Lyric:
SHE
She,
Shes never far away from me.
She always gives me what I need.
So that I never want.
She,
She never strays too far from home.
She rarely leaves me all alone.
She's my whole world.
She,
She watches over me.

"Tell Me Ma", was featured on National Public Radio's Second Stage. As NPR put it: "Beatnik Turtle is a remarkably prolific and fiercely independent rock group based in Chicago. The eight-piece band includes a full horn section and has been making…

Mick McGuire was "all that" when he was dating the family's older daughter (who was 40). As soon as he married her and spent all the money, poor Mick was subjected to his Mother-In-Law. Mother-in-Laws have gotten a bad wrap for hundreds of years.

This was the song that launched the entire SHAM ROCK album. This is what happens when you turn up the tempo, crank the volume, and add a horn section.
As with most of these songs, we came up with our own music to add to these songs. So, the…

Beatnik Turtle's take on another ol' Irish classic.

This old song had a lot of braggin' in it. So, we couldn't resist giving it a bit of the old skool hip-hop flavor.

Another ol' Irish song about drinkin' and smokin'. Who knew?

Contrary to public opinion, the term "The Holy Ground" doesn't refer to the Emerald Isle. Nope. It's the name of a whore house that Irish sailors would visit. The Irish have quite a sense of humor...!

I Believe by far my most beautiful instrumental track, much the
opposite of You Forgot Bush's War Crimes. Maybe because I haven't commited any?
I'm growing to accept that most of the time, my instrumentals should be short and
sweet.

I've never heard "Horse with No Name" all the way through, and i wasn't trying to
rip it off, but i really like the melody i wrote for this and it turned out to fit
perfectly with the sound of the bass. Really proud of my composing on this track…

This was supposed to be my "folky" track, but I love the way this turned out.
It was originally written Napalm Shoot up but My Chair took it's place on that
album.

I don't know if even I can tell, but this is inspired by Captain Beefheart's
Trout Mask Replica. Ok, maybe its not so well hidden. Katie Lawrence can be heard

Inspired partly by a co-worker who was a great, now lost musician. This track is
somewhat about my five year stint in Gallup, New Mexico (Bob Dylan anyone?). This
was written as a poem before I started writing Slumber Love.

I'm not usually good at mixing two of my songs together, but i think this turned
out great. Maybe a little too Velvet Underground. Maybe nothing is ever too

Supposed to be the biggest joke on this album, Candle turned more into an actual
like-able song. I was trying to make fun of Sonic Youth stuff, but it ended up
growing and becoming an instant Mud Octave classic track. The Lyrics were written…

This is one of the songs I wrote for Filthy Time that's been hiding

I did a brief stint where I used loop libraries.
I still feel as though this track should say "written by Robert Rich".
This is also why I no longer do loop libraries.

Wrote this little piece from 7/14/09 to 7/15/09. A lot more metal than I'm used to playing. Played on my broken-neck Epiphone semi-hollow.
