about

Inspired by Miss R. and our brief cold war, and the death of my step grandfather. Exciting times.

Originally released as part of a 7 song EP in 2008 under the name Efrain Calderon.

lyrics

There's an awfully sick smell of death in here, but if I don't carry him then who will? So I take my place in the six man race. A walrus grizzly paul bear's place. Goodbye to the night. Hello to the air. Goodbye to you sir. I'll soon see you there.

Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby.

But I know that one and one and one make three. You're the lying kind. You're unhappy with me, and I was mistreated repeatedly. Oh, you biting snake. Oh, unfaithful me.

The categories are too easy. The possessed and the possessive, and the rest make three. Let the lawyers do their best with me, and as for unrest don't you dare forget me.

Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby.

This allegory story seems cheesy. Don't tear me to shreds before I take the knife to me. Don't speak in tongues to hell with epiphany. Coffee over green tea. Army over hunting. I think I'm on to something. You're proving it to me.

Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby.

This story begins at the end of one man, and the loss of your heart to the burial hand. So every blade of green grass like your infantry. Lock up all your daughters -- beware of me. beware of me. be aware of me.

Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well read me a story while I sing the lullaby.

Sweetie you look so good in your dark black robe with your scythe in your hand upon your throne. You've got 55 reasons for me to die. Well you've got yours and I've got mine.
