[Verse 1]
Darkness does report
(Light’s the last resort)
The day grows short
(Shorter and shorter)

[Chorus]
Sundown
(Has come around)
Sunset
(With no regret)

[Bridge]
Living each day
(The fullest way)

[Verse 2]
Darkness does descend
(Bringing on day’s end)
The night is setting in
(Vision’s growin’ dim)

[Chorus]
Sundown
(Has come around)
Sunset

[Bridge]
Living each day

Living each day
(The utmost way)
Living in the light
(Living in delight)
Make it through the night

[Intro]
Been thrown a curve?
(Swerve!)

[Verse 1]
It’s becoming clearer
The situation is not linear
Nope…
Just look at the slope

[Chorus]
Of all the nerve…
Been thrown a curve
(Swerve!)
Important decision
(Avoid collision)

[Bridge]
Been thrown a curve?
(Swerve!)
Make a move
(To improve)

[Verse 2]
It’s best for both of us
If you study calculus
The slope is steep
And, we’re in deep

[Chorus]
[Bridge]

[Chorus]
[Outro]
[Instrumental, Synth Solo, Bass]
Head to what you deserve
(Swerve!)
Make a move

Today is the day
To come out and play

On any porch

Ohh, the music
Six strings brings

Give it a whack
(Slingin’ axe)

[Verse 2]
Hey, what do you say
Come over and play
The remedy…
A melody

[Chorus 2]
Come on back
(Slingin’ axe)
Ohh, the music
Six strings brings

[Bridge]

[Chorus 2]

[Outro]
Bring it on back
(Slingin’ axe)
Come on… relax
(Swing, swing, swing)
Sling an axe

ABOUT THE SONG

Today’s new release was written and performed live from my porch in celebration of International Play Music on the Porch Day. Using my favorite acoustic/electric guitar, I wanted to capture the simple joy of stepping outside, sharing sound, and inviting anyone within earshot to join in. The song is an open invitation — a reminder that music doesn’t need a stage, just a porch, a guitar, and the will to play.

[Intro]
(Rasp) … barely

[Verse 1]
Hard for me to say
Thought he was OK
Turns out another way

[Bridge]
Caught in a flood
… avalanche of mud

[Chorus]
(Rasp) … barely
Can utter a word
(Rasp) … rarely
Has it been this absurd

[Verse 2]
No longer hard to say
That man’s not OK
Can’t just look away

[Bridge]
Caught in a flood
… avalanche of mud

[Chorus]
(Rasp) … barely
Can utter a word
(Rasp) … rarely
Has it been this absurd

[Verse 3]
Had to learn the hard way
Got to stop it today
Stand up… have your say

[Bridge]
Caught in a flood
… avalanche of mud

[Chorus]
(Rasp) … barely
Can utter a word
(Rasp) … rarely
Has it been this absurd

[Outro]
(Or haven’t you heard?)
The crime of all time
(Now it’s time to go)
So now you know

A SCIENCE NOTE
Singularity in physics is a point at which a function takes an infinite value, especially in space-time when matter is infinitely dense, as at the center of a black hole. Examples of singularities in physics include the gravitational singularity at the center of a black hole and the Big Bang singularity, both representing points of infinite density and curvature where the known laws of physics, such as those of general relativity, break down. These are points in spacetime where mathematical descriptions of the universe become infinite, indicating that the current theories are incomplete and new physics are needed to understand these phenomena.

Saddle or saddled?

Woke up this morning
Had to decide
Should I heed warning
Or ride on and die

Riddle:
Saddle or saddled?
(Back in or burdened?)
’cause I’m back in the saddle (again)
Begin!

Oops, there goes a trunk

Glossing nemesis’ age
(Oops, there goes your case)
Smack dab in the face

Woke up this morning
My lucky day
Bleeded… then heeded the warning
Lived another day… to see another way

Saddle or saddled?

’cause I’m back in the saddle (again)

And, I hope you, too
(Find your point-of-view)

ABOUT THE SONG
The Roud Folk Song Index is a database of around 250,000 references to nearly 25,000 songs collected from oral tradition in the English language from all over the world. The primary function of the Roud Folk Song Index is as a research aid correlating versions of traditional English-language folk song lyrics independently documented over past centuries by many different collectors across (especially) the UK and North America. It is possible by searching the database—for example by title, first line(s), or subject matter (or a combination of any of a dozen fields)—to locate many of the variants of a particular song. Comprehensive details of those songs are then available, including details of the original collected source, and a reference to where to find the text (and possibly music) of the song within a published volume in the EFDSS archive.

From the “Aardvark” sessions. Found only on the Unplugged Underground Vol. XXV collection.
