lyrics
Listen to that boys, playing good
Next round to crown of the neighborhood
Lonny play that guitar and shut your mouth pa
Check out my boy from the South Shwa
Our native tongue, the Writer’s pen
Sweet desire, our favourite friend
good ol days - remember em well
Ghetto Music,
Renaissance Hotel
Them good ol school wise guys know where it’s at
They said “time flies when you throw it up in the air like that”
These moving ‘round days have taken a toll
good to be back on Canadian soil
Our native tongue, the Writer’s pen
Sweet desire, our favourite friend
good ol days - remember em well
Ghetto Music,
Renaissance Hotel

Promise

lyrics:
You better move your ass
it’s going to get you, fast
We’ve gone past
the point of returning now
Nice bridge London,
not for nothing
it didn’t take much to burn it down
Still the world keeps turning, spinning like an old 45
Tough times but at least we’re learning and some of us are bound to survive
Put your guns down Baby, you want to get deep
If I’m being honest
it’s all just a promise
that... I’m dying to keep
Solo Break
(don’t keep reading the lyrics!.. just take a second listen to Lon Tron Silver playing some guitar, then continue reading after... it's nice right)
Now it’s mother nature like a girl with poem
and a lover like a gangster when he’s sweet
The world is a breeze but come on babe that’s lazy
you got to be a hurricane to sweep em off their feet
Need a wiseman to talk to, regret is just a bump in a the road
Throw away all those chains they bought you
all gold is fool’s gold
Put your guns down
baby if you want to get deep
If I’m being honest it’s all just a promise
that I’m dying to keep
Solo Break
(you know the deal... just take a break on the lyrics for moment while Lon Tron Silver plays the dickens out of that harmonica..... thank you)
Calling all shots toss your wallet pathetic
the checks in the mail
non-profit prophetic I get it
success when you fail
That’s the thing about planning the random prevail
the last one to mention the answer the question, the chicken the egg, the hammer the nail
Put your guns down
baby if you want to get deep
If I’m being honest it’s all just a promise
that we’re dying to keep

Déjà vu

lyrics:
In the dream, she bites her bottom lip
The echo makes a sound
In the major key of Leopard print
The memory comes around
She talks
like she’s a poet
He acts l
ike he’s a clown
It’s only music
that they’re making
What a thing to do
To make a dream come true
Nature’s lazy way of giving us a view into limbo,
what a window, Déjà vu
It’s a moment like you’ve been there
Nothing to describe
Like a candle of a body melted in the mind
It’s sudden and it’s dangerous, but it’s welcome and its kind
Like a visit from a friend
What a thing to do
To make a dream come true
Nature’s lazy way of giving
Us a view
Into limbo, what a window
… Déjà vu

That Way?

lyrics:
When the medicine night and the body take flight on a moonlit sky serenade can you shuffle your feet down easy street in the wandering misfit parade?
When all things are stoned can you alone throw her a bone she can play and then watch her disappear like she was never even here…
I know you love her, can you love her
That way?
In the hour the coward gets grabbed by the arm and thrown on top of the hood are you ready to deal with your instincts when you know the odds aint that good?
How much are you willing to gamble, how much are you willing to pay? Are you ready to get your pretty hands dirty?
I know you love her, can you love her
That way?
When all things are covered can you take a vow and allow her to discover her pain? What if she never recovers, tell me brother,
Can you love her
That Way?
In the evening of need are you willing to bleed and recede into ash just like smoke? In the minute your image gets torn and diminished will you at least let her finish the joke? Are you ready to walk along burning coals day after day after day? Can you believe in miracles?
I know you love her, can you love her
That way?

Once In A Lifetime Blues

lyrics
They say that Empires fall
But you rule when you can
There’s no such thing as forever
Try and remember it’s just the business at hand
And we never planned on
Seeing this through
We’ve been spending our whole lives
Having our cake
Well, we was eating it too
Now it’s the end of end of the world
Babe aint you seen it in the news?
And here we are falling in love with these
Once in lifetime blues
They say I am what I aint
Like a wet streak of paint
They have me over for dinner,
Call me a sinner, while I eat like a saint
They want it cool when it’s hot
Everybody gets lost
in some kind of thought
It’s more than it seems, but
Sometimes these dreams
Are all that we got
Now it’s the end of end of the world
Babe aint you seen it in the news?
And here we are falling in love with these
Once in lifetime blues

Between The Lines

lyrics:
no disrespect darlin'
I can see you’re amused
Did you notice you were bleeding or were you just reading
the news?..
What’s that song you’re playing? It’s the greenest of blues
I can hear down the hallway like your leaving me clues
and I don’t know what it means
but I’m seeing the signs
There’s a message in there somewhere
I just got to read between the lines
Last time she was spinning
an old ball of yarn,
looking just like the Devil grinning
same kind of charm
“That was nine years ago, maybe ten” she said
“I’m not surprised”
I could tell by the way she was speaking
She was reading in between the lines
First sucker out, next sucker in
Monkey in the middle is talking in riddles again
Remember the drumming?
Remember the corner?
Remember what’s coming?
Remember to warn her!
I was right in my suspicion I’m certain of the now
that's why I came here on a mission, the circus is in town
and I don’t know when they're leaving
but I’ll be here every evening at nine
Looking for a reason to keep reading in between the lines
The scenic route is being cued and apophenic mutants keep on speaking in rhymes
..These are the times
There’s a message in the somewhere
I just got to read between the lines
