for our ambitions, so Ken came up with an idea for the arrangement, and lengthened the song to suit our needs. He also very ably mixed and produced this one for us. We had a lot of fun working on Mark's tune. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics (by The Mysterious Decibel):

Sometimes when we shout they can't hear us under the flow
Of the rapids

I'm screaming from the other side of the river
A shot to try
can you hear me?
I'm jumping in and swimming straight to you

All I can say is I tried
I tried and I met my own waterfall
A short way down
Did I try hard enough?
Cuz I hit the rocks below just hard enough
To hibernate me without a care
It's all just business and never fair

Lyrics:

Smokin' around the Christmas tree
It's a Christmas coughity cough
Mistletoe hung where you can see
That smoke begin to lift off
Smokin' around the Christmas tree
Ohhh let that spirit ring
Later I'll have some ham and pie and cough up everything!

You will get a detrimental feeling when you hear
Coughing, hacking, choking by the tree
Sounds like Krampus is croaking

Smokin around the Christmas tree have a nicotine holiday
I look right behind there's a fiery heat
It's a Cigarette Christmas doomsday

Smokin around the Christmas tree have a nicotine holiday
I look right behind there's a fiery heat 
It's a cigarette Christmas doomsday!

You will get a detrimental feeling when you hear
Coughing, hacking, choking by the tree
Sounds like Krampus is croaking

Smokin' around the Christmas tree have a nicotine holiday
Giving my lungs a jolly puff In the New old fashioned way

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, lyrics, and vocals at the end
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–five-string fretless bass

This song began with Terry sharing an intriguing Eastern sounding synth and minimal beat with Ken, who added a really solid beat to bring out the strong rhythm of the song. Once they had a solid foundation and skeleton, they shared it with the rest of the Eclectic Collective. Josh added his five string fretless bass in a dubby line that was inspired by Tez's hot skank part. Then JJ poured his magic into it, too. Stephen came up with the shocking dynamic lift towards the end, and Tez piled on to light it up. Then MD got a hold of it and wrote and sang some of his trademark, fun lyrics and vocals in the first part of the song. Ken, not to be left out of the melodic experience, added the vocals at the end. 
  After we all had everything in the can, the Texas Tea combo of Stephen and Terry produced and mixed the whole thing down. This wasn't their first rodeo mixing a project together, and it really shows in the end quality. They also have several duo projects up on both of their pages that are worth checking out.  
  We think the end result is reminiscent of Massive Attack and Thievery Corporation, two big influences on a few of us. We all hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics by MD:
Time again and on, and on, and on, we fall in slumber
Dreams never wait
Ashes to ashes we all fall down 
Ooooo Circles break
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
When we wake
When we wake
Is this a new Simulation?
When I wake
When I wake

Feed the fire or the fire flames out

This is a song started when Mark came up with its architecture, recorded in a  slower, more laid back version on his own. However, he wanted a more souped up version with solos in turns. So, he turned to The Eclectic Collective to fill in the pieces. He originally had solos in all the parts which he laid down on the keys, and he had some lyrics, too. However, once he heard The Mysterious Decibel's excellent lyrics and vocals, the song totally changed the direction and the vibe, for the stellar. 

  But MD didn't start the whole thing. As happens sometimes, even without Tez on this one, we still needed to clear out some space to let everyone have their say. So, Mark went in and lengthened the song mechanically. Once we had a final form, Ken, as always, came up with the foundation for the song, allowing Josh to add his version of Mark's bass line. Then, after MD gave us the vocals to form the song, we got down to adding the solos. JJ first added his thrilling opening piano solo, as well as the electric piano solo right after the first verse, which Mark is also playing a VST sax solo in, as well. Then Josh added his guitar solo, which is the first of the two, with a very clean tone. Right after that, Stephen added his fiery solo, which follows right after with a more overdriven tone. Finally, Mark stepped back in and added his killer harp solo at the end. Of course, it needed to be mixed well, too, so we turned to Stephen for that important role, once again, which he fulfilled expertly.  We hope you enjoy this jazzier side of the EC as much as we enjoyed making it. MD's lyrics are about a psycho killer artist who hides clued to his murders in his paintings. 

Original Lyrics by The Mysterious Decibel:

Some might say he's crafty and planned.

With a shade of black and a brush in his hand
Some might say the world is his oyster
But no Pearl lays inside just a conjuring blur

He'll paint you a murderous scene
With the blending of  sin all between pigments of green
He's a shady fella Who hides behind the canvas!
I spy something with my little eye
This art might show just where he died

Will you find it?
The secret
Some freak shit
are you so sure you'll really wanna Keep it ?
The secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?
Ahhh a little secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?
It'll haunt your mind like it does him too
He's a swifty one he'll come for you!
The secret
The secret
The secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?

