Peace, love, and happiness
I'm so pleased to make your arrest
Just what it is, is what it's  not
It ain't what you want it's what they got

Got a lot  of friends in Mobtown
The party never ends in Mobtown
Yes in Mobtown.  Yes in Mobtown

Pushed me right to the brink
I'm so damn mad I just can't think
It's written in the wind, can't you hear it call
Don't wait until your back's up against the wall

Got a lot to learn in Mobtown
Freedom to burn in Mobtown
Yes in Mobtown Yes in Mobtown
Yes in Mobtown yes in Mobtown
(riff)

Peace, love, and happiness
I'm so pleased to make your arrest
Just what it is, is what it's  not
It ain't what you want it's what they've got

Got a lot to learn in Mobtown
Freedom to burn in Mobtown
Yes in Mobtown yes in Mobtown
Yes in Mobtown yes in Mobtown

Freedom to burn in Mobtown
Freedom to burn in Mobtown
Freedom to burn in Mobtown
Freedom to burn...

Yes in Mobtown,, yes in Mobtown
Yes in Mobtown,  yes in Mobtown

Don't you leave me alone with your love
Cause I can't be trusted to do what is right
Don't you leave me alone with your love
Run away baby into the night

You're  going to love this I've known from the start
Just how I knew I'd be breaking your heart
Swim in your ocean and sail on your sea
By summer's end you'll wish you 'd never kissed me

'Cause to love, I will do
Any damn thing that I want to
Now it's love and it's true
I'll just break your little heart in two

'Cause to love, I will do
Any damn thing that I want to
Now it's love and it's true
I'll just break your little heart in two

So don't you leave me alone with your love
Cause I can't be trusted to do what is right
Don't you leave me alone with your love
Run away baby into the night
Into the night Into the night
Into the night

Summer Of Love

You're becoming too involved
That's what she said to me
And your're about to take  a fall
Into your hour of need

She said it's time to break the mold
Shiverin, Freezin, wicked cold
Now you're about to see
Ecstasy's now misery

How I miss the sound of her sweet sighs
So sweet I never heard her sweet lies
Her sweet lies her sweet lies
Her sweet lies

(riff)

How I miss the sound of her sweet sighs
So sweet I never heard, so sweet I never heard
So sweet I never heard her sweet lies
Her sweet lies, her sweet lies
Her sweet lies

You're becoming too involved
That's what she said to me
And your're about to take  a fall
Into your hour of need

How I miss the sound of her sweet sighs
So sweet I never heard, so sweet I never heard
So sweet I never heard her sweet lies
Her sweet lies, her sweet lies
Her sweet lies

I've got dreams just like you ,
They've been crushed a time or two
I've been growing up so slowly i'm still young

And I don't want to live to fast
Want the good times to last
I don't want to catch the bus before my time

I Can Fly, I Can Fly
I Can Fly,.....

Time to trade in these old wings
Trade them in on better things
Tomorrow you'll regret you never changed

And it takes guts to walk away
Way more guts than to stay
I gonna catch that plane and never say goodbye

Cause I Can Fly, I Can Fly
I Can Fly, I Can Fly......

riff

About the band: Confused By Zebras plays mostly original music and a few select covers. Marc Franz, formerly of The Slip, In The Red and The Monkey Boys, has been writing his original music for many years now just looking for the right group to help develop and play it. Marc is the writer, singer, and guitarist of Confused By Zebras and a lifelong music artist who largely abandoned public performing in the 90s to raise two sons and hold down a family life, but playing and writing continued, often late at night while everyone slept. Meeting seasoned bassist, Allen Jones in 2010 brought in an original artist with a long pedigree of performance and recording skills (the entire CBZ catalog was recorded in Allen’s own RockHaven Records studio) who gave Marc a solid footing (in many ways) to realize the potential of his original compositions. His bass lines are potent, elegant and artful. Three different drummers grace the recordings, but the drum chair is once again occupied by Marc’s lifelong sidekick, Dave Lockhoff. 

The performance philosophy of Confused By Zebras still boils down to the same formula Marc has used from the days of the early bands of his 20’s and 30’s: Songs are an excuse to jam. Of course, there are riffs and notes to be duplicated, but it is not by rote recital. Every performance must be visceral, spirited and delivered with urgency. The aim is to reach into the inner human workings of the audience, to provoke their minds with imagery and seduce their senses with sound, and to trip off the light fantastic that makes heads swim and minds dream. That sound is invariably delivered with a three-piece band and a well broken in Fender Stratocaster, a traditional tube amplifier and minimal effects with a strong nod to the great guitar bands of the Woodstock era; bands that were based on pop sensibilities married to a rocking bluesy guitar with psychedelic overtones and harmonized voices with lyrics that provoke thoughts of living fully human and alive. Listen to these songs and be transported.

Hope you all get the chance to listen and even come on out to hear them perform their original music. Any feedback encouraged and would be welcomed.
