about

Originally released on Dillbilly's 2008 record IN ME, "Duck & Cover" was recorded in Lewiston, Maine at the Faire Bande A Part Housing Cooperative.

lyrics

The lights in the bar move like water
Now I'm a wooden boat you turn into a windy sailor
And we sail across the mote and up the downstream channel
The channel changes by remote control into a bloody battle
With cannons firing away
And we dodge their aim
By duck and cover

The wreckage in the waves move like lava
Now I'm a molten rock you turn into a ruptured mountain
And we're dormant for a moment or two until noones watching
And then you heat up from the inside and melt my black solid body
Into a red and liquid state
We ooze and make our path of escape

The volcanic remains build an island
Where I'm a castaway you turn into a cave hiding
I go deep into your darkness and through your underground tunnels
And it leads me to a well full of cool, cool water
I drink and fall fast asleep
Where I dream we meet on an arctic beach.

about

Waxsimile Productions Oakland, California

Waxsimile is a record label operating out of Oakland, CA. Our genre-bending catalog stands apart from the typical mainstream pop, rock, country, and folk music. It is fun, whimsical, worldly, dark, and eerie and takes you from the alleyways of Chicago, to the streets of Beograd, and back to a dive bar in Louisville. We hope enjoy what you hear! ... more