I spy something with my little eye
This art might show just where he died

His art might show
might show
might show
just where he died

Lyrics:

Mr. Weed man
Do you know who i am?
I'm the one who smoked every last one of your grams
lifted the rug right from under your feet
And when your back hit the floor it took your heartbeat
After that I sat down right in your seat
And Crossed my name out from the top of your sheet
It was time to preheat
it was time to preheat
It was time to preheat
And claim defeat
Because the weed man possesses something sweet
Sweeter than Wonka's everlasting treat
You see the weedman has the rarest strain
One from the toe all the way to the brain
He's stocked
He's bloated
Cut off all his fingers they're coated
In crystalized buds like a Cheeto dust
They'll Make ya green out and cop a bust

Cheech and Chong up in smoke
Beaches and bongs for the toke
Thanks to the Weedman
Smoke the weedman

Cheech and Chong up in smoke
Beaches and bongs for the toke
Thanks to the weedman
The weed man
Yeah

This song actually began more than a year ago, when Ken and I were just sniffing each other out. We'd been working on Zeppelin's Night Flight, for those of you who remember that long ago, and I was having trouble with latency in my recording. Out of frustration, I recorded a really rough version of this, to which Ken put really amazingly perfect drums. Shortly after, I got my recording issues settled and we continued on with Night Flight, shelving this half baked creature for more than a year. But it wasn't forgotten.
In the meantime, I'd been following John Anthony on both YouTube (youtube.com/@johnanthony5720?si=-ooQcUUQaemrk-NH) and on the Cloud. If you were ever curious about how Jimmy Page's fingers looked in the studio, do yourself a favor and check him out on there, too. Since he can play literally every Zep song note for note, I figured I'd ask him if he would replace my pitiful by comparison guitar part with his own. He not only did that in numerous sections, as Page would've, but played the mandolin for it, too. Now, we had a song that was almost ready, but of course we needed someone to fill Plant's part. So, of course we asked The Mysterious Decibel if he'd do the honors, which he came through with in grand fashion.
Now that the song was done, we needed it to be mixed, too. So, we tapped our resident mixing expert, Stephen to do that for us. It was a surprisingly difficult mix to get everyone to agree on. And there were philosophical questions that arose during the mixing process, too. We're very lucky, though, that Stephen is not only an expert producer, but a great teammate as well, with the patience of your favorite high school teacher.
You can even watch a video of us all adding our parts on John's page right here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mdeT8ySZ…owTechniqueCovers
Our hope is that we honored the almighty Led Zeppelin with this one. We hope you all enjoy our reverent tribute to one of our collective favorites as much as we enjoyed putting it together.

God giveth open arms to those who soweth the seed
God giveth the highest levels of prosperity to those that giveth to the creed
Those that feed in the name of Jesus
The riches from their pocket
Will reap the rewards beyond what can even be imagined
In an economic world God commands you to give
So Sow those offerings my friends and brothers
Sow them!
continue to Invest in the kingdom with the righteous word of God!

God can you flip the tables!?
These diamonds are covered in blood
Preacher man in the gospel
Manipulation giveth the flood

I am the ruler of this ministry
My word to the mic, you will all see
Your word to the cross it enriches me
I'll buy another one or two or maybe three

This wolf in sheep's gear bears teeth
Raking in your gold from underneath
What is your offering?
What is your offering?
I pull to you like a puppet with strings

Sow them!
Sow Them!

God can you flip the tables!?
These diamonds are covered in blood
Preacher man in the gospel
Manipulation giveth the flood

Giveth to the gospel
Giveth unto me
In the preacher's pocket
Where your blessings be

Giveth to the gospel

Lyrics:

Do the monsters from the dark dimension tell campfire stories too?
Do the monsters from the realm of unknown make the antagonist out of you?

Sick and Disgusting
Perverted and untrusting
A planet just crusting with parasitical bustings from the wombs of the wicked
We are so addicted
To the madness afflicted
All the way from restricted

Do you even know what crafts a monster that walks on many toes?
Does it go any further than the realms outside the veins of your blood flow?

Do the monsters from the dark dimension tell campfire stories too?
Do the monsters from the realm of unknown make the antagonist out of you?

Who are all the Monsters in all the pages?
We are all the monsters! Let's burn the sages!
Who are all the monsters in all the pages?
We are all the monsters let's burn the sages!

Who are all the monsters?
Who are all the monsters?
Who are all the monsters?
We are all the monsters!

