I'm a Dickhead
03:55

|
I dabble with the gross and obscene
I'm hidden and I'm rarely seen for what I am
I wrote a story so unclean
There was nothing I really mean
Oh no I'm self-destruct
CHORUS
Cuz I'm a dickhead
Well that's what she said
She said or maybe thought?
Like my rapport
I'm not always that self-aware
Cuz I'm a dickhead
Well that's what she said
She said or maybe thought?
Its made me fraught
There's something there!
Well I need fresh air!
I'm barely conscious and don't detect
When my brain is clearly disconnected (duh duh duh)
I take my troubles and deflect
I could not bare what I could wreck
On no I'm self-destruct
CHORUS

Release Me

I'm only drinking to forget half the people that I met
Spit on the cloth to shine
Sparkly pantomime
You've just misread what was said
CHORUS
Pack it up, cut it up, cut me up and release me
Pack it up, show me up, show me how you would please me
And fleece me
Disturbing chapter in my brain
A party to which no-one came
Blow on the horn and attack
My spines bent on this ol' rack
I lost track and something crack
CHORUS
I'm living by another name
I'm burnt to cinders by old flame
Like some theft there's no-one left
There's something afar that caught my eye
Before I cuddle up and die
Take all the pity away
Use up an hour as you pray
So good day, keep the wolves at bay
CHORUS

Misunderstood
03:20
|
|||
|
Now I'm busy doing nothing
And nothing feels so good
Although I hear the people chuckling
It's just cuz I'm misunderstood
I'm no good
So its paramount to crazy
I'm dribbling out my food
The future's looking hazy
Its just cuz I'm misunderstood
I'm no good
There's a unison of voices
My face behind a hood
I've failed so many choices
It's just cuz I'm misunderstood
I'm no good

Straitjacket Day
03:36
|
|||
|
I'm bad, its better late than never
A world class weakling that few have seen
Its sad state, I'm not too clever
I'm tapping on the hammond for my own grand theme
CHORUS
I'm busy thinking but I didn't leave the lights on
I'm always peering but there's no-one out to play
My teeth are grinding but I couldn't get the bite on
Straitjacket day
A ghost of a former glory
I'm counting all my wishes and I'm saying bye bye
A roast of my fictional story
I know I'm always failing but at least I try
CHORUS

Ashes
04:22
|
|||
|
I'm the remaining gent
Maybe I'm heaven sent
I think my time is spent
My cheeks are glowing
To disappear in smoke
And watch onlookers choke
It's quite beyond a joke
It'll make a poem
CHIORUS
Into the fires of hell
Well its fires of some sort
The flesh makes a burning smell
The last thought that's thought
Into the fire
I can't retaliate whilst I evaporate
And my ashes take to the air
I got my just rewards
For all my suspects thoughts
Like many Damocles swords
Forever dangling
Each one doth cut real deep
And send to ever sleep
You shouldn't dare to peep
Oh body mangling
CHORUS
A blackened broken tombstone
Of no-one very much known
Despite this lengthy tome
What's to remember?
I thought I left my mark
But it has all gone dark
Reality so stark
I throw my temper
CHORUS

Musician, author, photographer and life model. With influences ranging from the lofi pop of Guided by Voices, the gothic
melodrama of Nick Cave, the glam of Bowie and the nakedness of Iggy Pop. Former frontman of Freak Circus and Dead Joe.
Blending all of these styles together and spewing them out in his own way. That is, when he isn't playing glam rock with Weymouth based Glass Spiders!
