Climb on on
Take a spin
We'll go round and round and round again

Hey little kid, right on
Teethy little kid, right on
Worried little kid, right on
Burning little twigs, right on
I belong
Pretty little bib, right on
Wear it like a wig, right on
Greedy little kid, right on
I see what you did, right on
I belong
Grabbing all the hugs for my collection
Tucking them away inside my heart
Looking for a one on one connection
This is do or die

Need a way out, I’ve been trapped inside
A prison of my making
All this time I’ve been sleeping
Secret agent set my mind alight
Help me to awaken
Blaze a trail to escaping
Feel the tide wholly gaining
Made my bed, not complaining
Burned my day down, owning all my crimes
A spirit slowly breaking
Where do I send my payment?
I’m a lesser man I know that now
Of that I’m not mistaken
All dried up, slowly breaking
Feel the tide wholly gaining
Made my bed, not complaining
I can’t see you, though you’re right outside
An image so misshapen
I lost all communication
Took a swing and missed, but that’s alright
I’ve circled all the bases
Ran the last of my races

You came in and flaunted
Ornate and exalted
Alright
Gold braids and a corset
Conveying your lordship
Alright
Displaying their worship
Just makes you exhausted
Alright

Like A Bird

Misfit puppets
Spill below me
With ease
I float along
Across the breeze
I’m fancy free
In a haunted passage
Spooling slowly
Indeed
A kaleidoscope
Of light beams
Recedes

We made it all we know
And now we see
It’s everything, all, endlessly
A hive of minds
Connecting dreams

The Ponderosa

Hear the lightning striking
On the ground below
Now the fires burn where ponderosa grow
So the aspen rises
In the aster’s glow
Bringing life again where ponderosa grow
I heard an angel landing
On a Titan’s toe
Forget everything where ponderosa grow

Asleep on the top bunk
I got here first
Dreaming of violence
That I deserve
I rise with the red sun
Out of turn
Never remind me
That I’m cursed
I button the top one
Of my shirt
Off to harvest
Where they lurk
I pull out my pop gun
To quench my thirst
Aim for the shoulder
And make it hurt
Finally all mine
Here with me

Dear Father, I’m fine
Just passing the time
What I do on screen
Is just what it seems
But I’m bothered by the offer

I got drowned again
Stepped out with my ever loving friend
Hate it how I’ve played it all
Following the trend
Never could I say “So long”
Bring it to the end
I’m probably wrong
Thinking you could break my fall
Lead me to recall
What it is I’m doing here
And why I’ve left my home
I’m older now and full of fear
From being here alone
And so I float
As I crawl to bed
Praying that I never dive into hell again
I’d write it in my chicken scrawl
If I could find a pen
But I know I don’t mean a word of anything I’ve said

It's alright it always comes to me
It's not me
I heard there's writing on the wall
There's no mistaking it at all
The Devil's waiting in the hall
I left the light on

Raised On Candy Montclair, New Jersey
Weaving together Scotty Imp's precise rhythms with Joe Penna's pyro-friendly guitars, New Jersey band Raised On Candy turns
chaos into hooks to crank out sharp, noisy rock.
Their debut LP was made at Electrical Audio with Steve Albini, inventor of the Wiffle Ball pitch, The Puzzler.
