Midnight Marage (instrumental) by Lori Yamamoto by Matt Love

Blue Rolls Royce, daddy’s voice. Sally cryin’ by choice. Yes, I sing about Sally. Firelight, book burn bright. Yes, I sing about Sally tonight. Cry, cry, cry — tears in her hair. Messiah on the wall just stare. Yes, I sing about Sally. Yes, I sing about Sally. Backseat, backstreet, midnight plan. Sneakin’ out to find her man. Yes, I sing about Sally. Yes, I sing about Sally. Stage light, crowd tig...

They call me every Friday, say “Wayne, come raise some hell!” They swear that little tavern’s where the local angels fell. But I just sip my coffee, and grin like I can’t tell — I’m goin’ somewhere softer, where the Wi-Fi don’t do well. [Chorus] They play Desolation Row like it’s a holy prayer, seventeen sad prophets with conditioner in their hair. Each one’s got a heartbreak, and a loop pedal sca...

Everybody, everybody, everybody, Everybody swing too far. Everybody, everybody, everybody, Everybody swing to the bar. I swing to the left, I swing to the right, Hang on tight in the morning light. C’mon, c’mon, let’s monkey go, High, low, fast, slow Monkey bars, monkey bars, monkey bars! Swing, clink, swing! Monkey bars, monkey bars, monkey bars! Swing, clink, swing! Little kids on the playground...

She arrives. She slides. She moves like midnight. She grooves like light. Backstreet sound. Click—clack—step. Shadow moves—mind your step. [CHORUS] Big! Black! Cat! Big! Black! Cat! Slinkin’, thinkin’— Where the night is at! Big! Black! Cat! Whiskers flash, tail whip, Moonlight on her back. Every move—smooth— Like she’s walkin’ on a track. [CALL] Who’s that queen in the dark? [RESPONSE] Big black...

[Verse 1] I’m sittin’ in a time zone, runnin’ outta time, heart says long ago, baby, you were mine. I’m in the wrong time zone, can’t find your heart, every little second keepin’ us apart. [Chorus – call & response] (Oh yeah!) Wrong time zone! (Oh yeah!) So far from home! (Oh yeah!) Wrong time zone! Can’t reach your love on the telephone. {spoken] Yes, we're asleep next to this labyrinth feed, jus...

[Intro – spoken] One, two, three, four — She’s a backstreet lady, uh-huh! [Verse 1] Backstreet lady, walkin’ slow, hips swing low where the cool cats go. Found me once, found me twice, want your money, want it nice. Can’t pay now, not today, baby, that’s the price we pay. [Chorus] Hey hey! (Hey hey!) Backstreet lady, walk my way. Hey hey! (Hey hey!) Backstreet lady, not today. [Verse 2] Uptown lad...

WHISKEY, WHISKEY, WHISKEY. Whiskey drinking women too. WHISKEY, WHISKEY, WHISKEY. Whiskey drinking women too. Friday night, Saturday too, drink it straight, that’s what they do. Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, whiskey drinking women too. Ain’t got time for working, no. Ain’t got time for love, oh no. Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey. Whiskey drinking women too. They just sip it, tip it, flip it, grin and let...

Everybody, everybody, everybody. Everybody sing "dangerous." Everybody, everybody, everybody. Everybody sing "dangerous." I sing dangerous too. Deer in the headlights, nowhere to go. Yes, I sing dangerous too. Shake it, break it, you can't take it. I'm afraid of you. Come on, come on, Tell me you want me too. Yes, I sing dangerous. Yes, I sing dangerous. Lovely and sexy, Your smile gleams, your pa...

Everybody, everybody, everybody. Everybody sing about blue. Everybody, everybody, everybody. Everybody sing about blue. I sing about blue, too. Songs are like tattoos. Yes, I sing about blue, too. Crown and anchor me, or let me sail the sea. I'm in love with you. Come on, come on, Tell me you love me too. Yes, I sing about blue. Yes, I sing about blue. Acid, booze, and grass, Lots of laughs, lots...

[Intro] Blue velvet... woah-woah... [Verse 1] I found a blue velvet (Woah-woah) Bluer than the sky's last light (Woah-woah-woah) A severed, human ear, so white On the grass. [Verse 2] It led me to blue velvet (Woah-woah) Behind a door, a captive scene (Woah-woah-woah) A woman robed in blue, a queen Of shattered glass. [Bridge] She sings, a torrid, haunted melody He laughs, a gasping, cruel "Mommy!...

Gonna tell ya a tale, a tall one at that. 'Bout a man, not so big, trapped in the blue. He swam in it, this blue soup, all day, all night, no escape, no way to get out. Looked 'round, what'd he see? Just blue, blue, blue. Squeezed his eyes shut, looked again. Still blue! Inside, outside, like a boiled egg. [Chorus] Doo be doo be doo Doo be doo be doo Doo be doo be doo Doo be doo be doo Doo be doo...

Well, my daddy left home when I was three, Didn't leave very much to my mom and me Except this old guitar and an empty box of granola. Can't say I blame him for the way he fled, But the cruelest notion ever in his head Was right before he went and disappeared, He looked at me and named me Blue. Well, he must've thought that it was quite a joke, And I got a lot of laughs from a lots of folk. Seems...

[Verse 1] Butterflies dancing On warm breeze below where I sit He calls me down now But branch holds me safe in the spring How few are left, I watch them float by [Verse 2] I sit on plum branch White petals falling around me He asks me to dance Beneath the wide sky where they wheel Three pairs remain in soft light today [Verse 3] His voice reaches up Gentle pleading through the blossoms Come down,...

Attack of the Tiki Men by The Deadbeat Club by Matt Love

[Verse 1] The winds of change whisper low A theme my life was meant to know To wander far, to roam and learn At every unexpected turn [Verse 2] My overture in Kyoto A temple bell, a misty view Then Tokyo's neon so bright And LA's incandescent light [Verse 3] From Ann Arbor's snow, new design To Detroit's steady pulsing line A bit of me in each I leave Yet paradoxically not grieve [Verse 4] For in...

[Intro] Hey, everyone, this is Lori... no, this is Kyoto Majo. Straight from Kyoto, you know. I love making music with my piano, and my old computer. I just enjoy the simple things, I guess. [Verse 1] Creative soul here Always strumming quiet tune Jamming with ghost friends Under cloudy pale moon tonight We play in bar I can't pronounce name [Verse 2] They call me gaijin Silly foreigner who tries...

[Verse 1] In hush before the city sleeps Where streetlights dance, my heartbeat feels The quiet pull of chance tonight A world in my head where love meets eye [Verse 2] Half-heard promise, gentle sigh A tired sound that passes by The strangers once did walk these streets Now it's just the two of us here [Chorus] I'm no longer vast inside A quiet simple trust I hold A fleeting touch, shared silent...

[Verse 1] Moon rises above on the broken dream I used to have, rain falls quietly On empty street where no one walks now I watch the leaves fall like memory [Verse 2] Stars fade away on a distant shore Lonely and quiet, simple fading things Remind me of what used to be here Everything changes but feeling stays [Chorus] In every day of of my life now I let go of the lessons I learned I seek the lig...

Soft light on ivory Just my wandering hands and me In quiet room alone Chords fall slow from major bright To minor shades of blue tonight Like city lights glow On lonely night when no one sees I humbly offer This small thing my hands can make for you Sound of trying to say what words can't Melody speaks when Words can only make things cheap Light and grey colors A secret softly spoken here Map of...
