There’s a monster leaking sideways I don’t know which way my mind is I’m driving down the highway To extract my last charade I like my nonsense ‘cus my senses are none The life of the party has died in the fun Take a bump off the bumper And enter the surrender bender What’s the weather, don’t know whether Time will ever make it better I recount my old regrets In rusty cars and cigarettes I’m morose my rose has thorns My macabre dancing lord And when nothing else is calling When everything else is falling There’s an earth, there’s a quake We preach our last mistake In the sewer sewing new worlds That sank in a rat attack Still keep running on an empty tank The feelers vision to turn on the ignition mission What decisions reach fruition Gazing through electric vision I recount my old regrets In rusty cars and cigarettes I’m morose my rose has thorns My macabre dancing lord Tell me sweetheart did you find That we’ve been stung out on the run Busy bee of make believe Electro Junction calamity From up here we got it all revolving Incarnation of the storm that’s pouring Clear away, give it up then up again In the sin and in the wing Both two arms that cross in us hold on Bless this mess we’re in Then I’m dusting off my blank slate Can we turn the tales of our fate The new tabula rasa has risen in the sun I like my nonsense where my senses begun But to grow out of knowing where it could be found A mind out of mindless To sculpt the marble out of madness Thunder from the wonderful Blasting from the kingdom to I recount my old regrets In rusty cars and cigarettes I’m morose my rose has thorns My macabre dancing lord Tell me sweetheart did you find That we’ve been stung out on the run Busy bee of make believe Electro Junction calamity

Sing King Lyrics: Down the drain Flavour the rain Flower the time Favour the shine Many many makers Not so many takers I can’t be bothered With all this bother Sing King sinking fa la la Let no others get inside Do what you must and be done with it You gotta leave your past behind Inside the eternal eye Inside the eternal eye Up in smoke Fanatic joke Sour inside Savour the wine Lots and lots of shakers, movers and the achors Search for the power within these hours Sing King sinking fa la la Let no others get inside Do what you must and be done with it You gotta leave your past behind Inside the eternal eye Inside the eternal eye Swearing in the forest If I’m being honest I could go a hundred times Oh we never get it right Swearing on the light That’s keeping us alive But do some gardening do some weeding Oh it is the masters season Sing King sinking fa la la Let no others get inside Do what you must and be done with it You gotta leave your past behind Inside the eternal eye Sing King sinking fa la la Let no others get inside Do what you must and be done with it You gotta leave the past behind Inside the eternal eye Sing King sinking fa la la Let no others get inside Do what you must and be done with it You gotta leave your past behind Inside the eternal eye Inside the eternal eye Inside the eternal eye Oh inside the eternal eye Sing King fa la la

The individuals gone, I feel the earth in a song You gotta preach to the better ones The individuals done from where we begun You gotta preach to the better ones Chest of dress up, play the song again for me please It’s a peculiar time It’s a peculiar sound Can we leave it please? Can we just leave it please? Chester Chester at the end of the road He really liked to show what I could never know Baby in the dark I have never felt so far apart In a unions side Oxymoronic sigh Chest of dress up, play that song again for me please The individuals gone, I find the earth in a song I feel the earth move and that’s just that Tossing and turning and feeling all my ruminations Of it gotta be, can never be as magic would make it be An illumines cry, for a miraculous sign Chest of dress up, play that song again for me please The arrow is turning, baby what’s yearning I could be happy I could be so many things Life is a journey, the patience to know the I could be anything, I could be anything, I could be anythings And the treacherous ground, forth or round and round Chest of dress up, play that song again for me please Oh it looks so sweet The opportunist song The faithful words to a fatal cause Hot air don’t care hot smoke oxygen moron I find the world to be so cruel, I find the world to be so rude I find the world to be forever sealing cracks and healing Playing with the line, set the world on fire, set the world on fire Chest of dress up, play that song again for oh Chest of dress up, play that song again for me oh Chest of dress up, play that song again for me Oh oh oh oh oh

about

The Chest of Dress Up EP was born in a whirlwind of words to paper and the banging of keys. The EP is fragments of my poetry and reflections, grounded in metaphor and fantasy. Its my small token to growth through compression and expansion into better spaces. It’s a love letter to the sensitive, expressive souls navigating oppressive, and increasingly outdated narratives.