You can't cleanse me
I can't cleanse you
So let's sail the sinful seas
In a little Brittle black canoe

Lyrics:

Daydream in the sun
the night may wield the gun
But I'm over it
Over it!
Can't just let go
Let go like crazy eights
I just wanna close my eyes and count the sheep hopping gates
All the weight is there
Dying on a prayer
The corpse on the wall is me and I'm feeling unaware
Daydream in the sun
The night may wield the gun
But I'm over it
Over it

This pillow has never been colder
Staring my own placeholder
Moonlight spare me darkness
Because what we don't see
What we don't see might be more free than the freefall

Lyrics:

Do you want to hear a lullaby
Fast forward to your last goodbye
I don't wanna make things seem strange
Strange
Cuz there's a phantom in the mirror of these dreams
And I cant  reach inside and pull her from the throne of the regime
The other side might not be what it may seem

What if my dream could take me to the other side of the mirror?
Would I still stare blank right back at me and tell me I'm not there?
Would the silhouette blindly serenade
Or Would the silhouette blindly fade in the glare of all the brighter things?
Not so many Brighter things
Would you see horse flies gallop around sticks of butter?
Or be dealt the reverse card and feel those wings flutter
Butterflies out from the gutter

Every mirror may have its portal
Like Doors to Monsters inc.
Imaginary friends or maybe I need a shrink
But all I can remember is
Honey I didn't shrink those kids
But now all the bees are calling dibs
Or they might be swimming with the squids
where are those kids?
They all look just like me
Where are those kids
Just little bugs rolling in mystery

Lyrics:

Call it embalming 
Cuz I'm walking dead 
With the grease  And the grime that's left unsaid 
Beneath the paint the skeleton shines
Like pickles in the sunlight soaking in brine 
I'm Rick with shades of toxins 
Mortified with parades of boxed sins 
Jake without the finn
Hanks without the Wilson
Sometimes you can't traverse a path alone to begin


Sometimes skeletons don't show other skeletons their skeletons 
Sometimes I get lost and I don't know  just where I've been 
Sometimes skeletons don't show other skeletons their skeletons 
Sometimes I get lost on where to go and what I've been

Loewfii x The Mysterious Decibel - Skeletons

Cast of Characters:
John_Anthony-- @john-anthony-871225464 --guitar, mandolin
The Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel – vocals
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and high harmony on the end vocals
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– banjo, production, and mix
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass, melody and harmony on the end vocals
This song began with John, who is a verifiable expert in all things Jimmy Page, asking Josh and the Eclectic Collective if they'd like to cover another Led Zeppelin song to follow Hey Hey What Can I Do? Of course, the Eclectic collective is always down to sink their teeth into some of the best rock and roll ever made. John found us recordings of the original Zep version that were separated into their individual tracks, so as we were adding, we could hear what our part would've sounded like playing with the original band. What a thrill!
  Ken was first to complete his part, and did a great job of capturing the frenetic energy of Bonzo. John was up soon after, amazing us with a note for note interpretation of Page on both the guitar and mandolin. Josh came next, after nearly deciding that JPS's part was too difficult. It wasn't. Then, when the bulk of the music was recorded, MD came through and stunned us with a brilliant interpretation of Plant's vocals. To bring it to a boil, Stephen then laid down his magical banjo in there, too. Lasty, Ken and Josh polished it off with some background vocals at the end. 
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, who in this case was Stephen. He managed to even it out and get it to sound not only like the album, but very dynamic, as well. 
  This is the EC's second collaboration with John, and we're all stricken by how proficient he is at playing Page's material. If you dig what we did here, you can check out the video, too, right here, of us playing. It's on John's YouTube page, which also contains scores of other favorites from Zep, Floyd, and others. If you are interested in seeing how your favorite Zep tunes were played, it's definitely worth a stroll through and watch.  Here's the link to his page. Also, you can find us doing Hey Hey What Can I Say? on there, too.  https://youtube.com/@johnanthony5720?si=7YqvUXLKkuXT4qjy
  We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

Lyrics:

If the past could eat I'd be it's first course
Theres something on my mind
single digit cravings twisted by design
If you could fly me to fly me to the stars I'd knock them down
The swollen toes of the floating bill back to the ground
We are just the kid who let our balloon slip
Watching it all rise as these burgers flip
We are still down here
Waiting for your descent
We are still down here
But waiting piles on torment
Simple as it was
Good things never last
As Simple as it was
Good things never last
We stand here and wave down at half mast
For succulence in simplicity that's all we ever need

