Life of Jonny

Rode the boat to Bainbridge Island, fell in love, and then moved back again
Thought of marriage, givin head, raisin kinds, and being good at it
Started living in a van, playin rock shows with my brothers band
Thinkin, dreamin, leavin, writin, what is real, I don’t know man
Change on my heals
Love is real
Learn how to feel
What you feel
Ridin down the 99, me and Max and that shitty wine
Bein dumb and having fun, hitchin rides, look how far we’ve come
Now I’m out here in the city, writin songs and playin everyday
Never mind the world has burned, can’t go outside but I’ve got bills to pay
Change on my heals
Love is real
Learn how to feel
What you feel
Moved back and life is change and I have changed and now I’m changin again
The rain is coming, leaves are turnin, stay in inside and maybe go insane
But I’m not scared this time around cause I’ve got friends and love to help me out
Change is comin, love is real, and I’m gonna feel and feel it out

Mind Zone
04:09
|

Stuck at home
Chillin on my Covid thrown
Solo zone, wait
I’m not alone, Ive got my phone
Scroll on over to Lizzy’s feed
Pictures of big sky country
Then I’ll look at some celebrities
They look so clean, I’m eating Cheetos off a magazine
I’m out here and you’re out here to, we gotta
Stick together, love each other
Get naked and dance in you’re room, you gotta
Write a letter, take a breather from your mind zone
Stoned mode, whoops
Got to high this time I’m fried
Change clothes
Clean the kitchen, you’ll be fine
Maybe this time I’ll call you back
We’ll chat about when we’re going back
Back to normal, man what’s that
May never give or get a hug from someone new, that’s wack
I’m out here and you’re out here to, we gotta
Stick together, love each other
Get naked and dance in you’re room, you gotta
Write a letter, take a breather from your
Obsessive intake of the news, you gotta
Draw a picture, call your mother
Get back to the basics of you, you gotta
Smell a flower
Make a chowder
Feed your starter
In half an hour
Tip your server
An extra dollar
Take a show
Wield the power of your mind zone

Prolly Won
04:49
|

Spreadin grout, trippin out
Yellow squeegee, trowel
Broken up, feeling stuff
Learn to cry it out
Makin plans, mixin sand
Workin with my dad
Messin up, scrape it up
Sorry dad, my bad
Losin you, the truth I knew
Lost you on the road
Canyon land, golden sand
Hey New Mexico
Backseat moods, come unglued
Thought enough to choose
My own rules, my own tools
To live without a home
We learn through these
Moments of rearranging

Sammy
03:54
|

Gravel drive, I run to you
Tailgate ride, we’re drivin through
Orchard grows, We’ll harvest soon
Winds of August blowin through
Take the poles down to the Skook
Yellow storefront, trim of blue
Worms and lays and Mtn Dew
Lets cast a few
Split her chin upon the rim
Trampoline launch, flips to win
Rushed her off to Providence
Seven stitches, she’s a boss
Sammy was a real good dog
Shook the whole way from the pound
Grew to be a country dog
He Kept me safe he kept me sound
Winter came and went again
Called the vet out to the land
Held the needle in his hand
Watched the life leave Sam

Paste
03:53
|

Sittin in a lovers room
White walls reflect the moon
I’m not a kid but I am when I’m with you
Walkin through the evergreens
Crunch leaves of deciduous trees
Kissin your mouth
Dreams of pinks and shades of green
Shades of green I’ve never seen
Swan groovin through the blue
It makes me think of you
The way you breath
The way you like to brush your teeth
Paste runnin down your cheek
I’ve been avoidin
This conversation
Tellin someone
You really love um
You’re a person
And I’m a person
Makin somethin
Outa somethin
Sittin in a lovers room
White walls reflect the moon
I’m not a kid but I am when I’m with you

Hey Hi How Are Ya
04:54
|
|||
Walk to, Walk through the door now you’re in the room
Hey Hi, How Are you, God bless and keep you cool
Paster Bill, his whole family, white teethed and Jesus breathed
Lets pray, Lets get the Devil Kicked outa you
YA!
HEY!
Grew up, mom shootin up in the living room
Threw up, make sure she’s not chokin on her own
Runnin out, with my sister out to my uncle Joe’s
Sit down, we’ll get the Devil kicked outa you
All you ever wanted was the
Love of a mother and a roof and a bed
Now you’re on your knees and askin
A thing that you don’t believe to live in your head
Don’t think he’ll keep you warm and cozy
Just follow the rules and vote against your interests
Stay blessed, stay blissed and don’t think about your pain
He’s here he’s there to make the pain go away
Plus suffering gets you closer to Jesus and those pearly gates
Keep calm, smile on, your Devil is almost gone
All you ever wanted was the
Love of a mother and a roof and a bed
Now you’re on your knees and askin
A thing that you don’t believe to live in your head
Don’t think he’ll keep you warm and cozy
Just follow the rules and vote against your interests

Debt
04:24
|
|||
Makin money is easy when you got a degree
At least that’s what they told me when I was seventeen
Now all my friend are workin three jobs, not makin a dent in their debt
Sub contract dog walkin masters, paying rent till we’re dead
I’m an American
Hard Workin American
It shouldn’t happen me
My good friends mom lost her job, she’s turning fifty-three in a week
She worked hard all her life for a pension and a good salary
She got a call the other day, said her job is goin to MACHINES
Unemployment kicks in and her husbands disability
I’m an American
Hard workin American
It Shouldn’t happen to me
I’m an American
Hard workin American
It could happen to me

The Middle
03:39
|

City of rust
Keep up the dust
Crackhead desire, meath house fire
Its in the middle
Mother of lust
Stuck in the muck
She was an outsider
Now she’s in the middle
The Middle
2008
The market inflates
Buyin up homes, takin out loans
We’re in the middle
The bubble bursts
Now dads outa work
Bankruptcy dance, food stamp champs
We’re in the middle
The MIDDLE
The middle disease
Killin for free
The middle with me
YA!

Lots to Learn
05:16
|

Wrapped up in my mood
I wanna brake it
Movin on too soon
Stop wait a minute
Got the tune lets groove
Its not that easy
Authentic or cheesy
Maybe take a drug
That might just free me
Loosin up my tongue
Is that a freebee
Feel it in my lungs
Its not that easy
Authentic or cheesy
Does this sound like me
I was on the the chain again
Livin in my brain lets swim
Really got a lot to learn from you
Put it down lets live it out
Now its poppin’ off
I’m feeling groovy
Is it good enough
Who’s speaking to me
Shouldn’t give a fuck
What you think of me
It’s not that easy
Does this sound like me
Now I’m on the chain again
Livin in my brain can’t swim
Really got a lot to learn from you
Put it down lets live it out
Now I’m on the chain again
Livin in brain lets swim
Really got a lot of nerve don’t you
Put it down lets live it out

Song for Dad
05:04
|
|||
I grew with the trees
And laid in the leaves
I’ve looked for me
In all kinds of things
The love from another
The hand of a brother
The words on a page
From some human brain
Now I’ve done some thinkin
Some dreaming and schemin
The truths in a moment
That feeling breathes
Thought can’t shape it
Desire can’t create it
So breath in that feeling
When the moment sings
The song of the ocean
The fog on the mountain
The hand of a new born
Reachin out to me
Now that’s what I’m seekin
The truth in a feeling
Can’t say its life meaning
But its what I seek
So I’ll grow with the trees
And I’ll lay in those leaves
Keep lookin for me
In all kinds of things
