Bouncy but brooding, Psychic Prejudice is Kai Lavatai's account of this world's descent into what can only be labeled an underworld. Beware: The invoker of this record manifests twelve confrontational confections, each telling an infernal truth. No guarantees the truths won't hurt. No guarantees of enchantment one way or another.

Your impression on my sheets
Leaves the shape of an Indian chief
The crop circle left behind
The silhouette frozen in time

So many things I feel the need to tell you
That don't concern you at all
The the shape that you left my place in
No excuse but that's the way I've been feeling

Indian chief captured by the forces of night
Indian chief rushing like a train
Indian chief call me like an ancestor
Indian chief dance me down like rain

Hit me up in my dreams on the waves
Meet me at the colonnade in the astral plane
In the end I know we're connected
Kind of scary when I look back and see your face

In tomorrow's time everything will change
All I know I can't stop the good times
So all I can do is manage to slow it down
All I know there's no keeping you from leaving
So all I can do is enjoy this time we have
But you leave an impression / You leave something behind

At the end of a line you just keep on crying
I keep hearing you weep like a nursery rhyme
You keep on repeating slogans in the street

There's gonna disrespect and all of that
Wishing for carnage by the end of the night
Don't breath in, don't make a move

There's gonna be blood by the end of the night
The blood of the enemy running, running
Visions become reality in time

Prepare for the hail storm
Prepare for a really fun time tonight
Like a natural force

Prepare to get physical
Don't take it personal
Prepare for a full mag dump

Oh darling this ain't rehearsal
The house is full everyone's in attendance
Curtains drawn and the lights say it's show time
Take your mark and decide your fate

When you cry it's a lie / Attention's what you seek
Let me give you a reason like a full magazine
Full of charges / You know what I mean

They say reaction / We revolt
The satisfaction defies their stupid slogans

I never meant no harm
Just wanted to have a little fun
I never set out to twist anybody's arm

Nobody spiked the punch
I never got anybody drunk
They came over to my place on their own accord

But they're calling me Violence
Just because I like to dance with somebody
With somebody rocking in my arms

I didn't start this mess
I ain't the one who chose that dress
As if they don't speak in secret codes

Just a twist of lime in some soda pop
Makes the panties drop like at tranny hop
Innocent until proven guilty
Guilty ain't so bad when you boogie down

Homecoming Court

Some of you may have noticed in the last four years that I have put up original songs - which I usually leave free for download - on this page. It's been some time since I've gone out of my way to polish a piece up, lyrics and all, but thinking about doing that again dries my throat right out; getting from point A to point hey-we-actually-have-a-song-here is one hell of a process and one I have not been able to confidently immerse myself in. But here I have some instrumental pieces that have collected in the dark corners of my laptop - things I would begin out of a small imagined phrase or guitar riff, a motif on my parents' piano on a Sunday afternoon. After some brooding, gestating (where I'm up still at 3 in the morning with rings around my eyes) the piece would end up as one of these eight.

With this release of demo tracks I'm also saying I'm moving forward. There are only so many of these things that I can accumulate, wondering if they're any good or worth working with. It becomes this never ending process of tinkering, listening (a week later), shelving, rediscovering, rinse, wash, repeat. After a time, there's only so much you can keep trying to do with one idea, and here's where I've let the music rest - let the doubting stop.

I've been caught up. Here's what that sounds like.

learning to fly

And nothing can we call our own but death
And that small model of the barren earth
Which serves as paste and cover to our bones.
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground
And tell sad stories of the death of kings;
How some have been deposed; some slain in war,
Some haunted by the ghosts they have deposed;
Some poison'd by their wives: some sleeping kill'd;
All murder'd: for within the hollow crown
That rounds the mortal temples of a king
Keeps Death his court and there the antic sits,
Scoffing his state and grinning at his pomp,
Allowing him a breath, a little scene,

The golden and the green

The Future

All Music & Programming by John Baker
All Lyrics written and performed by Kenny Dyer
Lead Guitar by Nils K

I recently lost a pet that really really hurt down deep. She meant the world to me even though I didn't admit it. At the end, seeing her laying on that table and myself aware of what was coming, tore me up beyond words. 

