Roger M. Harris's listening history
in bed - cant sleep
go downstairs to pour a drink
the acs out, its hot as shit
but you learn to get used to it
since you left, its been hard
leavin early from parties and bars
you wont pick up, you're over it
its been a while, im used to it…

This did start off as a happy Blues, then I thought there's no such beast, is there ? So a quick rewrite to darken it up a bit. Well that's me for a couple of weeks, Daughter's Wedding Saturday, then off on a 10 day Cruise on Wednesday. You all…

This one is much more of a pop song, with a bouncy bass line underscoring the lyrics, which is an ode to teenage impatience.
Enjoy.

This was written during one of my extended absences from home. I'll post the lyrics as soon as I find them.
Enjoy.

Well I be damned,found this lurking on the old PC, just a bog standard blues riff recorded last year.

I am a man, of means,
I mean I hide behind my strongest teeth.
White Ivories, white ivory.
I tread on hollow ground,
Broken glass, and longer ways down.
Than metaphors, engulfing me
I stare up at night,
Wonder who else might feel such a fright…

Packed up, and left on the wind
I haven't felt it, since I don't know when
I tried to quell restless legs
Bled out from words, and did nothing for it
So wear down the tread,
Exchanged throttle for needle and thread
Take charge to fix all that…

The curtain call,
Yeah it falls and drifts away.
And I know, it's not what you want,
Yeah I'm not even close.
I'm a dead dog,
Licking your mouth, stuck on the outside of town
Lost in the fog, naked and flogged
Not in the blush on your cheeks…

I boarded up windows,
Fixed the cracks on my sills
And I, bought a new pair of scissors,
Cut away scattered seams,' so it seems
I took a vacation,
Away from the dark creaks, floor boards in my eyes
And it's been a long, been a long, been…

Oh,
Iron jaws, wrapped around my legs,
Try to gnaw, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Oh,
Fresh cut gauze, soaking lips,
Trying not to fall, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Silent pines, know my name
Even…
