Snake Oil Salesman

He’s a blond haired, blue eyed man of the world
A genuine heart throb and hustling crook
A little slip, a little slide, as he dances
Round the room
He knows who to speak with, and just what to say
Watch out before you know it you’ll have joined his campaign
He’ll flash a toothy smile with his slicked back hair
And leave you in the dust
Watch out for the Snake Oil Salesman
Double dealing scoundrel
Don’t be fooled by his charm that puts you at ease
The game will change when time reveals plans undisclosed
Like a crypt he’s all for looks he’s no gentleman
His eyes see only green.
At first glance he’s high class a breath of fresh air
The twinkle in his eye to hide his cunning charade
The side effect of all that wit is he has become
The Snake Oil Salesman
Watch out for the Snake Oil Salesman
Double dealing scoundrel
Watch out for the Snake Oil Salesman
Swindle you out of your fortune
Double dealing scoundrel
Not just a tramp he’s a charlatan

She sits alone – Head back; heart proud
She glances past – Hands together; gaze blank
What do we sing, when we know everything?
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Caught in this world – Stone cold; can’t go
Head over heels – Retribution
What could be new, when we’ve seen everything?
Seasons change – Cycle on; repeat
Mechanical – Expectations
How can we live, when we don’t have to?
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me

Counterfeit Ending

Red lipstick and the scent of sweet perfume,
Dance gracefully throughout the air.
The shadow of a false security,
Slips silently across the room.
Cloak and dagger, veiled dynamite, yeahyea-eah
The art of misinterpretation,
Brazen hints spin fairy tails of lies
Calm, cool, collected, catlike medium.
Smooth tongue rehearsed and prey on the loose.
Those foxy eyes, bewitching gaze, there’s no hope for this one.
Quick glance, side step, sashay around the floor
Marionettes with not a thing to lose.
Dictated Dances strung with sweet devise.
Dangerous delve into the deep.
Cunning Charades, clever facade, another counterfeit ending.

It’s the exponential casualty of a life of self-denial
Integrated systems, cultural, say you’ll never be in style
Extend this common courtesy
Remarkably inaccurate
Show your pre-planned disposition
It’s the exponential casualty of a life of self-denial
Integrated systems, cultural, say you’ll never be in style
Ensure the words you say to them
Are nothing but intelligent
Calculated conversations
It’s the exponential casualty of a life of self-denial
Integrated systems, cultural, say you’ll never be in style
It’s an epidemic racing through the air
Don’t hold your breath searching for vindication
It’s an epidemic racing through the air
Don’t hold your breath searching for vindication
It’s an epidemic racing through the air
Don’t hold your breath searching for vindication
It’s an epidemic racing through the air
Don’t hold your breath searching for vindication
Design each situation
With subtle hints of anarchy
Reclaiming your authority
It’s the exponential casualty of a life of self-denial
Integrated systems, cultural, say you’ll never be in style

Meadow Drive Calgary, Alberta
Headed up by childhood friends Jenna and Charity, the band’s jazz roots are apparent in the harmonic structure of the songs and melodic importance of the bass, while their love of funk and disco often shines through with crisp, clean guitar riffs and syncopated drum grooves. Smooth yet powerful vocals bring even their rock influenced repertoire under the umbrella of the sound they call their own. ... more
