lyrics
We like to dress up like we’re elves
We like to save you from yourselves
You’ll guess our next compulsion
To fly with jet propulsion
Our soldier priestess holds the line
Upon your evil we will dine
We’ll shake our monkeymakers
Tumble like Henson bakers
We’re busy freaking out ourselves
And for a while we’ll try to make you smile
You’ll pay our wage until you die
Creative license
You’ll share with my sense
Of fame and fortune and life and what could bleed us
Out of what flows inside our veins
And all the fears that plague our brains
You might not dare believe us
But you could never leave us
Unless you think we’ve gone insane
I’m almost scared to say this
Oh no, I’ll never say this
Spheres collide in space they made us
Creative license
You’ll share with my sense
Of fame and fortune and life
We really need it
We like to dress up like ourselves
To make you think that we’re not elves
We hide ourselves from you and all of the other humans
And then we dress up like we’re elves
Conspire with all your teachers
And all the lowly creatures
Grace and lust and dreams combined
Inside a blender
We won’t surrender
Until the postmen
They ring the bell forever

and probably more.
Anything by him is worth checking if not owning. A true musical whiz with seemingly infinite hook-filled melodies and killer songs. Start anywhere and this is a good one. Jennifer Jupiter
The songs on this new album are either smooth but tight or rock your world. Above and Beyond their already outstanding sound, "Take out the Poison" will enter your inner being with songs that penetrate your soul through lyrics and music that are uniquely their own. These songs are the most diverse yet similar from their other albums. Listen to their songs they are awesome. The Bye Bye Blackbirds continue to exude their special sound of infinite talent. They have done it again and I believe always will; as if there was ever any doubt about these gifted musicians. Rock on Gentlemen! "Take out the Poison" is a winner ! I am me
