September Already

Everybody’s telling me their which way to go
I can’t even call you back until I know
How I can feel so thin and still be able to show
Everyone my everything and still cry, “Gold!”
I don’t need me
You don’t need you
We need someone soon
Never will there be another summer this slow
Never will we have play confusion to show
That all we ever needed was to touch just once
Everyone’ll tell you that they already knew
I’ll say it again your instinct
Is everything that I need
Low sound around me showing
You were inside me glowing
Believe everything that you read
And I’ll be the girl that you need
I’m laughing inside, it’s insane
Cuz nobody hears me chant your name

Below The Sliding Doors
04:30
|
|||
|
Time is up, the money’s gone
A windless moon is your only throne
Last walk in the garden
You’d like to think you know no shame
Select a worthy heir to your name
Miss one and it’s end of game
We walk under the clouds of a sunny day
Words are on the run anyway
Be safe below the sliding doors of a modern sham
Say the words that we’ll never say
Swiss time is on the move
No precision on an icy groove
A valentine in the window
Blow forth and feed your eyes
No incision, she’s a satellite
A dull kiss in the morning
This is where we say what’s wrong
Smooth the edges with an iron tongue
Peruse the list and find the song
The same day we find a plane
These pills - never twice the same
Shallow walk in the ocean

Crazy Eyes
03:06
|

|
She'll make a mess of you
If you're without a clue
Champagne's easier
I'm spilling grease all over
Too bad lover you bought it
We sleep in shallow water
For this I cannot justify
Misnomer if you're caught
Believing all you've wrought
It's nothing don't forget
That you're still nothing yet
Too bad lover you bought it
We sleep in shallow water
For this I cannot justify
My release in another life
You, you be good, you with crazy eyes

All Dreamed Out
04:18
|

Say when, I'll stop twisting your arm
Listen, we don't have to grandstand
The world shows its love for you with money
You love me, well, I just think that's funny
And everybody knows
That you were backstage making history a home
Somewhere it's August in the evening
That's where you'll find me changing seasons
And everybody knows
You were backstage making history a home
And I can't wait to find you sleeping all dreamed out
Next year the sky is still the same sky
But right now, everything is sacred
It never will again
And you might try to save a second chance
It's gone
This perfect moment has just come and gone
You're wrong, it's gone

Pretty Pictures
03:24
|
|||
|
Your room is always warmer
The animals they love me too
Our lives, are they so precious? You should know
I read it and I liked it
I couldn't tell a single soul
I'm sorry that I'm blinded
You should know something
All my sunny sounds
They leave this world for good
Everybody else I keep right here
I saw your pretty pictures
Your face could never tell a lie
No matter
You will always need to feel something
There's no one else to blame
A year is such a waste of time
I'll make another pretty sound
It's nothing

On This Earth
04:16
|
|||
|
On this earth I will stand on rocks and sand
Waiting for sympathy and day's end
To winter, spring and summer
I swear there is no other you
This is for you
One life fades to the next
It's with me you're left
Tired eyes, please believe
That I'm with you
To Shiela, surely altered
Your train wreck's racing for we two
Is this what we do?
On this, our night, there will be
Secrets left unknown
Can you be strong?

I Am A Fraction
04:21
|

|
You look west, that's where everyone told you
Pioneers will most certainly find you
It's been too long without it
His old man likes the song where they tell you
Be a creep, just let anyone sell you
I woke up with the sun on my shoulder
Yesterday felt a thousand years older
It's been too long without it
Could it be right to doubt it?
I could wait, I could watch it at the movies
I could say, there is nothing that could move me
I slipped out with the wind at my coattails
Sunday noon with the dirt on my face still
Seven hours and it feels like a segue
You can lie but you're never the same
It's been too long without it
You've been so weird throughout it
Say we're safe in the bosom of hellfire
You can shock me with your science and live wires
All aglow, we're so pretty in action
I feel good even though I'm a fraction

You called me out, and just this once
I'll keep within the circle that's drawn
Now I see you must be right
The candle's out but now we must try
I swear I'm alright
No pills at night, no depserate afternoons
Don't save me anymore
I'll stand here till I die
Believe me one more time
I know you've seen the other side
The go-getters, they just look so bright
Check my eyes, I look alright, you must believe
For once it's true
I've never felt so sure before
I swear I'm alright
No pills at night, no desperate afternoons
Don't save me anymore
I'll stand here till I die
There's nowhere you can hide
Believe me one more time

Right Kind Of Girl
03:04
|
|||
|
I want to ride with the sunroof down
I want to ride till the sun goes down
I want to drive to the secret hideout
Because I'm the right kind of girl for you
We can forget what we learned at school
There is no right for persistent fools
And if we keep on driving backwards
You'll see there's no good and/or bad, my friend
Down this golden road
There is something that I must unload
I'm not a schoolgirl
I am just a Siamese cat with wings
And I hope that you understand
That I once was a boy or a man
And it's too late to change the course of history
But I would like to see you again
Down this golden road
There is something that I must unload
I'm not a schoolgirl
I am just a Siamese cat with wings
And I say things I don't mean
Like there's still a shred of truth to be seen
I'm feeling so high, but I'll take you home if you think that I
Said too much, much too soon
But I'd really like to see you again

Your Big Night, Sandy!
03:26

Lockjaw standing on his own lowball landing
Come on mistah reprimanding
Why you so understanding?
Oh she lights the wind on fire in her way
No apologies, no luck tonight
Filtered eyes look on from every side
I wish this could be your big night, Sandy
Watch out for lightning
Sandy waiting on her landing
She was always so demanding
Her voice was so commanding
Say, you're looking like a wipeout
You do this every night out
You wait, I'm thinking
I've got it! You're sinking
And every day it seems there's a blackout on your city block
Charming once, but twice, I'm gone
And I feel like I was there all alone
You're so white, you think yo'ure nothing like me, are you
You wanted new conditions, base it all on intuition
Play it just lke you're Buddha, nothing hurts you 'less it needs to
Naked like a baby
Don't look like you hate it

Strange As They Say
05:07
|

|
On a train, she was safe
I could say, I never saw her
Breaking the rules of physical lust
Far away, I could swear I heard her say
Ola's salvation
Just pour on the love, and walk away
So long, I heard you say
So long, 17 days
So long, almost awake
So long, strange as they say

The Star Behind The Star
05:04

On a star with my new family
More than silence, we don't even speak
No one could dissuade me, now I'm home
Mother loves me, but I've got new wings now
And I don't miss all of you suffering children when
I'm in the star behind the star, it's just beginning
Your world's abstract, we don't backtrack here
History is just a nursery

Blinker The Star Pembroke, Ontario
Blinker The Star, the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist/ producer Jordon Zadorozny has landed where it began: a one man recording entity with sprinklings of guest star overdubs, solidly in the blueprint of past giants and influencers Todd Rundgren, Prince, R Stevie Moore and Lenny Kravitz. 2023 sees the release of Blinker's The Star's 12th full length album, "Animal Math". ... more
