Mother of Pearl

Hot buns, white trash romance,
Ruby Falls dripping down your thighs.
Have you seen my Rock City?
Lookout Mountain’s gleaming in my eyes.
Riding you like the Chattanooga Choo Choo,
nice & slow like a biscuit to rise.
Delta Queen, she’s keeping me afloat,
an image burned into my mind.
We’ll take the Lover’s Leap,
see seven states before you die.
Inside Fairyland Caverns,
looking for the gem that shines & glows.
Crushed in the Fat Man Squeeze,
got helped out by a pack of gnomes.
Appalachian station,
metal masturbation.
I got my fingers on the mother of pearl.

Doom and Gloom
03:37
|

|
Lies, flies, stinging my eyes.
Close calls and distant cries.
Sleazy cheese got me on my knees
and your bites are like the fleas & bees.
Don’t worry ‘bout me baby,
I aint gonna hear your cries no more.
My times a wastin baby, I aint the target you’re aiming for.
Spooky poots coming from my boots,
shitty shits done drowned my roots.
Change the color of all my suits,
you don’t know me.
Burned all your letters baby,
I don’t wanna read forgotten lore.
That smoke,
don’t choke,
you only deaf to the words that I spoke.
And I wish the devil would take you.
Doom & Gloom walked outta the tomb,
they was complaining that there was no room.
Damn bitch done stole my broom,
so it’s as dirty as you can assume.
I’m off that cross now baby,
I’m on the road that leads from you.
This drink, don’t stink,
my head is heavy and it’s starting to sink.
My world is better without you now.

Dinorider

I feel the wind blow,
I can smell the thunder.
Atop this Jurassic beast,
I pillage & I plunder.
No one can stop me now,
aint no saint gonna save your soul.
No one can stop me now.
DinoRider!
Lightning flashes before me,
a war hammer strapped across my back.
In the valley, where the Snow Snakes breed,
a double rainbow slowly fades to black.
No one can stop me now,
ain't no saint gonna save your soul.
No one can stop me now.
DinoRider!
I see the vultures fly,
high up above my head.
In the moonlight,
past the waterfalls,
the blood of Unicorns awakes the dead.
DinoRider!

Tampa Bound

Tampa bound,
Gum Slough,
doo doo in a dixie cup.
Lord I been living in hell & now I’d do
anything to give it up.
Everyday I’m getting deeper
on my way to meet the reaper,
somehow I got to get away.
Don’t wanna keep up with the Jones’
wanna rest my achin' boneses.
To you I got one thing to say.
That ain't the way life’s supposed to be,
you don’t get it no you don’t get it.
9 to 5 won’t be the death of me,
I won’t let it, no I won’t let it.
It’s just the end of the means, that’s all it means to me.
So keep this job & shove it,
some of you may really
love, but I know it ain't the one for me.
Rather live from day to day
than sell myself for your pay,
be broke but have my soul to keep.
You dig your grave with a spoon,
life’s ending every afternoon,
but you ain't living anyway.
So keep your sorry life
to impress your plastic wife.
For me it just ain't the way.
It’s my life,
not gonna give it up,
No white flags
& no time clocks.
Its my life,
not gonna give it up,
No time clocks,
no white flags.

As they gnash their teeth
and stare in disbelief,
the pod has been unleashed.
Out of the galaxy
to save humanity
from our calamity.
Despite all our tears,
in light of all our fears,
they split the atmosphere.
To judge the human race
from deep in outer space
and be our saving grace.
Space Dolphins in space!
They hover in the sky,
look into human eye,
see how we cheat and lie.
How we destroy our land,
oil in the sand,
we kill the pelican.
Filled with hate and crime,
The deaf rule the blind,
earth’s not worth their time.
They turn around and leave,
away from this disease,
for us they will not grieve.
Space Dolphins in Space!
Space dolphins
soaring to the stars,
to a better place,
a better world than ours.
Space dolphins
flipping over Mars,
to a better place,
a better world than ours

Stuck
03:41

I’m stuck again,
I’m drunk again.
Oh when oh when will it ever end?
This little bubble that we’re living in.
I never felt so lonely,
please set me free.
You stuck it to me like I knew you would.
You got me doing things I never should.
Turned into something thought I’d never be.
I’m stuck again,
I’m drunk again,
between hell & a hard place every day.
I’ve tried & I try but I can’t get away.
So now I’m wondering,
is it gonna last.
When every day you’re bringing up the past.
Let sleeping dogs lay where they be.
So here I am on drink 17,
but still your walls are closing in on me.
I never thought your love would be the death of me.
I’m stuck again,
I’m drunk again,
between hell & a hard place every day.
I’ve tried & I try but I can’t get away.
Now here we go again,
same old problems.
Time to drink another, let it comfort me.
Now here we go again,
same old problems.
If I drink another,
death will come for me.
I’m stuck again,
I’m drunk again,
between hell & a hard place every day.
I’ve tried & I try but I can’t get away.