I wrote this song in remembrance of her for all the joy she brought me over the years I had her. Kenny penned a really nice set of words that hold true. My hopes are that this touches and maybe even helps with the pain, for anyone who has recently lost something or someone and are having a hard time dealing with it.

Time (feat Kenny Dyer on vox & Nils K on lead guitar)

My illusion, my mistake

Again I dwelled on dreams
And nothing ever turns out as it seemed at first -
like in a curse.
My heart was hungry and so I took the bait.
My illusion, my mistake.

Again I sat and grieved.
Your words had made a dreamer out of me,
I thought so foolishly.
I didn‘t think my heart was gonna break.
My illusion, my mistake.

It hurts when you know 
you have to let it go.
But you want the impossible to happen
Say it isn‘t so.
I don‘t want to let it go.
Don‘t tell me it‘s impossible...

All these words,
how they bleed 
onto the paper infront of me.
But they don’t express what I would like to say.
Unable to sleep, at night I lie awake.
My illusionn, my mistake. 

It sucks when you know
you need to let it go.
But you hope the impossible will happen
Say it isn‘t so.
I don‘t want to let it go.
Don‘t tell me it‘s impossible...

To some
chasing a dream 
might feel contemptible,
It may appear absurd
The most exciting tunes I know are 
melodies that I‘ve never heard.
Let‘s think we‘re growing wings
as we‘re falling from the sky like birds.
Unperturbed.
Superb. 

It still hurts,
It still bleeds,
And It doesn‘t seem to heal.
All my fantasies have turned into aches. 
No, no, no, no, no
I thought that our souls were bound by fate.
My illusiom, my mistake.

my illusion, my mistake

OFF or On Fucking Fire...

I saw John Oliver's Last Week Tonight with  Bill Nye's impassioned plea for the environment.  The mention of 4-8 degrees is scary and in the days and weeks following.. I found it difficult to shake the words.  

It's a game changer for humanity..as an artist all I can offer is my music. To provide the canvas on which their words may be painted in a new and different way.  I found some of Bill's friends to help him drive the point home.  I hope you enjoy it!

Vocals:

On Fucking Fire

O.F.F.

My entry for Amanda Palmers songwriting competition. 

Lyrics:
You failed us
you robbed us
you trapped us
you left us in darkness

you have become unto us
a deciever
you put darkness upon us
for years and years 
and hours and hours

what kind of power is this?
what kind of failure is this? 
what kind of bargain is this? 
what kind of devil keeps us in darkness? 
(x2)

we did this
we placed out hopes in a flawed, flawed system
we broke this
we had the power, 
but left only with failure
(x2)

What kind of power is this? 
what kind of failure is this? 
what kind of bargain is this? 
What kind of devil keeps us in darkness?

Power Failure

From our second album, Interesting Times.

The American Circus

Silicon-breasted, botoxed cougars
The bronzed, cock-sure men who schmooze them
The bum who bleeds a dime from both
And the junkie who mugs them all for coke

And the banker revving up his Jag
To mock the newly-bankrupt hag
Who corrals in bags her thirteen cats—
Another meme for the Internets!

And don’t forget their forgotten youths
The hipsters who make cool uncouth
Starving artists with change for drugs
All activists so woke and smug

The viral trolls so woke and smug
All activists so woke and smug
The cyber stars with trending plugs
The cyber stars so rich and smug

Woo-hoo!

Here at the American Circus
Admission’s always free
Thanks in part to taxpayer funds
And grants from the Treasury
We’ll keep open borders all year long—
We’ll never discriminate—
Until the time the freaks grow old
Or grow up and move away!

Pedophiles and cultish preachers
Fight to death rabid feministas
While cowed and bent and dressed in rags
The Shame Parade gets scorned and wagged (/scragged; /gagged)

And politicians with practiced smiles
Sway gawking crowds with open guile
As snowflakes whine (/fall) and huff and puff—
Freedom is never free enough!


