'Human Cannonball' Greeny Original

[Greeny]

Kind of spiky, bitter Brit-Pop. All done on the MBR (Danelectro, bass and vocals) with a couple of sound fx added in Audacity. The words aren't so clear because I was tired, hot and a bit mumbly:

Human Cannonball  - by Greeny

this circus thinks it owns every breath i breathe
but this silver-suited monkey flatters to deceive
cause in the quiet times we get disorderly
and barely give the public what they've paid to see

fire me... go on i dare you
into the arms of the bright blue sky
fire me... go on i dare you
cause this human cannonball has got to fly

high

the fuse is lit and my mind is tense
cause i do my own stunts without a safety net
the devil has a job for idle hands to do
or smoke and glitter mirrors that he'll shoot you through

fire me... go on i dare you
into the arms of the bright blue sky
fire me... go on i dare you
cause this human cannonball has got to fly

high

(houston we have a problem...)

i feel so calm and tranquil floating in the stars
dreaming of mojitos in the bars of mars
trying to defy the laws of gravity
by crashing Isaac Newton from his reverie

fire me... go on i dare you
into the arms of the bright blue sky
fire me... go on i dare you
cause this human cannonball has got to fly

high

Instant Classic Greeny.
I really dig your lyrics and your vocal delivery.
Man, the music is off the charts... everything fits just perfectly in the mix.
Pure inspiration...Greeny.

Love the way this just instantly bursts into life.

Those guitars sound so crisp and bright, and sit so perfectly under your vocal. Some really superb melodic guitar lines in there.

Simple, but very effective, bass line keeps the song bouncing along at a great pace.

Vocals and harmonies as good as ever, and some really cool lyrics in there.
