And help horus8 & the werewolves move up the charts.
She's got a cocaine habit
Call her Briar-Rabbit
With her popcorn charm
You'd better get a house alarm.
She's got friends in her car
They're heading for a bar
It must be amateur night
The Barbie-doll cock-fight.
Limelight blues, looking for clues
With her push up bra, Mcdonald's straw
Everything's the same like when you first came
with your cocaine, puff, toot, and blow
Chrystal-Meth, doesn't make you slow
But the Heroin gets you up, it makes you go-go
'till No-Doze are like tic-tacs now.
With your butane arm
Everything's up for stakes
High-five grab
Loose flab
Lips talking shit, smack in her purse
Everything's right, and everything's rehearsed
She's got a hidden agenda
She's spreading her propaganda.
Cuz they're so damn bored now
I guess that it serves them the same
Now that they know who's to blame
Until everything's fine, at the drive in now
Yes, everything's fine, at the drive in now.
I hear you're looking for a new guy to cling onto
I hope he serves you right, I hope he serves you well
I pray he's got a Trans-am, and he takes you both
straight to hell.
Mustached Burt Reynolds
Tight jeaned, money roll
With a pack of Marlboro lights
He's got fortune teller hands and palm reading demands.
He tells you everything's fine, at the drive in now
Yes, everything's fine at the drive in now
So everything's fine at the drive in now?
Yes, everyone's fine at the drive in now.
But I know I will never get to see this movie again
Somehow, nothing's the same, but the drive in now.

Interesting. Loved the commentary. Made my day. Robinrae.

This is really good! I like the song, it's... different. It sounds a little bit like you took the all the best qualities of french chansons of the 1950's, translated them to English and modernized them. For me this feels critical but not preachy, more like cynical. I must admit I've read through the lyrics many times and I'm still not entirely sure I understand them completely - but I do understnad them enough to like them! This line was brilliant: "Everything's right, and everything's rehearsed"
Well done.

Perhaps, but nothing is quite as GAY as calling oneself princessofshade... LOL
that's quite possibly the gayest of all. Of course... princessofgayde might indeed even be gayer, what do you think? On my gaydar, I think the term princess in general, especially coming out of a trailer park in the midwest, does allow a person to declare an advanced knowledge of queerdom, thank you for your in depth critique and obvious understanding of the penis and vagina. You'll marry well
one day, possibly, the straightest fag alive. -
So, is this a song?
I think i'll click the link and listen to it.
It is, of course, excellent. One of your best.

I'll listen to this! It sounds pretty good! But the picture of the guy- I'm not a homophobe, but he looks really gay. And not just gay, like... AMBIGUOUSLY gay! Lol- sorry if that's you! I feel ashamed now!
Shade -
Yep... definitely sounds better on cd... oozing from surround sound speakers.
-
I liked this but the choppyness loses me repeatedly, but the song still is catchy and makes me want to move. Well done. Its a bit to repetitive (the audio) for me though, a bit to simple. Could be faster. But I still like it.

Awesome!!!!!!
Are you the lead vocal on this audio? The gritty sultriness to your voice gives this poem a multifaceted view at a deeply emotional undertaking about life and drugs. -
Very unique one.
I say it is an interesting poem and sort of becomes an anti-drug thing especially with the mustached Burt Reynolds thing. A most interesting read indeed. -
Yo mama?
-
WOW! Realism without the "Oh, I'm gritty" fakiness of Some of the pseudo-rock crap I listened too in the 80's. Springsteen was cool then, now it seems preachy, but this is "heavy" without that false philosophical weightiness. Great!!! I'd check the link, but no speakers!!!!

Inspiring
Trancing out; your beat.
You're the worlds whore.
Take another slip. It'll do you good.
Forty doses at once, not too intence but one hell of a long ride.
Take another one. Whos gonna say its their 25?
No one. -
Thank you for featuring your songs for us. I love the allusions you use. I love songs with multiple layers of meaning.
Funny, I live next door to a drive-in, and I was thinking about going to a double feature tonight, to escape reality for a while. -
How about something new for a change?
-
That was really really really good.
-
superb
I wondered if anyone wrote about drugs ..I found you...very good piece ....excellent ...you captured the life of a drugie and it will never be the same in the aftermath....happy writtings -
if my speakers worked on my computer i would listen to this song. i love it!! even without the music i really liked it i can only immagine what it would be like if you added a background music to it! Great write. when my speakers get fixed ill have to listen to it.

It's a song, you're supposed to listen to it.

It's a song you're supposed to click on the link and listen to it.

Wow, really interesting poem there.

~blinks~
Strange. I feel.. no, I definitely know I'm missing something.
~strings the words together on invisible thread and ties them across her yard, to examine in daylight~
I really adored the first two lines. I know there's references there that... ~shakes head~ No. I'm just missing information somewhere.
I'll come back. Clearly I'm off today. Just didn't want you to think I was ignoring you. -
I liked this piece. Good work.

cool! i really like this piece! I love music and i think i will definatley check some of your stuff out. Lots of emotion expressed here! awsome! great structure as well. very unusual and unique! keep up the great work !
-
Bravo
This sounds like a pyromaniac's wet dream, to be honest. Anyway, definately got some hurting emotions in this piece, mainly overlapped by hatred towards everything. I would listen to the song, but I'm listening to Fear of the Dark by Graveworm, and I'm not gonna change it. Great song man, and bravo -
How glaringly harsh and real this is! There is one (or several) of those in every town, no matter where you find yourself, they will find you.. 'Barbie doll cockfight' thats about the size of it er..
This is just the sordid truth, like a stained sheet hung out to dry..

i liked the way it was in the latter part. the beginning was too structured with the rhyming.
-
If you go to www.gangbox.com and look under mps's
you can take a listen to the song, if you'd like. -
Damn, but I liked the beat of that!
There's something so wonderfully 80's about drive-ins, lol, and the flood of memories of the past mingled in nicely with the killer imagery threaded throughout this piece like strands of molten gold, cooled only the breath of those that understand what 'late hours' REALLY mean, lol. Excellent piece of art.
-
Excellent~
Been there and done that
I don't think I want to go back anytime soon either
Those damn days are long gone an endless cycle
I see you had your drive in days too
Got the pic thanks and hope all is well with you sweetie
Missed ya
Big hugs and love
Susan~~~

Nyx... -
itz funny, reminded me of my teenage years

Is Good.
Hip, Hop, buy a bop knock a shop take a chop.
Smooth, rhythmic and a dozen words to the second -- crack fueled weed crazy words snake outta your mouth and my momma ain't moving away too fast this time, each limp is a station of Christ all by itself, there in the mud. I been down to the drive in and I seen what you do out there behind the projector snack shack.
Yah, okay. I'm synched up now. You gotta reverberate the lobes at just the right frequency or else bad things happen when the words fall in the crack between the hemispheres.
This has a urgent feel to it, kinda hip hop, cool slick hard and young, but it ages by the end verse and we see a more mature poignancy and an unspoken softness. This moves in all the right directions and yet remains mysterious enough for revisiting.
Yah. Okay. I liked it plenty fine. Let's stay for the second show.