In the main tent, center ring
Lady Liberty prepares to sing
A remix of the Stars and Stripes
With lyrics of pop-studded tripe!

Yahoo!

Here at the American Circus
Deviants are the norm
We pass no judgments on their talents—
It’s their politics we deplore!
So if you’re in or out of town
Just shake your fist and come right down
To the place where everything happening is—
Bring your enemies!
Bring your friends!
Bring the (/your) kids!

And don’t forget your stones and bricks (/sticks)!
And don’t forget your selfie-sticks!
And don’t forget your politics!

This is where my latest idea took me.  A bit of a message in the lyrics. 
 Not sure what genre it is, but was pretty cool to do.  Always a challenge to do something different and most certainly quite rewarding.  Hope you enjoy it.

Planet in Peril

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
And make it right,
Fix what’s wrong,

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Disgrace and guilt,
The time to act has come.  

The decline of the Earth’s natural life-support systems,
So many species threatened
Habitats neglected and destroyed.
Freshwater resources being depleted or polluted. 
The human footprint so large leaving little space for anything else.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Accept our crime,
Give life a chance

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Change some habits
Give the planet, it’s right.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Stop the abuse,
Sow seeds of life.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Hand in hand,
We can make it change.

Natural ecosystems have lost half their area.
Rain forests desiccating into savannahs
A million species at risk of extinction
All largely a result of human actions
Nature is being destroyed at hundreds of times higher than the average over the past 10m years 

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Return the gift,
This planet earth.

What’s it gonna be,
Will we blame the past,
Or take a stance,
Only time will tell,
If we did enough

Hi All,

a song we both did a while ago and has been pending, i thought to put it out inthe month of love caz it talks about the love. the love of Jesus which washed us from the pain we had. 

hope you like it. :)

Lyrics - 

Rain – wash over me
Rain – wash over the one I love

Ease the pain - inside
as the sounds of all – that I pass
filter through dulled senses
filters through my thoughts…

I feel your heart it pulls me closer
I feel your heart it pulls me closer to you
Oh closer
I know the same rain that falls down on me
Is the same rain that falls down on you
Can you feel me?
I can’t stop walking

I feel the water move

I can’t stop walking
I must find you
I can’t stop walking
I must find you
No downpour can stop me now
No downpour can stop me now

I remember how your eyes looked
Like pools of pain
As I watched the tears
Rolling down your face
Won’t you believe me?
You misunderstood
My words
I meant them all for good

I meant them all for good
I meant them – for good – for good

Though it is warm outside - I feel the chill on my skin
The wind it blows in my mind
Why did I speak those words?
Oh, please hear me
I didn’t want your hurt
I didn’t mean to cause - the pain
Please let me explain my words
The words

I pull my hood down over my face
Close my eyes as the downpour fades
Into a drizzle, soaking everything
Slowly soaking into me
What I said so wrong
Why you fled so long

Oh believe me
And let this rain wash though
And cleanse the pain
Know my heart is true
Feel me
Look into my eyes and remember who I am
Remember
I’m the one you love
The one you love

I can’t stop walking
I must find you
I can’t stop walking
I must find you
No downpour can stop me now
No downpour can stop me now

I can’t stop walking
Wandering in the rain
I must find you
I can’t stop walking
I must find you

LYRICS
I don't need to beg

You think you can put me down and get the best of me

Look me in the eye and tell me what you see

Your mistake was to put me in a blindspot

So you aim to divide and conquer

Your power makes you the blindest, not the strongest

Your mistake was to think we're the weak ones

Feeding lies

Ruining lifes

We'll uprise from your blindspot

Blindspot (feat. EileenNoise)

Harder I Fall  -  Andy Nagle💀

Our imagination and fantasies always exceed reality. So the best love affair is the one you've never had. It seems to be our human dilemma that we're constantly chasing dreams which will forever remain unfulfilled. But music can give these notions a form and make them come alive. As a singer & songwriter I am attempting to capture these moments. Currently I'm based in Shanghai, China, where I've been involved in several RocknRoll-projects. Enjoy my songs and please leave a comment. Cheers!

my illusion, my mistake
