Edited the video. #rock #acoustic #indie_pop #electronic #drill #folk_punk Lyrics Copyright 2023 Orbit Carver I kinda needed the money, and the girls all think I'm cool I'll dress up like a pretty lady, the Bankman is gonna play my Fool Everybody hit the floor with your nose Let me introduce you to your shadow Put the money in the bag, though Either way I'm going home Because tomorrow I'll get out on no bail Can't you just see me in a private plane? Just like the privileged few Can't you see, I'm the victim here? Don't worry, I won't jack you Unless you are slipping' and slidin', driving your Toyota in front of my house Tell Officer Skinner I said, "What's up from a three time winner?" Because tomorrow I'll be out on no bail Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Why can't you keep your mouth closed? All up on the news Me and Freud we're going to slip one in you Gravy Gravy Gravy Gravy Had to go and run your smart mouth Hey Jung Porcupine What you gonna do when they let you out? Up next on the legacy news, Skip-to-my-loo through the Doom Zoo God have mercy, come and help us out. Somebody messed around and let the Devil out Holding up a mirror to the enemy, Civilized world is a booger bear Doctor Surgeon Fix my Heart, Somehow now I do not care 1 point 5 seconds of fame, they didn't even say your name out loud Point 1 per cent on a record deal, maybe we should learn how to use a drill Tomorrow I'll get out on no bail...... (bwrrlllhhhaaa!!!) Comments @newukenewyork - 2023-03-20 I really enjoyed this. An early favorite lyric: "Everybody hit the floor with your nose/Let me introduce you to your shadow" -- loving your gritty voice and the drumbeat. @cjk - 2023-03-14 Like the set up and your voice really gives the story a true feeling. The wavering/echoing part was a great touch. And somehow one wonders if he'll really get out on no bail or maybe he'll have to pay in a different way. #tit4tat2 @vomvorton - 2023-03-14 Really interesting writing, and the way the arrangement swells and builds around the guitar works very well - really atmospheric. @chipwithrow - 2023-03-12 Fascinating song - I did a combination of following the story and letting the wordplay unfold. Really cool, atmospheric instrumental sounds. Now I want to go hear another of your songs. @billwhite51 - 2023-03-12 this is a provocative song, it gives the listener an experience that may make them question their own comfort zones. the music pushes you prone into your chair and the words sneak right up in your face. there is no threat, only a peaceful relaxation that could explode at any moment. @kahlo2013 - 2023-03-12 There is a sadness and darkness that reaches deep with the evocative vulnerability that comes through in your vocals… especially in that last verse. Really awesome sound. Great guitar and cool percussion. Haunting. @resonut123 - 2023-03-07 Very nice acoustic guitar playing here. The music is Smooth but the lyric has a real Edge to it. The percussive backing is cool and different with the creative FX used here. #tit4tat2 @joefahey - 2023-02-09 You have a very cool voice and phrasing that matches well with these intriguing lyrics. There are so many great details and characters and the arrangement is super creative and fun to listen to. @orbit_carver - 2023-02-07 @klaus @kanttilamusic thank you so much for the comments! @klaus - 2023-02-07 First it sounded folky with a nice electronic backing and it worked really well. Lyrics are really wonderful, poetic but still tell a story. Catchy chorus. But the third verse, oh man, the way the music swells and the intensity grows, that was surprising and quite impressive. Great stuff! @kanttilamusic - 2023-02-07 Great lyrics, well delivered on this great instrumental. Love the tone of this! @orbit_carver - 2023-02-03 I wrote and recorded this song over the course of February 1 and 2. The event that inspired the initial idea was a news story where I watched a guy who was caught robbing banks look at the TV cameras and yell, "I'll be out in 24 hours." @daveyboy103 - 2023-02-03 Very intimate recording. Usually better to post the lyrics if you have them . Good job @mrmadcarpenter - 2023-02-03 Really evocative lyrics. The instrumentation really benefits from its simplicity. If I had to pick something to advise on - consider increasing the pre-delay on your reverb if you have access to that function. It lets the vocals through cleanly followed by the reverb, which gives a better sense of space.
