Belly Full Of Bullets 03:19
lyrics

You scurry from the house You're a busy man Gotta make the dollar Gotta work that tan Maybe have some breakfast You're a southern charmer Reachin' for your peach Is she the one the warns you To shoot from the heart come on let's aim you Point you to the moon Up to the ones that made you I'm stuck inside I wanna live in the backyard When I'm stuck inside I wanna Play in the dirt I'm stuck inside I wanna live in the backyard When I'm stuck inside Drivin' in my maserati It's naughty I gotta Rotti And a belly full of bullets And the basics of the ones who made me Who save me Every morning from the secrets underground Where their cookin' With the magic heathens I see them Reach for another lump of Thumpy magic sugar boy It's gonna be so sweet and tasty They make it For the lovers of explorin' under covers And how'd I get to be so wasted I'm face down Laying here beside that growler that you gave me Aint it funny how a face can name you Explain you Like a blueprint of the livin' All the givin' that you did To swing on by and meet me And greet me here alone Where we walk among the stars.

I Nate, and The Turkish Rockstars 07:52
lyrics
Momma's in the kitchen And the griddle's hot There's bacon on the back burner Coffee in the pot The sun goes down The sun comes up Smoke rings in the air And the laughs don't stop

In The Grove 06:12
lyrics

You held my head from fire And waved my hand in compliance And stole my shoes And read your coin That told you to loose And burn the last field In the grove You turned my share to silence And fed your heart to enlighten And stole my gun And read your coin That told you to play With the devil And his pack of cards See a field in the fire Our fathers melody rolls along It breathes at the gates Upon the jesters lawn Maybe its the city Playing for the masters song I'll wait for a minute But I have to carry on And read my coin That tells me to choose Between the devil And the life I'd loose I'll wait for a minute But I have to carry on I've gone and read my coin And read it all wrong Played my hand And passed when I'm sure to sail along I saw a chimney dug For a house of thugs I'll rest and carry on And lace my shoes With the good stuff

about

These 3 songs we're recorded, filmed, and edited at the SAMEASFOREVER studio in Fredericton, N.B. in less then 24 hours.

The idea was that Jay Merrill and Andrew Kelly would setup their audio and visual equipment and play the same way two kids might play in a sandbox twenty years earlier. Just for the fun of it.

Drew made it look good.
Jay made it sound good.
The songs are originals.

In the end, 3 songs were recorded with a 2-angle HD shot and are
available at www.sameasforever.com as a feature in the
SAMEASFOREVER Sessions Section.

Check out the full 18 minute video there and then head back
here to download the tracks. You can download for free by
putting $0 into the order. Feel free donate if you want but it's
not necessary.
