Send Me No Letters

Tim Kelly - Kind Of Look

Yes I Will

Lyrics:

I dreamt of a wondrous algorithm
Simple and elegant and clean
And when I woke
I felt that God had spoken
Had shown me how I should lead my life

In O(n) it solved the halting problem
It passed the Turing Test
I saw I had been blessed
To witness our creator's code
Direct child of the one root node
I kissed the Earth and wept
To see the CPU load

Oh, sister, have you heard the good word?
Our great return has been assured
The latest version
Fully optimized with tail-recursion
Your life is only but a chemical reaction
So let yourself become a part of the abstraction

A Wondrous Algorithm

Lyrics:

If I weren't a pacifist
And you didn't carry a gun
I'd probably have to beat the shit out of you
You're a douchebag (quite incontrovertibly)
Yeah, you're a douchebag (capital "D")

You treat these women like your property
And when they try to
Quit your toxic game
You just convince them that they're crazy

And if you wouldn't sue me
I would probably put your name in this song
But I don't trust you, so you're just an anonymous asshole (I really hate to break it to you)
Yeah, you're an asshole (the issue is you)

Don't get bogged down in all those feelings other people live with
You stand to gain from their inclining toward forgiveness

And this is not a threat, I won't do anything to you
But mine are eyes that won't be wet if you should get
What's coming to you...


So take what you can get
Behind your mask you're lookin' human to me
Don't let the light in or the people will see
You're a vampire
Yeah, you're malignant
Yeah, you're a douchebag

Somebody Had to Say It

Fried And Afraid(2)

This is a tough one for me.  In memory of my daughter, Deborah, oh how we miss her!  I included this song in a video clip for her 31st birthday on Jul 23.

Always

Over all the years Mattyboy's been around, I've piled music onto my hard drive. It was verses without choruses, instrumentals with no melody in mind, disembodied ideas that resisted attempts to convert them to full songs. Lyrics in the same way.

Every time I would open my DAW, I encountered the same hundred or so dusty ghosts, and starting a new project felt like throwing more poopie on the pile (consider this your lyrical rude language warning). But how do I get rid of them? I couldn't release them individually, they simply aren't good enough alone. And I couldn't just throw them away!

Well, OK, I threw SOME of them away :)

Anyway, the project is called "Angst".

As the title suggests, the lyricals are frequently and predictably dark, brooding, and self-absorbed, and the vocals were recorded in a somewhat rushed fashion, so the cringe-averse may want to skip straight to the instrumental version.

It is the amalgamation of these fragments into one unrelenting mass of half-cocked musical ideas paired with even less-cocked lyrical snippets. It's intended as one long song, not that I would feel bad if someone wanted to slice it up for themselves :)


Angst

Something about Autumn-the crisp cooling weather-skies seems clearer--shedding leaves just before the cold winter--the crops have all been harvested-- for me, it seems a little  slower and more  peaceful--natural process of nature and life--my mind feel more at ease--my body feels more relax--my favorite time of year

Fall (Favorite Time Of Year)

I record, write, and play all the instruments on these demos. Some get thrown out and some get recorded with friends who play drums better than me! Enjoy!

Yes I Will
