The New Not So Normal

about

Inspired by Hawksley Workman tweet in March 2020, this a dark plague themed anthem that gets ever so slightly brighter at the end...

lyrics

Sitting here in my health, jealous of the birds
Congregating on the lawn, imagining the words:
“Good morning Mr. Grackle” “Oh, hello Mr. Jay!”
Pleasantries exchanged and then we’re off and on our way
Like we used to do…

Beware the Ides of March, the oracle complained
Mercutio got pissed off and he wished upon a plague
Billy whispered in my Lear, we’re running out of rhymes
‘Tis the plague of our time when the madmen lead the blind’
Like we told them to…

It’s the new… not, so, normal…

The first horse is the king of donkeys, eyes as black as spades
The second one is waiting, red blood dripping from his blade
The third horse has a halo and he’s hiding in our breath
The oracle is laughing ‘cause there’s only one horse left
And he’s coming soon…

It’s the new…

The Oracle is dancing
Mr. Grackle stirs the pot
The month of May is coming,
New growth springs forth from the rot
There’s a brand new sun, born today

about

Bruce Enloe Kemptville, Ontario

Genre Fluid.

Yes, some of it is funny, but not all of it... and, yes, some of it sweet, but it's not just that either. Some of it is weird... because... cantaloupe!

All of it is lyric driven songwriting at the core from a well traveled musician based in Kemptville, Ontario who is widely known for playing at Farmers' Markets in exchange for free vegetables.

Will work for beets.
