a couple of my friends are feeling sorry for me
‘cause i fell a little short on my hollywood dream
little do they know i’m happy as a clam
washed up on the shore of a promised land
i couldn’t get at the truth ‘til i admitted my lies
so i could fly with the angels and politely ask them why
i spent my life addicted to pleasure and pain
‘til i got so much of both that it almost felt the same
at the website i just babble on but i already know
what they’ll say when i am gone...
when i worry too much ‘bout your opinion of me
my ego is a trap - a lock without a key
it’s been complicated since the day i was born.
i was momma’s little angel - an angel with horns
at the website i just babble on but i already know
what they’ll say when i am gone
death was my best career move
i wouldn’t hold still while they cooked my goose.
i couldn’t hang around ‘til they tightened up the noose
but when i let ‘em put a price tag on me -
well i lost the only thing that i could’ve had for free
death was my best career move

The live stuff (CD2 'The Ghost Mills') onward is pretty damn excellent. While bringing up the styles reminiscent of all of our favorite jazz fusion bands of old and present, they add their own very original ingredients that makes them fresh and original. In a genre that finds a lot of similar bands PAKT will always leave you guessing and way more times than not, with a grin above your chin. peace [ps- live concert CD options?] tpace
