about

________________________________________________________
Another recording experiment on my way towards a solo album. (which will actually come soon, I'm just holding most of it back til it's ready... recorded super DIY in my caravan and a friend's house. try guess what the bass was because I don't possess a bass guitar ;)

lyrics

____________________________________
Well it's cold and dark and the fire's gone out,
late at night but I just don't feel like sleep,
songs running all inside my mind,
only one thing left that keeps me going,
round and round and round and round,
the only thing that keeps me going on.

It rained all day and the leaves are gone,
now it's dark and the winter's rolling on,
and I don't know where my energy has gone,
only one thing left that keeps me going,
round and round and round and round,
the only thing that keeps me going on.

and our songs are sung when the night has come,
and the fire stays burning til the dawn,
and I still can't sleep in this place we keep,
where the cops come banging down the door,
we turn the bass up loud and it's solar powered,
everybody's dancing on the floor,
and when it's time to leave we say,
"finally, I'm surprised that we got so long in there"

cop cars and caravan fires,
stolen whisky, accidental riots,
finding clothes on the edge of the street,
and playing our songs til we're paid to leave, "GO!"

Our songs are sung when the night has come,
and the fire stays burning til the dawn,
and I still can't sleep in this place we keep,
where the cops come banging down the door,
we turn the bass up loud and it's solar powered,
everybody's dancing on the floor,
and when it's time to leave we say,
"finally, I'm surprised that we got so long in there"

little forest creatures skitter about, some of them laugh, some of them shout, sitting in the treetops is a little bird, safe and warm and sometimes absurd.
