We need poets, we need painters we need poets, we need painters we need poetry and paintings Narrow minds are weapons made for mass destruction file them under giant ass seduction Sheep with crazy leaders heading for disaster courting jesters who take themselves for masters The shrub who took himself for a park the squeak who took himself for a bark We need poets, we need painters we need poets, we need painters we need poetry and paintings We need filmers and writers, dancers, musicians actors and sculptors, bakers, electricians thinkers and doctors, cyclists, and builders lovers, friends, and neighbours, and others filmers, writers, dancers, musicians poets and painters, poets and painters

Okay, here ya go. Just a couple of notes… these songs have basic structures (eg. 4 of this, 8 of that) but any of that can be changed to your liking It could well be that you find yourself taking a shine to one particular part in a song and only want that part repeated ad infinitum and only want that part repeated ad infinitum and only want that part repeated ad infinitum and only want that part repeated… no problem These sketches are pretty much two guitars but we took the liberty to add on some simple percussion which might aid in making the beats easier to define for you (and for ourselves for that matter!) Live, as you can hear, we can play in the regular Two Pin Din setup of just two electric guitars Don't mind the cryptic names of our effort, you know how that goes, we're sure: "Yesterday" by the Beatles started it's hideous life as "Scrambled Eggs", apparently a much better title and subject matter as far as we're concerned… "Scrambled Eggs… all my omelets taste like saddlebags…" but we digress: tell us if the links don't work and we'll just mail you the songs.

Red Muck 04:00
Many red devils ran from my heart and out upon the page they were so tiny the pen could mash them they were so tiny the pen could smash them bash them, crash them, harass them lash them, slash them, trash them and many of them little red devils struggled in the ink it was strange, it was strange, it was strange to write in this red muck… to write in this red muck of things from my heart Based on a text by Stephen Crane (1871-1900), small additions by Mr. S.
