about

Starting off the song cycle with a song from last year (all further songs will be written/recorded in the week of the post).

Uh-Oh!’s a rocker from my dance-punk group, the Hey!, with Alex Nifong on drums. It’s a sweet little ditty about the enjoyment of playing rock music with your three best friends.

lyrics

Three boys and a world to see
We gotta keep our heads together, gotta follow the leads
And the villain is the bug gonna put us to sleep
Gonna make us shake fists put the knife in the dream

Well kick me once and I’m still asleep
But you could wake me with yer backyard beats
The boys hit the wall and they thumpin they feet
Get my body in da motion get me sayin to me, I say:

Uh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!

I got hands and a heart that heaves
For the sticky sweet scent of the bum-bully bees
But the jelly sink low in the junkyard heat
Need the rattle of a breath just to keep its feet

We like to keep it in the family tree
I hit the guitar, he kicks the beats
Then he lays line like electric pipes
And the song spits back wid da bump and grind and go:

Uh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!

Wid a cherry on top we’re the sundae ta beat
Feral like a weekend in ya memory
So the songbird sings in the aural lights
Puts the spikes in the honey like a porcupine

Ain’t no one gonna take me to my bed but me
And no one gonna tuck me but my loverly three
Hear my voice bounce back in the harmony
Hear my words send me off to the dark country, I hear a:

Uh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!
