Whisky Man

Come sit with me, oh! On this lonely hill
Starin’ out as the world goes by, guess you know the drill?
Just loosening, oh! My grip on life
Fondlin’ this glass of mine, sip away the night
And you know, where I’m at
You’re always there when things turn bad
You’ve already been very understanding
I’ve been heading for a nasty crash landing
I’m not falling, I’m not falling away
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Come drink with me, oh! On this island bench
Put the woes of the world to right, I’ve got a thirst to quench
Just listen in to, the story of my life
Raise your glass and lets all cheer, drink away the night
And you know, where I’m at
You’re always there when things turn bad
You’ve already been very understanding
I’ve been heading for a nasty crash landing
I’m not going, I’m not going away
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Whisky Man, whisky man is me
Scotch for ya, Welsh for ya, a Japanese dram for ya
A Bourbon, a Rye, Malt Barley, Corn or dry
Some Moonshine, some Wheat, I like to drink them neat
Old fashioned, a passion, whatever you imagine
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Whisky Man, whisky man is calling me
Whisky Man, whisky man is me
Whisky man is me

Stop the Silence

Failing fortune, her heart is breaking over me.
Cry tears of forgiveness but she just could not let it be.
Stop the silence.
The truth is hidden, choking when she tries to speak.
This fallen lover is locked and loaded packing heat.
Stop the silence and end the pain.
Say you’ll never slip again.
Stop the silence and end the game.
Forgiven ‘til the end of days.
With a quiet shiver, I’m trying hard to break my fall.
As a broken mirror rests in pieces on the floor.
Fearing violence cower in the secret place.
No broken silence a storm is building on her face.
Stop the silence and end the pain.
Say you’ll never slip again.
Stop the silence and end the game.
Forgiven ‘til the end of days.

Blood Red Valentine

I finished with my woman on the eve of Valentine’s
Just to play a little game
I sent the message after hitting some white lines
But she called me up in pain
She’d got drunken senseless
Said I killed her pride
She wouldn’t take any chances
Said I’m the loser that took her life
My blood red valentine
My blood, my blood red valentine
It’s not for me to decide
If she takes her life
I jumped into a taxi and sped to see my girl
But on the stroke of valentine
I was kicking in her back door when I heard a lethal sound
And I was out of time
She’d got drunken senseless
Said I killed her pride
She wouldn’t take any chances
She pulled the trigger and took her life
My blood red valentine
My blood, my blood red valentine
I didn’t get there on time
I just let her die
My blood, my blood red valentine
I didn’t get there on time
I just let her die
She’d got drunken senseless
Said I killed her pride
She wouldn’t take any chances
As the bullet ripped through her eye

Swan Song (Radio Edit)

When I’m standing beside you
But I’m feeling left behind
Well that’s ok by me
This is your time
When there’s friends all around me
But I’m feeling all alone
Well that’s ok by me
I’m just a drone
When the love has gone
I’ll sit and sing my swan song
Now that feeling has gone
I guess we fought on too long
Now that love has gone
I’ll sit and sing my swan song
Not that loves forgot
I guess that I’ll be gone
This is my sad song
When you’re talking like a vaguewit
Cus’ there’s nothing else to say
That’s ok by me it’s all cliche
When the world is on my shoulders
And no one hears me yell
That’s ok by me, I’ll live in hell
When the love is gone
I’ll sit and sing my swan song
Loving feelings forgot
I guess that’s gone on too long
Now the love has gone
I’ll sit and sing my swan song
I'm the miserable song
I’ll sit and sing my song
So won’t you sing along?
Now that love has gone
Now that love has gone
Now that love has gone

Call your friends and come out for the night
There’s drinks and fighting in the pale moonlight
The boys are back and we are on the town
Don’t need no one who will bring us down
Alien life forms take control of me
It’s like body snatchers on the movie screen
I kid myself that I am in control
Another night wasted on alcohol
What a gas, now I’m home and sober
I’m head sore wondering how I got home last night
My body is aching
I’m fucking hungover
But I know everything will be alright
The drinks are flowing in a downtown bar
At half-past nine we hit sambuca hard
Drunken dancing to our favourite sounds
Another night wasted in my hometown
Old man’s swaying as he yells for more
He mumbles something as he hits the floor
The whiskey flowing through his shattered veins
Another night but same old shit again
It happened so fast, now I’m home and sober
I’m so floored thinking about what I did last night
My body’s still aching
I’m fucking hungover
But I know everything will be alright
It happened so fast, I’m back home and sober
I’m thinking about what I did last night
My body’s still aching
I’m fucking hungover
But I know everything will be alright
I know everything will be alright
I know everything will be alright
I know everything will be alright
I know everything will be alright

Good lookin’ people are talkin’
Don’t notice me passing by
Cute beauty A-solo drinkin’
Look at me, please catch my eye
I stumble when I try to talk to
I feel like a thorn in their side
No notice is ever paid me
I’m just no good at this life
The pretty ones all gone
They’re all matched-up outside
“Drink up” the barman yells calling time
I circle around the room
Swooping on left-behinds
I am a condor in flight
Slick talkin’ designer label
Not pretty or sweet on the eye
They’ve hunted all night ‘round the tables
Now caught their prey like a fly
So I’m left picking at carrion
The desperation is high
One lonely but ugly vulgarian
Will be my consolatory prize
The pretty ones all gone
They’re all matched-up outside
“Go home” the barman yells calling time
I circled around the room
Swooping on left-behinds
'Cus I am a condor tonight
The pretty ones all gone
They’re all matched-up outside
“Go home” the barman yells calling time
I circled around the room
Swooping on left-behinds
I am a condor
I am a condor
Yes I am a condor tonight

Dazzle Rebel Nottingham, UK
“I forge songs in a furnace and temper them with icy lyrics. It’s raw and honest. It’s music from the edge. I am an independent songsmith crafting music for everyone sick of the mainstream hype machine. They’re songs for the bold and brave. It’s music that embraces a DIY attitude, no autotune, no record labels. I call it Fringe Rock”. - Dazzle Rebel ... more

This might not be her latest but for me, it's my favourite album by the incredible Courtney Barnett to date. I'm actually in love with her ponderous and rambling lyrics.