Lyrics:
Used to be nothing
Now I 'am me
Please don't push my buttons
Cause I've been running from the things
That make this real 
And I have had enough
Cause I've been trying 
Not to feel
The consequence of 
Always wanting more of this
And I've been chillin all day
Let them pave the way
So I might as well wait 
Two feet in the grave
Four blunts to the face
Six shots and I'm awake

When you read this
I might be gone
I'm feeling how you feel
When enough is enough 
Fear, pain, rage 
And no love
I miss the good old days 
With the sex and the drugs
I'd like to be rich
I could have some money 
Put some gold on my wrist
I got a bullet that will 
Make me a myth
But not before
I play your screams like a riff

Lyrics:
stop motion seems like it's haunted
seems right but feels like it's daunting 
vacations not what I wanted
I don't need to get away
the distance is dawning 
this moment is raw yet two sided
I'm blue but a abiding
because hiding inside is so
very exciting

arise
seven more days till the sky
reddens and covers the light
don't cover your eyes
or sto in the cupboard for they know you hide now
the harder it is the longer you bide time
holding the line
thing in the ruins with muscular vines
twining testicular grapes up the spine
of those who would try
to save us from evil when evils a
I said evils alive
from evil when evils a
I said evils alive

I like to fight

cause it makes me feel better
apart even though we are together

cause it's kind of like forever
one, two, three more times
and I can feel myself grow
will you be my valentine
watch me as I row
across the ocean on a boat
look at the moon
look at the sky
take another fucking flight 
right into your eye

we got cups
trucks
cheap beer
good luck
when we in the barn
we turn up
cause we work hard
and we give no fucks
who the little lady with the short shorts on
do a little spin take them bad boys off
five outta Ten 
but imma take her home yeah
girls out here know how to get down man
remember when the lantern fell
burnt the place down
with the flames of hell
remember when we blamed the horse
now he's glue to hang a memory 
of them at the morgue yeah yeah
I can still smell the smell
and the screams
they echo in unison

Lyrics:
there's a mirror
at the end of the earth
if you look long enough
you can see the truth
there's a lesson
at the end of it all
in a message in a bottle
at the bottom of the waterfall
get it
go get it
good riddance
just kidding 
just go
god as my witness
you better get it
even though I bet my soul
that you end up missing

and it's great to be alive
live another day
take another life
I'm fading out of patience 
and the bandwidth I've been running
has been making me feel latency
change my ways bitch that's not fun
change my ways bitch I wanna die young
but I can't die young
If I don't die soon
cause I'm bout to be 30 
and they call me old dude
call me old dude cause my skin is grey
abuse this body can take
now never will I ever have to lay awake
thinkin bout the things I can never change

Watch out!
I'm the joker card 
Not exactly your saint Bernard
This chemical and me have too much chemistry
But you keep on leaving me
I'm a stalker
You're a teaser
When I find you
You're a pleaser
Stimulation get inside of me 
You're number one
I'm a winner at the count of three

A little bit of this and a little bit of that
would never be too much
We go from STAR to RATS 

OOOOOO I'M FEELING GOOD
WHOOOHOOO JUST LIKE I SHOULD

Dopamine is all I need 
So let me pop that dopa seed!
That Dopamine is all I need
So shoot me right up to speed! 

Dopamine is all I need 
So let me pop that dopa seed!
That Dopamine is all I need
Watch out!
I'm feeling good!

Lyrics: Written, performed, mixed and mastered by The Mysterious Decibel

The brown sounds its own bassline
Breeding Frankenstein
But i've seemed to have crossed the line
Cuz i got a text from the boss
While i'm dropping brown sauce
DROPPIN' BROWN SAUCE

What you doing?
Where you at?
You're on company time
I'm just dropping some sauce is that even a crime!?
Don't you know you gotta slave, don't you know to behave to make your precious dime!

Knock knock 
Who's there?
Open up it's me
You've been in there since half past 3
I'm dropping some sauce do you wanna see?
You're about to be fired on the highest degree!

Couldn't be any hotter than the seat beneath me
Blast beats in the bowl with some Hennessey
Couldn't be any hotter than the rage inside me
That i feel towards you and this company!

Do I really need this? 
I don't need this anymore
I reach down underneath my balls and taint
My hand will become the brush that paints
I rise from the shitter with a vengeful smile
I'll leave my mark, it'll be on file
The knocking won't stop
I think it's time to quit in style

How you gonna fire with a face full of shit!?
How you gonna fire me if I already quit!?
How you gonna fire me with a face full of shit!?
How you gonna fire me if I already quit!?
I'm just gonna fire you with the heat of this hit!
No two week notice just a hand full of shit!
Solidify you died with the scent of a smack
Made your toes lift up and your spine bent back!

