song!!

(consider yourself dared)

quoth polly, & siggimus must concur

here’s a bundle of 3 songs from her upcoming album

uffa puffa!

going certifiably diagnosably batpoop insane over lost in the trees these days

lost in the trees knitting

dare you to try and resist this stuff

all alone in an empty house

i spent my whole life on you
and i built you a gorgeous house
to put up with your bitched mouth
and i’ve thrown all my dreams right out

and i’m so selfless here
i’m so selfless here
theres a cloud in my head
i’m so selfless here

and what do u want from me
i’ve burried my own babies
and i live all lone in an empty house
i’ve thrown all my dreams right out

and i’m so lonely here
i’m so lonely here
theres a cloud in my head
i’m so lonely here

so i tend the garden
tend the garden
tend the garden
tend the garden
tend the garden
tend the garden
tend the garden
build the stone wall
what are you hiding
what are you hiding
what are you hiding
is something dirty
something dirty
what are you hiding
what are you hiding
something dirty
where’s the baby
where’s the baby
where’s the baby
go the baby
you touched the baby
you must be crazy
i must be crazy
i touched the baby
hide in the tower
hide in the tower
hide in the tower
right in the tower
right in the tower
right in the tower
right in the tower
for all i care ’cause i hear your soul
and how i hate your soul
will the church protect me
how i hate your soul
are we leaving
are we ever leaving
we’ve got black spots in our eyes
are we ever leaving
no where
never meant to hurt anyone
never meant to hurt anyone
no plunge holes into the wall
but never hurt anyone
no, no one is perfect
and, no one is perfect
we’ve got holes in our heart
no one is perfect

walk around the lake (a proper video!)

Lost in the Trees – “Walk Around The Lake” from Trekky Records on Vimeo.

song for the painter

& as a bonus, their tiny desk concert at npr. two of the three above again, but different versions + you get to see them!

white on white translucent black capes
back on the rack
bela lugosi’s dead
the bats have left the bell tower
the victims have been bled
red velvet lines the black box
bela lugosi’s dead
undead undead undead
the virginal brides file past his tomb
strewn with time’s dead flowers
bereft in deathly bloom
alone in a darkened room
the count
bela logosi’s dead
undead undead undead
