an original

So many many months ago, I said I would write a song and perform at an open mic...
well I've finally done so.

I wrote it in late september, early october (I think... it was the week after parents weekend... what a wild time) and performed on October 6th at the Blackbird Cafe. Remarkable, no one threw rotten tomatoes at me. That was nice of them.

so here are the lyrics since I cannot climb through the internet and sing the song to you.


Twitchin' Fingers
I just had the craziest dream
you saw the yeti wearing stone-washed jeans
and we were so, so confused
there were apples in the stereo
and I couldn't stop laughing
you were quoting Mario

and I awoke with twitchin' fingers
and oh that taste it lingers in my mouth
so can you blame me?
I'm hitchin' out

Don't know when I lost my head
but that surely was a surprise
'Cause last thing I knew
I was flirtin' with a Hungarian Horntail
He was following me with his beady little eyes

and I awoke with twitchin' fingers
and oh that taste it lingers in my mouth
so can you blame me?
I'm hitchin' out

It seems no matter what I did in that dream last night
I kept stumblin'
and slipped right down a mountain side
and fell into a lake
oh it had to be at least
eight miles wide

and I awoke with twitchin' fingers
and oh that taste it lingers in my mouth
so can you blame me?
I'm hitchin' out

I just had the craziest dream
you saw the yeti wearing stone-washed jeans

throwing bones

why'd you think I'd put out your fire?
why'd you think I'd put out your fire?

Don't you know ...
I breathe in fire,
breathe out fire?
