Bach's music could fit into a week. Mine fits in an hour... Music While the new wave musical tsunami inundated NY's lower east side, a half a world west, I sat on a busted seat in a bus without shocks, banging down the hard, dry roads of the Tunisian sahel. As a coral sun rose over the gray dawn of the dun desert, my eyes burned after a sleepless weekend, and the melodic line and lyric of my first song slid like a sidewinder across my mind. Simply and unexpectedly, song-writing, like an invading species with no natural enemies, came into my life. The Erotics Want You to Come was my band's slogan during the NY new wave rock and roll wars in the '80s. To hear recordings of my songs click this: | From First Song  Song, song, song, It doesn't make it very long, But still there's so much singing in the park.
You may think that it's sad,but thinking doesn't change a thing: Song is noise and noise is life, so love it when it's bad... From Mary Jane Mary Jane, she went insane, put a pistol to her belly and shot 3 times. Blood was everywhere but Mary Jane survived, singing, "I can't even die to save my life!" You got to live it till it's over, keep the feeling alive. You can't ask for nothin', like and death will find you, so keep the feeling alive...
From Winter Days Those winter days, they keep on goin'; it's summertime but the cold wind is blowin': I can't shake em'-- those winter days, they've got a hold on me. Winter days, bluer in the sunshine, Win or lose, I can't keep from sighing, Birds are singing, but all I hear is lies. | From Next Ice Age Run, run, run. But there's no escape. Everybody's running to the next earthquake. Three Mile Island's sinking Our ignorance is thinking. It was built too fast-- we'll be cursed to see it last. Next ice age, Run, Run, Run... From Hustle Me You hustle me I hustle you. Ripping each off's the only thing we do... Hustle me, baby, got nothing but love. Hustle me, honey, you know I can't get enough. You try to snow me, it's nothing but rain. It's all the same, it's all the same... |
