'Glass Jaw' - Greeny Original

[Greeny]

It's Monday (again...), so here's a psychedelic(ish) soup of acoustic guitar, bass, danelectro, and vocals, plus mellotron flute, strings and a dash of cello. All recorded and mixed on the MBR. Probably over-did it really. Never mind - onwards and upwards!  

'Glass Jaw' written and performed by Greeny

when the chill descends don't let it in
cup your hands around the flame within
cause lovers can be fighters when the occasion demands it
bob and weave when the storm breaks
and it might save your skin

don't have a glass jaw
when it comes to love
you gotta goe toe to toe
and never give it up
don't throw the towel in
and you will win the day
take it to the end
don't let it slip away

don't keep your eye upon the time
just know every hour
you are mine
cause lovers can be fighters when the occasion demands it
bob and weave when the storm breaks
and it might save your skin

don't have a glass jaw
when it comes to love
you gotta goe toe to toe
and never give it up
don't throw the towel in
and you will win the day
take it to the end
don't let it slip away

Any song with Mellotron on it is going to draw me in. To have Mellotron in so much abundance in a top-notch Greeny song is like having your favorite thing times two. Sounds great to me!

[Geir]

Wow! This is fabulous Tim. Excellent use of mellotron and cello. You are an inspiration.

[Jarle]

There is nothing overdone about this one.

Very nice again, the Mellotron, flute, string and cello sound magnificent...its sounds like you are being backed by a full Orchestra! The way you blend them Thumbjam parts on your songs each time really do add something special to already great songs

Loving them pugilistic referenced lyrics too.

[Farrell Jackson]

I absolutely love the mellotron Greeny! Nice writing and it's not one bit overdone....it's just right.
