Skinna My Teeth
02:56

Why do I just get by, by the skin of my teeth?
Are you wasting your time waiting here on me?
Cus I can barely get by, I'm hanging by the skin of my teeth
I keep on wasting your time, I'm begging you darling please
You gotta leave
My best years of lust, they are starting to fade
I'm starting to feel a little rusty, I'm thinking it's too late
I tried my luck little girl but it would never stay
Everything feels a little fucked up and I can't wait
So for your own sake you gotta leave
Why do I just get by, by the skin of my teeth?
Are you wasting your time waiting here on me?
Cus I can barely get by, I'm hanging by the skin of my teeth
I keep on wasting your time, I'm begging you darling please
You gotta leave

Am I Dirt or The Worm?
03:00
|
|||
|
When I'm alone that's when it feels like I'm at home again
And you know it makes me feel like I can breathe again
But when you do me like you do it makes me scream and squirm
And I don't know if I'm the dirt or the worm
I wanna take a ride and let the road just take me anywhere
Anywhere but here, cus you got yourself worked up acting foolish again
You never change, it's always the same
And I don't know if I'm the puppet or the string

Arrested In Destin
04:19
|

|
I got arrested in Destin
Got herpes in PCB
Blew a tire in Fort Myers
In Miami I smoked PCP
I'm living salt life
I can't act right
I'm living oh so free
I'm living salt life
I can't act right
I'm living just for me
Just another loner in Daytona
I got lost in the Okeefenokee
Had my fill in Jacksonville
But in Tampa I drink for free
I'm living salt life
I can't act right
I'm living oh so free
I'm living salt life
I can't act right
I'm living just for me
Takin' off to Mar a Lago
Where a man can live like a king
Get your fill of sun and sand
But if you sing, won't you sing with me
I'm living salt life
I can't act right
I'm feeling oh so free
I'm living salt life
I can't act right
I'm living just for me

Don't Turn The Light Off
04:25
|
|||
|
I said my piece
And you said yours
The peace and quiet we once had
Is walking out the door
Don't turn the light off
We get through it every time
I can see you're not gone
By the gleaming light left in your eyes
Don't turn the light off
Darkness won't be your friend
I'll never take the night off
Until you forgive me for all my sins
If I dream of better times
Just know you'll be there too
Cus it's only night terrors
Living a day without you
Don't turn the light off
We get through it every time
I can see you're not gone
By the gleaming light left in your eyes
Don't turn the light off
Darkness won't be your friend
I'll never take the night off
Until you forgive me for all my sins

No Expectations
03:45
|
|||
|
We're so dysfunctional, when's it gonna end?
We're so traditional, nuclear reactions end before they begin
And no one talks cus they don't wanna hear
Don't wanna feel what they feel cus it'll make things so clear
Don't wanna see what they already see
Don't wanna walk the walk cus then they'll have to meet expectations
Death is coming you can feel it, I can smell it on your breath
Stress is coming out your ears and eyes, I can feel it in my chest
I confessed but no one's listening, there's no one on the other side
I'm shaking my fist up at the sky, but there's no one there, there's no one on the other side
No expectations

Crack The Door
03:05
|
|||
|
You can come to our one horse town
You can even settle down
As long as you and your kids
Follow all the rules and the politics
We cracked the door and they came right in
Don't take too much to see
They work hard and for basically free
Calluses on our hands?
They're simple people with simple demands
We cracked the door and they came right in
We used to need the help
Now we just want anything else
The people are fun, the food is great
So let's just celebrate
Let's crack the door and let 'em on in

Getting By
05:21
|
|||
|
Through all these years I've forgotten
So much more than I remember
Is that so bad? It's not so bad
'Cus I'll probably end up buried in a pauper's grave
Where no one will remember my name
Is that so bad? It's not so bad
'Cus we could burn it down
We could burn the whole world down if it didn't rain every day
Though the choppy seas they may change
The stars above us will remain the same
It's not so bad, it's not so bad
My chin's up, my head raised towards the sky
But you're not here to help with the getting by
Is that so bad? Yeah, it's too bad
'Cus we could burn it down
We could burn the whole world down if it didn't rain every day

