Lyrics, ‘Sunny’
She gets me
to forget me
And oh, I suppose
it’s healthy
the disease
Yeah, we’ll watch it grow
and yet we
so gently
seek hands to hold
we’re friendly
oh, attend me!
I’m never so bold
But I’ll take my chances honey
before I grow old
likeable, charming, funny
and handsome I’m told
I’ll take my chances honey
before I grow old
make hay while it’s still sunny
I’ll take on the world
Just let me
forget me
though these days aren’t old
I’m resting
no blessing
I’m never so bold
obsessing
but missing
the pointlessness, doll
my darling
I’m falling
into a black hole
But I’ll take my chances honey
before I grow old
likeable, charming, funny
and handsome I’m told
I’ll take my chances honey
before I grow old
make hay while it’s still sunny
I’ll take on the world
I’ll take my chances honey
before I grow old
likeable, charming, funny
and handsome I’m told
oh, I took my chances honey
but now I am old!
Make hay while it’s still sunny
I’ll take on the world

Just The Tip (Shoot The Single)
We’re releasing a single soon… I’m not even sure why I’m writing here, as I can’t say much about it. Teasing I guess =D just the tip! But seriously, we’re looking to release said single in only a few short months from now, along with a few accompaniments to please the eye and ear. If you haven’t already, make sure you head over to the Shoot The Stork facebook page (www.facebook.com/shootthestork) and hit the button that says ‘Like’…. and please don’t press the button that says ‘Free Brownies!’. There will not be any free brownies.

You know what I love about Dylan, well many things, but one of the smaller things is his delightful accent, turning words like “can’t” into “cunt.” I could never pull something like that off. PS> new recordings on the way, our first official release!
Lyrics, ‘Heaven Scent’
Emptily threatens me
but from tasting the air with my tongue
I can see she’s testing me
tasting the fear of the young
I notice that which this focus lacks
oh, I tend this garden’s needs
but filled with bracken, sunflower’s and flax
i am no more than a snake among weeds
Heaven sent an angel
to earth without her wings
poor thing stands there staring at the sky
thinking awful things
Even though we’re pedigree
all raised to look the same
all ten fingers, all ten toes
two eyes, one nose, one brain
essentially this menagerie
needs more than the warmth of the sun
needs less love, needs more pain
requires more fire than fun
Heaven sent an angel
to earth without her wings
poor thing stands there staring at the sky
dreaming awful dreams
honestly thought she held a promise
from God himself
but I guess she lost it
when she fell
Oh, when she fell
all the way down…
Laaaaast Niiiiiight…
…we finished the vocals for our single, and we should be throwing that to the masses very shortly! There are actually two songs we did, ‘Sunny’ and ‘You’re With The Band’ (we’re calling the latter a b-side)…. I did vocals for both a few weeks ago, but my voice was tired, sounded strained, etc. etc., so we did ‘em again and they sound grrrrreat! Also, Joel got some video that we’ll be using to make… well, videos. Duh. Derp. Gosh, I’m tired, recording takes it outta you. But yeah, music videos, singles and tit banners all on the way!
Speaking of tit banners, we performed at the Silver Dollar on Thursday night, and it went quite spectacularly! Some photos were taken, and some links will be posted. There was no tit banner, but maybe, one day soon, there will be. That’s all about that for now, but more soon!
Jam tomorrow,
- Dylan