Shitty hands, vengeance, Handcuffs and prison cells
I guess that was my final boss but now i shit wherever with no farewells

No farewells
No farewells!

Lyrics: Written, performed, mixed and mastered by The Mysterious Decibel

When this castle crumbles
Toss me with the crumbs
When this castle crumbles
And the rumble drums
I'm jousting with a ghost
The other side of the toast
Now I don't mean to brag
And I don't mean to boast
But I'm Courtney love gone Julius Caesar 
Courtney Love how would you please her?
Would you bury it a few times
Marry  it a few times 
Bury it a few times only for the end of this to take a hit to the face and be buried underneath with no crimes 
Am I spilling my own blood on the right side of my own dime?

My feet are rising off the ground
Where am I going?
We are lost before we are found
When wounds are showing

Killing My Ghost

Lyrics: Written, performed, mixed and mastered by The Mysterious Decibel

Under The graveyard
The bones remain stiff
Grab yourself a corpse
And have yourself a whiff
You got that Flesh juice martini
Intestine beanie
Liver fleshlight wrapped right around ya weenie
Don't get outta control
You'll pay the toll
Grim will chop stick your rectum bootyhole eggroll
You keep on Robbin the grave
you'll be a slave
to the cell walls as you're diddled in your bat cave
The dead of the night flip around like ragdolls
flickering moonlight with the stare of the owls
grave gang unite
Grave gang unite
Harvest all of them bones while they're pearly and white
Richard Dunn we are coming to make things right
All the  Blood sweat and sin will be worth it Tonight
If you take abundant deeds and you turn them around
Do they spit acid when they speak at what made them profound

Grave Robbin
We're Grave Robbin
Pull up to the cemetery head bobbin
We're Grave Robbin
Grave Robbin
While someone sits alone with their head Sobbing
Try to gain a soul that we never had
Giving for the souls that they never had
Grave Robbin
We're Grave Robbin
Pull up to the cemetery head bobbin

Grave Robbin' Head Bobbin'

Lyrics:
there's whispers from outside the tent
to vent
is all I have left
weapons on weapons on deck
these people aren't real
just a means to the end
instant regret
thinking descends into doing 
and doing is what I resent
they know my secret
now it dies with them

so fat over there like a pear
with a face so ugly and I bet you don't care
bout the way that they stare 
when you come into town
and your underwear are brown 
kinda wish you were dead
if you ever get married then
I hope that she dies
when you cry 
cause your face turns red
at the funeral they said
that you were sleeping with your dad
and the baby they had
came out and it was black
grabbed his chest and had a little heart attack
your mom dies in side at the sight of that
then you got home and you found out
that your cat ran away
the cancer decided 
to make its way to the brain

It Dies With Them

Lyrics: Written, performed, mixed and mastered by The Mysterious Decibel

I wanna kiss you but our lips are so god damn twisted
I wanna touch you but the nerves in my fingers are so damn shot
Wanna hold you but some of it dripped onto my arms while we were screaming
This bond will never melt like our faces when they were both steaming

The acid attack can't corrode our love
The acid attack can't corrode our love
The acid attack can't corrode our love away!
Margaret you are looking very strange but I still will love you the same
You can meet me in the rain as we shout to the sky in vein!

We may be above the clouds of asymmetrical
But baby you still and always will wiggle my testicle
God gave the toddler our clay of life
But you still and always will be the butter to my knife

 The acid attack can't corrode our love
The acid attack can't corrode our love
The acid attack can't corrode our love away!
Margaret you are looking very strange but I still will love you the same
You can meet me in the rain as we shout to the sky in vein!

Meet me at the water where the sun reflects the pools
Meet me at the portal where the gate reflects the ghouls
Because the day and the light,
with the dark and the night,
Are all just Yin and Yang,
Still in bed with the vampires cuz it's the only time they hang

So hurry up and say your vows cuz you might not make it back!
Before it gets dark
Before it gets dark
Put your last pieces in their final place!
Before it gets dark
Before it gets dark

Standing on the line in the middle call me Malcolm 
Branding what's mine a lot of friction give me talcum 
Not enough time
Not enough time

Cuz i just wanna unwind but don't call me a snake
Wanna leave it all behind because the past is mistakes
I just hope i venture somewhere where the sun reflects all across the lakes

So hurry up and say your vows cuz you might not make it back!
Before it gets dark
Before it gets dark
Put your last pieces in their final place!
Before it gets dark
Before it gets dark

Pull yourself together because we might not make it back
Before it gets dark 
Before it gets dark

So hurry up and say your vows cuz you might not make it back!
Before it gets dark
Before it gets dark
Put your last pieces in their final place!
Before it gets dark
Before it gets dark