You know I love ya baby,
you know I care,
you know I need ya honey.
You know I want ya baby,
but you’re not there,
it really hurts me baby.
‘Cause every time I try
I get excuses & denied,
it’s time I had my fill.
I’ve heard it all before,
breakin' down the door.
This time I will.
Every time I look for you,
you’re running away from me.
Every time I reach for you,
you’re gone.
Got your demons & your scars
& they kept you away from me.
It’s been going on for far too long.
This coulda been a love song.
I’m getting weary bay,
of all your games.
Why is it like this honey?
I really miss ya baby,
you’re not the same.
Come here & kiss me baby.
Been waitin day & night,
well you know it just ain't right,
to keep me away.
I bend until I break,
all that I can take,
today could be the day

Black Dawn
05:06

|
Look to the south,
you’ll see my soul,
see my eyes,
hear my words that you cannot control.
Your farms & fields,
they are a waste land,
burned to the ground from the flames of my hands, yeah.
You jump on the road & chase the sun,
fools will follow.
Trail of the blind leaves a master unkind,
there’ll be no tomorrow.
You jump on the road & chase the sun,
beggars will borrow.
You’re left all alone when the day is done.
Black Dawn!
High atop the Mount,
that’s where I reign.
As I descend,
you defend,
but it’s only in vain.
When the Children Cry,
a White Lion dies
and the wolves at your door
consume you with lies.
You jump on the road & chase the sun,
fools will follow.
Trail of the blind leaves a master unkind,
there’ll be no tomorrow.
You jump on the road & chase the sun,
beggars will borrow.
You’re left all alone when the day is done.
Black Dawn!
Hail from the sky,
comes the Lord and the light
& from his hand
comes a bright white lightening light.
And from the hole from the soul,
comes the demon within.
You best believe me my friend,
I’m gonna see you again,
my friend.
You jump on the road & chase the sun,
fools will follow.
Trail of the blind leaves a master unkind,
there’ll be no tomorrow.
You jump on the road & chase the sun,
beggars will borrow.
You’re left all alone when the day is done.

Mistress
04:10
|

|
Metal from the swing set,
brother & me.
Split the mattress to hide the LPs.
Keep safe the sound Mama said rots my mid.
She cannot burn what she cannot find.
Metal from the basement,
moldy red clay.
Sleeping on crackhead concrete
with even less pay.
Living for the 40 of a 1440 grind,
and that’s the picture behind this frame of mind.
Dark times are coming,
but I welcome them in.
I get no rest when I obsess,
over my mistress.
I have devils in me,
they slaughter my nerves & raid my dreams.
They’re guaranteed,
to puppet my idol hands to extremes.
So it seems,
restless obsession,
tranquilizes me.
Dark times are coming,
but I welcome them in.
I get no rest when I obsess,
over my mistress.

Rock and Roll

How many times must I tell ya baby?
That you’re dirty little lies ‘bout to drive me crazy.
Caught you messing around with another man,
now you’re laying it down for an upper hand.
Now you found a rich man to take care of you,
give ya everything you want, never make ya blue.
Well, you finally found that golden dream.
Life couldn’t get no better for you it seems.
You got your house on the hill,
you got your fancy car,
living high on the hog
& smoking fine cigars.
Life couldn’t get no better
for you I’m told. You got it all,
but all I got is rock n roll.
Well you had your shit tight
& it was alright,
but your man wasn’t with your plan.
Now you’re out on your ass
& your car’s outta gas,
come try and catch me if you can.
Seems like the grass wasn’t greener
on the other side,
and your pretty little dream
was taken for a ride.
Instead of down on your knees,
your down on your luck.
Instead of teasing & pleasing,
now you’re getting stuck.
You got no house on the hill,
you no your fancy car ,
he’s living high on the hog,
but that ain't where you are.
Life couldn’t get no harder
for you I’m told.
You lost it all,
but I still got my rock n roll.

RËD RÖCKËT DËLÜXË Atlanta, Georgia
RED ROCKET DELUXE are an Atlanta-based hard rock/heavy metal band. They combine the posture of 80's metal, the jest of party
rock and the sonic impact of a sludge band. Members Randy King, Brandon Forsyth, Jon Wheeler and Marco Gollarza invest heavily in their songwriting and performance while lovingly poking fun at the absurdities of the genre.
Stated simply, they are KISS meets Kyuss.
