[VERSE]
It came in a flash
Agonized and re-hashed
Just a twist of a mustache, I'll be tying the Muse to the tracks.
[PRE-CHORUS]
I'll be riding the lightning, eighty billion wires,
Toward a boon or a dead end, now I'm touched with fire-
That which was lifeless now respires.
[CHORUS]
Idle doodles or dreams, rising off of the page
Call me an Idea Man, a Muse in a cage
Superman or a Clark Kent, no, I am the booth
Call me an Idea Man, transformer of the truth
[VERSE]
For a couple of yucks
Or a couple of bucks
No, no such luck
Content consumers all say,
[PRE-CHORUS]
"For the love of the game, you'd still show up to play
You ain't got any leverage, we ain't gonna pay
¿What's an Idea, anyway?
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
The Lightbulb broke
Such a cruel, cruel joke
I'm never-ever late payin' that electricity bill,
I'm risin' to the occasion to fill a void that will never fill.
Now, I'm a dark horse stirrin' up
Every manner of dark force for the Champions Cup
Give a giddy-giddy-giddy-giddy-giddy-giddy-
Giddy-giddy-giddy-giddy-up until I'm
Saddled, embattled, no, my
Demons all tattled on me
[PRE-CHORUS]
Now I'm breakin' away, and there's no looking back,
Ain't no thinkin' or dreamin', only hooves on track,
Yes, I'm breakin' the ground where castles once were shacks-
And highways were once cul-de-sacs
"Manzanita," "Lessons in Laughing" and "My Love is a Lightning Rod" are my favorites on this well-crafted, inspired cross-pollination of folk and electronic musics. ¡Makes me wanna holler! Honky Gabacho
Cacophonous mash of noise, electronic sounds and vocals powered by energetic walls of drums. Listen loud, jump often. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 28, 2014
