about

This was written in one afternoon when I was having a bad day but it still came out sounding like brit pop

lyrics

When it feels like I've lost the fight, When that silver lining in the great grey sky
must be some sword of Damocles hanging over head, well it's probably best if I just stay in bed
Got a couch go get some rocky road, we can hide in here from that big bad world
Let the thunderheads build roll in from the sea, we'll sit here together share our Misery

Here comes the rain for my parade,
thought I had it good thought I had it made
Well it turns out it was all just one big charade
Here comes the rain for my parade
Got a mountain of lemons don't like lemonade
Had a hole full of aces but they've all been played
and I kept on hitting when I should have stayed
Here comes the rain for my parade

What to say that can make it right, take us out of the darkness and into the light
Everything was easier yesterday, I knew what to do you wanted to stay
Everything good turned to bad, Making you happy makes you sad
Now you're out on your own hear you're doing well, I'm festering here the black clouds swell

Here comes the rain for my parade,
thought I had it good thought I had it made
Well it turns out it was all just one big charade
Here comes the rain for my parade
Got a mountain of lemons don't like lemonade
Had a hole full of aces but they've all been played
and I kept on hitting when I should have stayed
Here comes the rain for my parade

An Infinite Number of Chimps Simi Valley, California

If an infinite number of chimps sat at typewriters and pianos, statistically one of them is guaranteed to come up with a work of genius. I'm hoping for that bolt out of the blue to hit me and in the meantime write and record my stuff anyway.
It certainly helps to be based in southern California where the sky is always blue, the sun is always shining and the beer is cool ... more
