you dragged him down into a wishing well, i guess it’s your wish to hide him under the water, it refracts your face and contracts a space, some distance aside from all others, I won’t follow in and I won’t throw money, my 2 cents won’t help you here, plus the water’s lookin' chili and I don’t wanna mess up my hair, could it be that what i need is just a little nudge along? cuz i could use a “3,2,1”, so guess i'll dive in slow with risk of drowning underneath, aquaman, if i find you, you better help me breath, no scuba gear and 2000 years, king the 7 seas and creatures of the deep, you're so misunderstood, they setup a zoo, submariner zombies and ghouls, let's find Atlantis before the robots do, you need to help me breath, when you drank his blood did you, did you become like aquaman, or did you turn into another underwater vampire?

ON THE HOOD OF A BUICK SIPPIN’ COLD HOT CHOCOLATE IN OLD NEW MEXICO, HOT AIR BALLOONS THEY LIGHT THEIR FLAMES, RISE IN THE EAST WITH THE SUN THE SAME, IT'S JUST THE TWO OF US WATCHING THE SHOW, I THINK I SEE DARTH VADER, BASKET BELOW HIS RESPIRATOR, A COW AND DRAGON DRAGGING HIS TAIL, BUT JUST WHEN YOU TURN TO SPEAK, YOUR MUSCLES GET WEAK, AND I WAKE UP FROM MY LITTLE DREAM, SOMETIMES WHEN I SLEEP, I DREAM AN OLD MEMORY, SO WE CAN STILL DO, WHAT WE USED TO DO, WHERE’D YOU RUN TO?  ARE YOU WITH THE MOUNTAINS AND HUCKLEBERRIES? WHY DOES IT FEEL SO MUCH COLDER IN JANUARY? I KNOW THIS VEST IS SO VERY UNNECESSARY, BUT I SWEAR IT FEELS SO MUCH COLDER IN JANUARY, lEGOS ON THE FLOOR, BEDTIME STORIES AT THE DOOR, travel GIFTS AND HOOTY HOOTS, WITH BROWN SOREL WINTER BOOTS, BUT JUST WHEN YOU TURN TO LAUGH, YOUR VOICE IT SLURS AND CRACKS, and I WAKE UP FROM MY LITTLE NAP, SOMETIMES WHEN I SLEEP, I DREAM NEW MEMORIES, AND IMAGINE AGAIN, WHAT WE COULD HAVE BEEN

Kung-Fu Grip 03:30
my left eye is twitchin’, nervously twistin’ my hair, there’s a monkey on my back, he’s in my pocket stealing my air, we’ve had some good times, but now you’ve gotta go, and i don’t need you, no i don’t need you, no i really don’t need you, there never was a monkey, i mean, ya know….until recently, cuz caffeine and nicotine used to be green beans and ovaltine, now i thought i was a cowboy, but i was just a coward boy, if cancer is cinematic you’ll bite my lip and look so dramatic, but i’m done now, i don’t need a bit, i’m alright with me, i promise there is…no way you’ll ever get to me again, no pain, i didn't break my legs so i’m done with these crutches, away, out of your kung-fu grip clutches, cuz i dont need you, no i don’t need you, no i really don’t need you, buy a ticket for a guilt trip, it's a gamble but it's snake eyes deadly, she’s working me, that killer bee, a poison dart into the monkey, start blowing bubbles with my gum, it's sinking in that it’s all done, fight the feeling i used to have, i don’t wanna be, that old stupid me, i don’t wanna be, like the cool guys in those 70's magazines, and I'm not gonna be, that old stupid me, cuz there's a killer bee, cuz there's a killer bee that loves me

A SIMPLE LIFE, A SIMPLE WISH, A SIMPLE DEATH FOLLOWS A SIMPLE KISS, AND A BUGLE SOUNDS A FLAG AT EASE, A BOY AND GIRL LEFT WONDERING, AND I KNOW, I KNOW, HOW IT COULD CUT YOUR HEART AND MAKE YOU CALLUS AND FALL LIKE A DYING STAR, SO WHERE'S THE DOCTOR WITH ILLNESS PROBABILITY, IF DEATH ROLLS DICE HE SHOULD ROLL ON ME, AND IF DEATH ROLLS DICE I HOPE HE ROLLS TWICE, TWO FOR ME AND NONE FOR YOU, CUZ YOU'VE GOT THINGS TO DO, AND IF DEATH ROLLS DICE I HOPE HE ROLLS TWICE, NONE FOR YOU AND TWO FOR ME, CUZ YOU'VE GOT KIDS TO FEED, A STIFF DRINK, A STASH OF LEAVES, NO WAKE UP TIME RESPONSIBILITIES, SO I'LL SAY HELLO MISS, HOW'S YOUR EVENING? THAT DRESS IS OH SO VERY FLATTERING, AND IF DARBY HEARS THE BANSHEE WAIL, YOU KNOW THE DEATH COACH IS CLOSE IN TAIL, THIS WASN’T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN, I’M THE ONE YOU WANT, and IF DARBY HEARS THE BANSHEE WAIL, YOU KNOW THE DEATH COACH IS STANDING RIGHT BEHIND YOU, you SHOULD GO BACK TO YOUR HOME

i’ve been studyin' the way you move, scooby doo and shaggy both fell through, but I finally solved this mystery, here’s a clue, dancing in your living room, i saw your heart and there's no venom, just your heart-stopping caramel center, I decided it would be alright if we dance again tomorrow and every single day until we die, I’m in it for the long game, if fate separates the peaches from the cream i’ll be waiting, I’m in it for the long game and if fate finds a way, i’ll pick the music and you can pick the day, underneath some wavy palms on a hammock with drinks, and singing songs, we could start a life together, it's ours, it's all ours, singing to a 90's song, i’ll see your heart and there's no venom, just your heart-stopping caramel center, it doesn’t have to be tomorrow, but where you go i’ll follow, and if you want to dance i’ll meet you on a beach and guarantee that…

about

The debut Ep from Grandpa Loves Rhinos featuring 5 new songs, including the single "What We Used To Do". Grandpa Loves Rhinos is comprised of two brothers, Paul (drums) and Seth (guitar/bass/vocals) Hyde. Originally rooted in North Idaho, their jobs in the Air Force have forced them to live hundreds of miles away from each other, separated by mountains, valleys, and creatures of the deep. Although distance plagues Grandpa Loves Rhinos, their desire to create music burns eternal. Using dropbox, musical equipment, and the world wide web, GLR creates music in correspondence. The band is named after their late Grandpa “Rawhide” and their music is a blend of modern rock, pop punk, and emo.
