This song is the culmination of many stories to one grand adventure.. From an evening I spent galavanting about Glebe at night - sneaking into the old abbey on bridge rd to many cycling trips to bronte beach I was doing at the time of writing.. That time being... about 2009.
The song has been edited many times.. and still is.. I will decide on a final cut and record it this year (well hopefully).
lyrics
Cemetery Disco
Rolling aluminium down the road, against the natural resistance code, pushing on the pedals beats the pedal to the metal and I'm aiming for the beach cause it's where I'd like to settle.
As loose as a clown on a mission uptown, to the park after dark, for a dippery slip on the slippery dip, don't be slack have a crack on the elephants back.
At the cemetery disco.
Young innocence let loose on the swings, you feel as free as the wings, on the toys that santa he brings.
As I was walking up the road I saw a man converse with a toad, he said "oh man you must make haste, and keep your eyes in front of your face!".
Rolling mercurinium down the walls, burning all the pages of the leather-bound-law. Lurking in the shadows stood a man by the door with a billiard for an eye and no hand but a claw. he said "beware your bombastic brovanity, inspired by insatiable insanity. Don't disturb the dead during the dance of disenchantity, this once was a house of god".
But I don't think jesus would approve anymore of the cemetery disco on the Abbey's floor.
Boogie down.
To the cemetery disco.
Brother Max's band, I used to play drums in. I've watched the sound grow from death-defying prog rock to electro-swinging-carni-hop, and the immense determination put in is always deeply inspiring. Tommy D Tommee D
