about

A song For Rady.

lyrics

Never been a rich man
I've certainly wasted my share
Long as I can keep you safe
I'm guessing you won't even care

When I first heard the news
I figured I could change
As time elasticated on you see
A few bad habits remained

But it gives me the strength for a few more tries
As I look into your almond eyes
Well it gives me the strength for a few more tries
As I look into your almond eyes

Never been a wise man
Could certainly call me a fool
Never made it through high school
I thought I was too cool

Now you come to me for some sage guidance or advice
I ain't got a thing to offer 'cept
If it scares you don't think twice

But it gives me the guts for a few more tries
As I look into your almond eyes
Well it gives me the guts for a few more tries
As I look into your almond eyes

Always looked out for answers
Never looking inside
When you find a peace in you
I hoping you know that I tried

To give you more
Than was ever offered up to me
But it's all subjective 'cause you see
Two plus two ain't three

But it gives me the strength for a few more times
As I look into your almond eyes
Yeah it gives me the strength for a few more tries
As I look into your almond eyes
Well it gives me the guts for a few more tries
As I look into your almond eyes
Yeah it gives me the strength for a few more tries
As I look into your almond eyes

Ernie Buck Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Lo-Fi Post Punk Garage Rock. Laughing, crooning and snarling in the face of nihilism.
Minimalist defiance, with a slice of lime. Cod-philosophical wannabe Pop with frayed edges. The sound of the absurd.
