ICE FROM THE SKY

2020 janine levinson

I woke up this morning to ice from the sky
In my little piece of paradise
It should be warm; it should be temperate
And yet, ice from the sky

It's dry! so dry! said the ground to the sky
In my little piece of paradise
It should be flowing where I have flourished
And yet it's terribly dry

Withering and shrinking; waiting for a drink
A sprout or two will rise -- but never climb to the sky

I woke up this morning with tears in my eyes
in my little piece of paradise
I should feel warm and be contented
and yet, tears in my eyes

Muttering and sinking; watching for a cloud
A spout or two will rise -- but never a drop from the sky

A quake could shake the ground 
And if a tear were to hit it right
It would split with an awful sound
And day would turn to night

The sky could fall --be upside down
The clouds my bed  -- the stars my ground
The heavens pour and burn my toes
Ice will fly.  Still nothing grows.

I woke up this morning to ice from the sky
In my little piece of paradise
It should be warm; it should be temperate
And yet, ice from the sky

LYRICS BELOW
Here's another preview of the upcoming Penelope's Thrill album--something a little different--a rock song with a tuba solo! When I was recording this song with my Starfire XII electric 12 string, I just felt it was crying out for a tuba solo (which would be about the biggest possible contrast for the chime of a 12 string). Luckily, Ben Jaeger--the amazing guitarist for the Madison, Wisconsin, band Sunspot--is also a tuba virtuoso, and he agreed to take this on.
"L&C Eternally" is about Lonnie and Chloe, who grow up on adjacent farms in southern Wisconsin. (In fact, the whole new album is about them.)
The main guitar I play on this is my 1966 Guild Starfire XII, my choice for the best electric 12 ever built. With some fast-picking and palm-muting, it can make some unique sounds! The Starfire is helped by my Gretsch 2420 and my '78 Guild S-60.
(And, yes, that is me doing the really high backing vocals!)

“L & C Eternally”
Words & Music by Timothy Walsh

She wakes on a Sunday and she don’t know
if she wants to be a person dreaming.
She don’t want it and she don’t go
down to where all the folks are meeting.

She goes down to Lonnie’s farm,
wakes him with a soft punch on his arm
She smiles at him—is she in love?

He puts on the coffee and rubs his eyes,
tells her she’s a pain while he cooks the bacon.
She says cut the crap while she serves the eggs—
says they could be already out there fishing.

	He smothers her toast with strawberry jam,
	feeds her a morsel quick as he can.
	He smiles at her—is he in love?

They don’t take it all the way.
They don’t think about it anyway.
When they’re walking in the woods,
they know they’re living like they should.

Lonnie and Chloe are sitting in a tree—
K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
That’s the jump-rope song they sang
playing in the schoolyard before the bell rang.
	“L & C Eternally”—
	that’s what Lonnie carved upon a tree,
	and Chloe said, “Now we’re in Love!”
