With grateful acknowledgments and appreciation to Mr. Cash and the genre of Cowboy Poetry dating back to the 1800s, we submit a ditty about the RvB character Tex.  This tune originally aired on RvB Episode 33.

Lyrics:
Have you heard the story of 
A girl named Beth, now known as Tex 
Her life's tale is a bloody trail 
Her name fits like a glove 

Her daddy sighed as she slammed the door 
She'd said to him I'm Beth no more 
My life's dream is to kill for green 
But first I'll join the Corps 

Her daddy said, you're just a girl
What makes you think that you won't sink
My name is Tex and I'm like a hex
My playground is the world

Basic turned her gun to gold 
Soon had it made, she'd hit by trade 
Amassing kills, she proved her skills 
Make your blood run cold 

I once saw texas at a bar 
Sippin rye, with some apple pie
With a distant stare, like she didn't care 
She said what's with the guitar

I must admit my lips went numb
Some butter bar said, his face all red
She's too good, you're driftin wood
Said boy you'd better run

Texas said sir keep your peace
My heart is free, and so is he
I'll give it to, any man who's true
The safeties were released

He drew before he replied
But Tex was hot, and he was not
He lay dead, While texas bled
Crimson on her side

Yellow of rose of Texas clad in black
Lonely star tattooed upon her back
Double Tex, she'll hit you like a truck
Double Tex and she'll mess you up

Texas said
This could be my last I guess
I gotta go, and now you know
I want a song, to live for long
It's a fair request

Texas made it out I heard
But her one need, I did heed
I think of Beth, while mocking death
Like a mocking bird

A Girl Named Tex

A short piece that was written to accompany a car chase montage in RvB Season 2.  And by car chase, we mean puma chase.  Er, chupacabra chase.  Walrus chase?

Punch It

You're hanging with someone who acts like an alien, you've played too much Space Invaders (Taito version, of course), the lines start getting blurred... 

Lyrics:
It’s time for you to know
Call this an early warning
My late resignation

It seems all systems are go
for this emergency transmission
3....2....1.....zero

You are like a Space Invader
You crippled all my cities
To waste and desolation

You are like a Space Invader
And by your own admission
You’re a human hater

This game is over...

All of the words that you said, were a lie, Invader
Coming down.

Space Invader

It's kind of a Boston hurrah type of song. Not really about booty calls, but more about leafing through your address book while doing shots. Dated, since no one has address books anymore, not ones made of paper anyway. Don't get too attached to the keyboard solo -- a different one is played at each performance.  You can hear a bit of (517) in that old RvB episode where, uh, the puma tries to kill sarge.

Lyrics:
213 girls talk too much
And 212 boys not enough
312s are very bold
Man 206 gets way too cold
Doing shots I'm all alone
I slur my words after the tone

And I drink and I call...

I can't stand to be alone...
Save me on the telephone.

419s they hate the phone
And 208s are never home
And all my lovers they have voice mail
They call me back, they give me hell!

And I drink and I call...

I've dialed the numbers, dialed them all
But nothing beats, a local call

617 boys, hmm, 617 girls, hmm
617 boys, hmm, 617 girls, hmm

(617)

Words can't even begin to describe the depth and power of Alan Moore's Watchmen and neither can music, but we had to try. This tune features original Trocaderist Susan Hsia, who co-wrote it. Sadly, she left the band for inconsequential things like Harvard, work, love and marriage.  Superhero appears in Episode 28 of RvB

Lyrics:
True American love,
Is like a green Coke bottle
They don't make it anymore
Part of me died back in '64...

I want to be a superhero
I've got a mask I've got a name
Your days calling me freak are numbered
Don't bother with surrender

We were so wrong
All dressed up, with somewhere to go
We wanted to do right, but
The costume fits just a little too tight...

I want to be a superhero
(I want to be a superwoman)

I don't have any super-powers
(I'll hang out with my super girlfriends)

I want to be a superhero, I don't need any super...
(Talk about our days)

I'm gonna be a superhero
I don't need (have) any super-powers

Your days calling me freak are numbered
(and pushing me around, well)

My broken heart's a super-power
(they're over, they're over, over)

Superhero

Nico: Susan and I used to really get into the X Files (we started around seaon 3.) The tension and chemisty between the two protagonists was just so tangible... the piano theme at the beginning was played on a Casiotone -- I swear it beats a 9 1/2 foot Steinway in this context.

Lyrics:
With my games, and your games
And the rules we hate the same
And my breath, and your breath
As I hear you call my name

Like two parts, face to face
And the whole, falls into place
All as one...

With my dad, and your dad
And the gin, they never had
And my rules, and your rules
And your heart, and mine it cools
Beating hard... 

Follow the truth, follow the lies
Nobody wins, everything dies...

With your art, and my art
To instigate, a change of heart
And your heart, and your mind
And your body, next to mine
