Lyrics

TERROR BONE

My terror bone it aches
There's a jungle full of snakes
Beyond my back garden
A siren splits the night
There's a veiled silent light
Did someone say pardon?

So roll yourself over give me your look
Turn down the light and close up your book
I want to talk about it what do you think
There's everything to lose in our life
A life worth living
Except for my terror bone that aches
Except for my terror bone that aches

My Sara she just shrugs
She don't know these bugs
That crawl beneath my skin
She don't check the locks
She don't watch the clocks
She don't see no shark's fin

So roll yourself over . . .



She's on the telephone
Relaxed in conversation
I nurse my terror bone
It's my own condemnation
It's my own condemnation


My child drifts off to sleep
As silently I creep
From window to window
My terror bone it aches
Our door it's going to break
It's me or the Rambo

So roll yourself over . . .

Really nice vibe, well performed and sung.I like the vocal presentation, it has a cool real feel. Also like the instrument uses..banjo nice touch.

I like it! soothing, some cool sounds.
Good flow. Good arrangement and message.
chorus drives it home

I like the keyboard intro w/ percussive guitar. Also the prosody of the haunting chord progression of the verses and the contrast of the chorus melody. Nice choices in instruments i.e. banjo, harmonica, (lap steel?) Nice imagery.

I liked this song a lot.
