Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Did you hear that sound
Underfoot
Uh oh! Must’ve stepped in it
Hate to look and see what’s found
Uh oh! Hate stepping in shhhhh…
Wait!
Better hold my tongue
’till my nose gets done
And that last step is undone
Yeah, the misdone is undone
So there’s no misstep regret
Noooo… no need to fret

LYRICS
The tale of the dog’s tail
Got cut short
In the grand scale of things
Not much to report
Snakes and snails and puppy dog tails
What are we made of?
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Boom-a-rang of love

The tale of the dog’s tail
In The End
The grand scheme of things
Return-send… return… send… return… send
The End

Instrumentation: Vocals, Acoustic and Electric Guitars, Loop Pedal, Keyboards, Synthesizers

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Caught the scent of a varmint
About to sniff it on out
No matter where h might have went
About to sniff it on out
If I’ve got to dig it, dig it I will
Dig it, dig it, dig it… dig it until…
Going to dig it ’til I fulfill

Caught the sight of a varmint
About to sniff it on out
Out of sight he might have went
About to sniff it on out
If I’ve got to dig it, dig it I will
Dig it, dig it, dig it… dig it until…
Going to dig it ’til I fulfill

A song about an investigative journalist… disguised as a dog.

LYRICS
In the fine sublime
At the End of Times
A canine makes it home
Fortunately, unconditionally
Our home
Above personally
Olive branch and dove
Is love

In the surreal feel
In the present deal
A canine makes it home
Fortunately, unconditionally
Our home
Above personally
Olive branch and dove
Is love

In this bizarre bazaar
It’s not that far
A canine makes it home
Fortunately, unconditionally
Our home
Above personally
Olive branch and dove
Is love

Finding your way
You’re not alone
Finding your way
Back home
Finding our way
We’re not alone
Finding our way at home

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Have you ever had to chase
After your dream
Within reach…
… but out of touch
The gremlins deem
Don’t let the dog out
Or you’ll find out what I’m talkin’bout
Don’t let the dog out

Let me tall ya all about it:
The was a rabbit
With a “too bad” habit
Making the yard habitat
(Imagine that?)
Don’t let the dog out
Or you’ll find out what I’m talkin’bout
Don’t let the dog out

there was a frog and a groundhog
Didn’t jump fast enough
For the groundhog, it got real rough
Forever hangin’ tough
Tough love reigning down from above
Tough love

Have you ever had to chase
After your dream
Within reach…
… but out of touch
The gremlins deem
Don’t let the dog out
Or you’ll find out what I’m talkin’bout
Don’t let the dog out

LYRICS
It’s been a long time coming
Hope she won’t run away
A long time coming
Hope she’s here to stay
Strike up the band and dance
For an ‘ole fashioned romance
In our arms, we sway

It’s been a long time coming
Heard she’s on her way
A long time coming
Heard she arrives today
Strike up the band and dance
For an ‘ole fashioned romance
In our arms, we sway

It’s been a long time coming
Ask her hand, she may
A long time coming
Without further delay
Strike up the band and dance
For an ‘ole fashioned romance
In our arms, we sway

LYRICS
I can see it in your eyes
What is it you hear
I can see it in your eyes
Obvious… clear
What is it that you hear?
The twitch of your nose
Flow of scent grows
Is it growing near
What is it you hear
Your intuition shows
Our solution knows

I can see it in your eyes
What is it you hear
I can see it in your eyes
Obvious… clear
What is it that you hear?
The tilted head pose
Curiosity grows
Is it growing near
What is it you hear
Your intuition shows
Our solution knows

You’re the best kind of friend to have
So kind
Out of my mind
And end to have
The means

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
When the occasion arose
I suppose…
He wanted to strike
A special pose
Strike a pose
Spectacular
It comes natural
So stoic
In the thick
A star
Spectacular
You are
Fantastic
Giving the kick
Stoic
In the thick

Then, the occasion arose
One of those
Instinctively throws a pose

Spectacular
It comes natural
So stoic
In the thick
A star
Spectacular
You are
Fantastic
Giving the kick
Stoic
In the thick

A song about man’s best friend.

Oh, it’s really snowin’
Won’t go out again?
Now, the wind is blowin’
Watch the dog’s tail waggin’
Running through the fall
Dodging through them all
Oh, for goodness’ sakes
You can’t avoid the flakes

Oh, still really snowin’
At the door again?
Know where you’re going
After where you’ve been
Running through the (snow)fall
Dodging through them all
Oh, for goodness’ sakes
You can’t avoid the flakes
