lyrics

Back when older meant stronger
which it doesn't any longer
I was afraid of you for you
now I'm afraid of you for me

Back when harder meant smarter
guess I seemed like a non-starter
you name it I was scared of it
but now I couldn't give a shit

Your belly's too big for your back
I'm waiting for your spine to crack
How could you burn and never learn?
I always knew the worm would turn

Back when boredom was danger
I was a little stranger
Now I have learned some of the rules
and tried to turn them into tools.

Dan Ball recommends:

drool together
by Chocolate Dog

This is an album I made in collaboration over the internet with two fine musicians back home in Dublin Ireland. There is a very interesting mix of styles, tones and rhythms. Dan Ball
