about

I wrote this in summer school whilst reading Stephen King's IT. It's definitely about the book.

lyrics

I weigh my stash on the daily

From across the town my good ol' friend comes my way.
His name is Bobby, Bobby Gray, have you ever heard of a more fancier name?
He's about 6 feet tall, he's a big burly dude with a killer smile.
He does drag on the side.
When I see Bobby Gray I am so surprised to see the silver in his eyes glimmering in the sun. Who knew it'd be so bright in the night?
He offers me a weak handshake and tells me, "Buddy ol' pal, I need a place to stay." I say, "Pennywise," cuz that's his nickname, "I got a wife and kid at home and there's no more room."
He looks at me with a steady bright eye and tells me that I won't survive. No, I won't survive.
I won't live to tell my tale.
He jumps, spins around, he can't contain himself; so I shoot him in the face with a nickel and dime and run away with my secret stash and hurry on home to weigh what I have.
And when I get there the walls are covered in blood.
Dripping in what looks like a raspberry flood.
Suddenly I feel a very sharp pain in my eye and immediately I am half blind.
And then I die along with my kid and wife with my stash still in hand and I'm not even baked.

I like to listen to music and make music, hey, what a coinkydink!

I'm inspired by many artists both living and dead, and by non-artists also living and dead. I like to write songs about people I encounter, or things that I like, sometimes things that I hate, or how I feel. I really hope you enjoy what you hear and you help feed me! ... more
