Do As I Am Told MP3

Your eyes
Are so steely cold
You think
I should do as told
As long
As you are talking
So long
’cause I am walking

You get
What you deserve
Your soul
Will not preserve

You’re mad
Angry and mean
You’re mad
A nightmarish dream
You’re mad
Insane
You don’t know
What you mean
No know
Do you know
You’re that mean?

About The Song
Em add G

The vocals and acoustic guitar were recorded in the Appalachian mountains. There are a total of 8 tracks (4 stereo tracks): drums, classical guitar, lead vocals and backing vocals.

It is about relationship in which the wife is abusive to her husband and children. She expects her mate to do as he is told. If he does not, she goes into a fit of rage.

Untame Aim MP3

Did ya know
Did ya know
You can go to the moon
Did ya know
Did ya know
You can fly to the sky
Did ya know
Did ya know
You can take us
High, hi, high, hi….

Untamed the aim
That’s our refrain
Untamed the aim
Bilateral gain
Untamed the aim
Shoot for the stars
Untamed the aim
At war with wars
After all
We’re all neighbors
Untamed the aim
Adventurous endeavors
About The Song

Capo 3
G-D-G-Bb-D-G add E
G-C-G-C-D-G

This song was recorded at a lake house in the Appalachian Mountains. A stereo track of acoustic nylon guitar was mixed with a stereo track of vocals.

It is about taking the mental restrictions off setting your goals. Not only can you “think outside the box” you can also aim outside the box.

Can anyone tell me
How did we wind up here?
How did we wind up
Wind up here
Why didn’t anyone steer?
Well, how did we wind up
Wind up
That’s not exactly clear
It’s what we did fear
Now, oh dear
We can’t see clear
We can’t see the light
It’s dark
The darkest night
Is there something bright
How did we wind up here
Exactly what we did fear

With these junkyard dogs
All fat hogs

About The Song
The song is a live acoustic recording. A stereo track of an old upright piano and a stereo vocal track.

On a macro scale it is about how the human race has treated the world. On a micro scale it is about a mother who abandoned her husband.

These recordings were made using a Roland Boss BR-600 on a deck overlooking a lake while kids created works of art. One girl started singing “I Know A Song” but was too shy to record it, so we tried to recreate it.

Well, If you wanna dance

But, if you wanna pose
There’s no posers here
Steer clear

But, If you wanna dance

At every chance
Get on your feet
And, move to the beat

About The Song
This was the first “song” recorded on the Roland Boss Br-600. It uses the onboard drum machine with a stereo vocal track. The reason it is so short? Because I wanted to make sure the recorder was working… or at least, that I knew how to save the song.

It is a demo version. The vocals are meant to have an effect added, as well as, the addition of more tracks, electric guitar, syths, etc.

The album Technical Techno got it’s name from this track. Some people might argue that it isn’t Technically Techno. On the other hand, you get to hear the technical aspects of how techno is created?

About The Song
The song was recorded on the Roland Boss BR-600 using stereo 2-track and the onboard condenser microphones. An ole’ beat up nylon 6-string was the instrument of choice.

The song is also known as The Ambler Rambler as it has evolved during live performances on the streets of Ambler, PA. It turned into Gamble To Ramble. If you have ever had your movement restrained, you will appreciate the meaning.

Nobody knows
Nobody knows
No one knows

Just because
Now, all is was
Nobody knows
Nobody knows

Just because
All that is… was.

Nobody knows

The Earth did quake
And, demons shake
Nobody knows

And, everything that is
Turns to was
Just because

The Earth did quake and shake
You take, take, take

Nobody Knows MP3

About The Song
The song is a 6 track recording made on the Roland Boss BR-600. Two of the tracks are live piano recorded in stereo, and there are two stereo 2-tracks of vocals.

The song is about the devastation a spouse can bring on a family through abuse and abandonment. Why would someone do that? Nobody knows.

I got your email address from Ed Simmons. I don’t know if he told you, but I have a band (‘The Mistaken‘) and am always looking for exposure. We have songs available for download at iTune s as well as CDBaby.com. We also have a website, myspace page, etc.

I would be very interested in seeing what you could possibly do for us regarding exposure and reaching a broader audience.

Our website is: www.themistaken.com We also have an info sheet, aka ‘EPK’: http://www.sonicbids.com/TheMistaken

Thanks for your time,

A few of your buddies they sure look shady
Blades are long, clenched tight in their fist
Aimin’ straight at your back
And I don’t think they’ll miss

I keep gettin’ all these visits from my friends, yeah, what they doin to me
They come to my house again and again and again and again, yeah
So are they there to see my woman
I don’t even be home but they just keep on comin’
What can I do to get on the right track
I wish they’d take some of these knives off my back

XX (aka peter’d out and double crossed)

Have you ever had a friend,
That petered out?
Is that how you found out,
What they-r ‘ll about?

Have you ever been double crossed?
Stiffed? Stuffed? Stripped?
Have you ever been double crossed?
Mished. Mashed. Messed.

Too bad for their fate,
But, don’t let it get you irate!
Better to find out,
What they-r ‘ll about,
Before it’s too late,
And, they castrate…
Berate… degenerate.

Noooo… I choose to create!

Give ’em enough rope,
To prove their scope,
They define:
Lifeline?
Or, is their definition too loose,
As they build (fasten) their own noose?

Have you ever had a friend,
That petered out?
Is that how you found out,
What they-r ‘ll about?

Have you ever been double crossed?
Stiffed? Stuffed? Stripped?
Have you ever been double crossed?
Mished. Mashed. Messed.

I sure hope She comes my way,
In fact, that’s what I pray,
And, She continues… to this day,
To keep on passing my way.

I hope She comes my way,
I mean… that’s just it,
I don’t mind a bit,
When She should pass my way.

Up until my judgement day,
I’ll continue to act this way,
As long as I have my way,
I’ll follow what She has to say.

I won’t let her pass me by,
I’ll continue to try n’ try,
To continue by Her side,
To continue to try n’ try,
To continue to continue to abide.

Cover Version of
BANG THE DRUM ALL DAY
originally made famous by Todd Rundgren
cover version is simply a Mess

I don’t want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day
I don’t want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day

Ever since I was a tiny boy
I don’t want no candy
I don’t need no toy
I took a stick and an old coffee can
I bang on that thing ’til I got
Blisters on my hand

because… chorus

When I get older they think I’m a fool
The teacher told me I should stay after school
She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
But my licks was so hot
I made the teacher wanna dance
And that’s why… chorus

Listen to this
Every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated
The boss is a jerk
And I get my sticks and go out to the shed
And I pound on that drum like it was the boss’s head
Because… chorus

I can bang that drum
Hey, you wanna take a bang at it?
I can do this all day

You would think we’d say,
After we made it all this way,
Where do we go from here?
But, all that I hear —
Here we go again!

Who wants to begin again…
And, again and again?
Having been,
I already know the feeling,
Since I know,
Can we go,
Ahead?

Now we’ve said,
After we made it all this way,
Where do we go from here?
I hope all that I hear is…
On to another beautiful day!
