El Matador
I was born into a fire
Only days alive and swallowed whole
Tight in the grip of man
Cold and calloused hand
Side-step the blow
Joy is dissolution
Joy is dissolution…

We Get Old
We used to go out in the snow
When we felt the urge to go
With every passing season we get old
The tricks we used to play
In the snow where I would lay
Made a promise…

Lock the door, draw the shades
In your web I have been caught
Not enough to fill you up
Leave me a skin
A shell of the man that I was…

Red Milk White Meat
Leaving the porch light on
Waiting up for someone or just afraid of the dark
The devil’s in the drive
Laughing and flashing his headlights
Cause he knows that…

Street Names
And so the modern children
Know all the new street names
It’s sweet and candy coated
It looks different…

Just letting out my frustration at 'people' in general again.. nice to be able to vent it in a more pleasant way (for those interested in how I used to do it, please see http://alonetone.com/boynamedsu) :)
Lo and behold now holy guacamole if…
Hey Billy. I've been hearing lots of your RPM 2010 album on the Scopes RPM radio. It's awesome. I love the gentle, laid back, comforting sounds. Beautiful acoustics. Great work.
cheers,

I miss the smell of your hands
Your breath
The feel of your skin
We didn’t have to talk
Just understood
What the other was
We are of the same
But we knew
The end would come
Time is no friend
We are not healed
The pain is old
But feels new…
one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010
this is one i have to stop tweaking - six versions and i still don't get what i hear in my head
would love some crit for this one as it's doing my head in
thanks
An older song that was originally inspired by Prefab Sprout's "Goodbye Lucille #1 (aka 'Johnny Johnny')" but has morphed into it's current state that's more influenced by Suicide and House of Love.
this was my last rpm song...i had a little mandolin riff and threw on the kazoo (which broke in the last verse), and it reminded me a happy bee buzzing around...and there you have it!
It enters us
Without us knowing
Not welcome
Uninvited
Go away
Leave me alone
Give me peace
Let me rest
Eat us from the inside
Bit by bit
Cell by cell
Multiplying
Taking over
Invaded
Go away
Leave me alone
Give me peace
Let…
In the moment
So alive
Taunting death
Every color sings
Every smell
Breathe deep
Open wide
All is new
Sounds inspire
Electric space
Shed the skin
Of the old
All is new
All is new
Take my hand
Run so fast
We’re alive
Taunting death

I just realized the title of the CD has to do with pulling yourself away from this awesome music and getting back to work. No, I won't like it.
Very nice track. Nice hook as well.
Good song
Enjoyed the music - great recording and song!
Perfect fit to the rest of the album. Great vox.
Fantastic vocal harmonies!