No Banana

|
When dem kids acting up, they no get banana
When they stay all night in the streets, they no get banana
When pretty girl turns you down, she no get banana
When you spend your money on drugs, you no get banana
When tax man comes a knocking, he no get banana
When policeman strike you down, he no get banana
When boss man late with the check, you no get banana
When politician run you down, they no get banana

Instead of Leaving
02:34
|
|||
|
Instead of leaving, why don't you wanna see me off?
Instead of seeing what I'm seeing you just wanna close me off
Instead of leading why don't you take a load off?
Instead of being how you're being why don't you just fuck off?
Instead of needing why don't you take all that you want?
Instead of bleeding out slowly why don't you just rip it off?
Instead of kneeling why don't you all just stand up?
Instead of feeling like you're feeling why don't you just fuck off?
Instead of saying what you're thinking why don't you just shut up?
Instead of hating why don't you just learn to shut it off?
Instead of killing why don't we all just get bombed?
Instead of praying why don't we all just hold off?
Instead of kneeling why don't you all just stand up?
Instead of being how you're being why don't you just fuck off?

Lying To Myself
03:10
|
|||
|
When I said I was coming home
Did I even know?
When I said I'll be there soon
Did I even know the truth?
I'm lying to myself again
When I said I loved you
Did you feel it too?
When you gave me another chance
Did you think that it would be the last?
You're lying to yourself again
When I said I would quit
you thought that'd be the end of it
But I couldn't stop myself
Maybe you're the one that needs the help
You're lying to yourself again
I tried to go straight again
Behind your back with friends
I've got no self control
But I'll just lie and play the fool
I'm lying to myself again

Saturday Night
02:34
|
|||
|
I'm spitting highballs on passers-by
Fuck your bylaws I'm getting high
I'm just a drag racer followed by
Ambulance chasers get in line
I stay out late on a Saturday night
I do these things just to feel alright
I stay out late almost every night
I do my thing just to feel alright
I got my head in a trash bag
I never wanted to feel this bad
Keep up appearances, keep up with the world
I just get lost in the underworld
I stay out late on a Saturday night
I do these things just to feel alright
I stay out late almost every night
I do my thing just to feel alright

I shouldn't waste my time on you
Cus I know that I'll never get it back
I shouldn't waste a dime on you
Cus I know that I'll never see it back
Poor girls don't care what you're drinking
Poor girls only care what you're thinking of them
Rich girls only care what you're drinking
Rich girls never care what you're thinking
I shouldn't waste my time on you
Cus I know that I'll never get it back
I shouldn't waste a dime on you
Cus I know that I'll never see it back

If you like One Eyed Moon, you may also like:
supported by 18 fans who also own “Jack Ruby Slippers”
As has (rightfully) already been said elsewhere, this band and album are "absolute fire." Despite the doom-gloom cover art, this type of rock music is a positive force. Especially without vocals, which for me is a bonus due to often not resonating with song lyrics.

Falling Mothership
by Black Sky Giant
supported by 18 fans who also own “Jack Ruby Slippers”
excellent music for relaxing. it is interesting enough to not be boring, and yet not so aggressive, hectic and/or challenging as to disturb the mood of chilling peace the music creates.

Planet Terror
by Black Sky Giant
supported by 18 fans who also own “Jack Ruby Slippers”
Killer stoner / desert rock that reminds me of early QOTSA and Monster Magnet but fully instrumental. Right up my alley! Talented cats!

Move To The Trees
by Winter McQuinn
Winter McQuinn mixes soft rock and psychedelic folk for a sound reminiscent of classic pop purveyors like Cut Worms and the Lemon Twigs.
go to album
Strange, Strange Times
by The Ugly Kings
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching.

Every Other Day
by The Dandelion
Mystical new single from Australian psych project the Dandelion features twisting Farfisa lines, ghostly vocals, and spaced out atmosphere.
