Raincloud 03:25
4, 3, 2, 1 We're gonna get down Life is so short We are dancing in a thunderstorm We are a strange sort We are dancing in a thunderstorm Sound and light They get me high The ocean, the sky They make me cry I try not to feel it Pump through my chest But it crawls up my spine Makes its way to my eyes And I cry and I cry and I cry You are so beautiful I want to die We're gonna get down You are a raincloud, baby I am afraid of you

I met a bee, I met a bee You buzz when you breathe You have honey on your hands when you reach out to sting me I met a bee, I met a queen bee I climbed up a great tree to meet her I could never leave, You could never leave I could never leave, You could never leave me. And then the rains came Washed away All my grace In the breeze I sway Birds tapping on the branches Screaming their heads off Tapping away How? How the hell could you hate them? I can't live without them Tapping away. Orange, yellow and blue These are the colors I think of When there's nothing but grey, grey, grey, grey. Sing: I could never leave, You could never leave I could never leave, You could never leave me. And then the rains came Washed away All my grace In the breeze i sway Hush now, little bee And I will sing you a lullaby If you hum one last sweet song for me Before I lay me down to die And if this mighty branch should break Then the rain it will come turn these graveyards to lakes Ooh, it's over, all over, it's all over now yeah Hush little bee, it's over, all over, it's all over now My sweet little bee Buzz your little song to me

Mongrel 03:05
INSIDE A BROKEN CLOCK I've given up time, it's never been my friend. I'd prefer to never know when this party's going to end. I like my honey sweet And I like my apples red. I want you wild in the eyes when we drop down dead. Sugar Pie, Sugar Sugar Honey Pie, Sugar Baby Gumdrop With a lemon on top, I I think I love you I think I'd love to Come inside, Sugar Sugar Honey Pie But be careful on the climb, it's a long long drop now The fall is treacherous from up this high. GIVE MY UMBRELLA TO THE RAIN DOGS FOR I AM A RAIN DOG TOO. And now, ABOARD A SHIPWRECK TRAIN You haven't changed a bit. You'll always stay the same. You will never die. You will never grow old. You can only buy what you've sold. We are dancing down here. We are out of our minds. You are a raincloud, baby. We are drowning down here. I want your face I want your bones I want your eyes I want your glow I want these grey skies to stab me with lightning Before I explode I want to bury your heart in the blood red snow. YOU'LL NEVER BE GOING BACK HOME. GIVE MY UMBRELLA TO THE RAIN DOGS FOR I AM A RAIN DOG TOO.

The day the dragon came down the mountain I searched my heart for peace, but There is no peace in this land. I know you. I've seen you in my dreams. The day the dragon came down the mountain We planted apple seeds in every dead field, but I can not escape her bony hands. She is coming for me. The devil ain't no friend of mine But I'm in love with his wife. I don't know, there's just something about her There's just something that she does right. She told me something, I won't tell no one. She told me something, I won't tell another soul, no. Lightning, lightning. Here it comes, boom, boom, boom.

about

The Town Monster Columbus

If synth pop wandered into a dark alley and found itself viciously beaten by a gang of guitar distortion and layered rhythms, it might sound an awful lot like The Town Monster.

The music all culminates in The Town Monster's crushing live show, an electro bath of sensory overload. It finds out what happens when noise becomes symphony.
