Amidst the Irish country side, a drunken chap encounters wee folk, but not the sort he was expecting. Lyrics just a recycled tale from the days of old when many a drunk irishman looked for his pot of gold gallavanting wassling through…

Vault 106 will be remembered. Lyrics the past haunting me in triplicate into the blue I pursue my ghosts again what is the glue holding all this together? is there a clue to allow me to remember? is their some truth buried…

Robot gets hit by a car crossing through Kelley Square (Had he passed the Turing Test, he would have known not to try that.) He ascends into the Chinese Room, where he has access to total knowledge through an infinite number of fortune cookies.

Big Dumb Rocker Alert. Also, lyrics inspired by a post on the Florida Man twitter account (link below). Everything I was doing was slow and kinda quiet. So I wrote something fast and noisy and gave it lyrics about a guy who tries to pay…

Our dreams can be very vivid and realistic - there are days I think all of reality is simply somebody thinking about (or remembering?) us. Lyrics I'm not the god of thee you're just my memories as I remember them [see the scenery…

Eh. I thought it would be cool to write something in drop D and then play it on a 12 string. Then I could drop two D's! HarHarHar. The lyrics are about how scary some of Donald Trumps followers are. If he wins in November I'm moving to…

This one had throw away written all over it from the first moment I thought of it. It's my second entry in the Ice Cream Chords challenge over at FAWM.org. I kept this one in Major and it's just as fruity as one would expect. The lyrics are…

It's an emergency It's time to follow through This fateful spell This hateful shell This view If only you'd permit yourself To see the vision before your eyes The intervening years The fading cheers The garden full of wine (Chorus…

Scarf tied to hide the face Lurking in the shadows Entertained by every chase Covertly underexposed Tag it And admire it Then on to the next wall Fluorescent basement sign Hiding in the rat run Phosphorescent alibi Stylistic but overdone…

Drowning in a sea of pills Testing their performance Keep from slipping off downhill Accept this circumstance Jump right back in to the fray Expect reaction no delay (Chorus) Balance, it’s the new mantra Balance, the new prayer Balance…
