Headstone
02:23
|
|||
|
Aided by sickness prescriptions allowed
Leave me to rot when I rest underground
Blistered in fire & drowning in heat
Cleanse me with water, but please be discreet
Headstone
You're my headstone
Blood has stopped pumping, a stumbling heart
Words have start crumbling, right from the start
Roses have wilted, the ones that I gave
The pleasure I get when you visit my grave
Headstone
You're my headstone

Dirty trigger
03:27
|
|||
|
Love note stuck on the mirror
Whenever she's gone so I could see her
Never easy to stay goodnight
Never easy to make the wrong things right
But you got a slender finger
I've got a dirty trigger
Through the wind & dust
A total lack of trust
You aught to know
You aught to know
You aught to know you're so cold
Some lipstick on the collar
She was here to leave a subtle reminder
The situations we shared
The consequences for we just don't care
But you've got a gentle mind
I've got a rusty knife
In a spree of lust
A total lack of trust
You aught to know
You aught to know
I never ever want to fight
Maybe I'll get lucky tonight

Fluorescent nights
04:34
|
|||
|
Do you know what time it is?
It's way past midnight
Curled up in the alleyways
It's way past your bedtime
Calm down by the streetlights
Past the yelling voices
Trapped under florecant nights
Walking on broken glass
We try to remove
The shards that leave us bleeding
We drag the forgotten mass
We try to escape
The memories that leave us needing
Sneaking through the window
A turning of the tides
Smoking my cigarette
I'm losing my mind
Panic on the sidewalk
With displeasing noises
But I'm not one to talk
Don't wait for anything else
Don't wait
Again

Jealousy
02:44
|
|||
|
Waiting for the first summer rain
Bless this unholy mess
Of winters that have passed
Water washed and cleansed
Jealousy, jealousy, oh jealousy
You keep getting the best of me
Jealousy, jealousy, oh jealousy
You're making a fool of me
Shine the light through the blindfold
Efforts of appreciation
Dripping with delliberation
Reflected in the combination
Jealousy, jealousy, oh jealousy
You keep seeing the worst of me
Jealousy, jealousy, oh jealousy
You're making a fool of me

Sour pill
03:01
|
|||
|
It's getting cold
And these bones are growing old
There is a hole
In my pocket where my money should go
Some spare change
Swept up from the stains
Upon my carpet
Won't get me by, but I'll try
There's something sweet
About the skid marks on your knees
A sweet release
It's something we use to see
I'm feeling ill
All the stories I had to spill
A sour pill
To swallow when you kill
I walk the line
All puns have been implied
Upon this sentence
Sent without reply

Let me in
02:11
|
|||
|
I want to know what's going on
When everything keeps wrong
Is it a sin?
Why won't you let me in?
It's so hard to get along
When I'm drinking like a dog
Where have you been?
Why won't you let me in?
I've got a monkey on my back
I think these bone's about to crack
Self-esteem is just a hole
C'mon baby let the bad times roll
Is it a sin?
Why won't you let me in?
Where have you been?
Why won't you let me in?

Done waiting
02:38
|
|||
|
Sitting alone
Reap what you sow
Do what you're told when no-one else is home
Just waiting
Relax and recline
The habit is mine
A heart that is blind will always be denied
Just waiting
It's hard to stay in line
Down on my luck
Stuck in the dark
Life's getting hard, but I don't give a fuck
Just waiting
The moment is here
I'll take you my dear
I'll tell you just what you wan't to hear
Done waiting
It's hard to stay in line
So let's get out of here

Quite a while
03:00
|
|||
|
It's getting dark
And it's been coming for quite a while now
It's glowing grim
And it's been fading for quite some time now
Sleep tight baby girl
The end will rise at noon
Sleep tight baby girl
The end is coming soon
I'm getting old
And I've been drowzy for quite a while now
I'm getting bored
And I've been trying for quite some time now

The motion is slow and restrictions are low
Reflections are on their way out
The covers unfold, lines are drawn
I know we're going to war
The windows are shut, the soul is not sleeping any time soon
Open your heart, open your wounds
I know we're going to war
The tention is high, spending quality time
With my anxieties
Shots are flying around, behind enemy lines
I know we're going to war
The mirror is cold, stained with time
Keeps projecting your lies
Open your heart, open your sores, because we're going to war

Good mourning
03:30
|

Good mourning, good morning to you
I hope you've got the strength
I hope you've got the will to live
I hope you have yourself a great day
Good mourning, good morning to you
I hope you're feeling well
I hope you've got a story to tell
I hope you have yourself a great day
Good mourning, good morning to you
I hope you don't have to wait
I hope you're not running late
I hope you have yourself a great day
Good evening, good evening to you
I'm glad to see you're back
I'm glad to see you're not too tired
I hope you had yourself a great day

Caution Boy Pretoria, South Africa
Somewhere between the highway & the railroads of the Moot (Pretoria, South Africa), smothered by its suburban industrial
coma, came a one man army (Andi Cappo), filled with punk screams, stoner basslines, pop grooves & screeching guitars.
The band now consists of Treveshan Pather (bass), Archie Kinnon (drums) & Andi Cappo (vocals & guitar).
