lyrics

Well there's sunlight shining through the blind
Of the only dark corner that I could find
Funny, I don't recall my eyelids ever being so damn thin
I think I drank a porcupine
And the quills are playing hell on my insides
Sunny-side-up and chicken fried, washed down with a quart of bathtub gin

Maybe I was out of my mind
But it seemed like a good idea at the time
And now I'm

Bright-tailed and bushy-eyed
Bright-tailed and bushy-eyed
Bright-tailed and bushy-eyed
And I'll do it again tonight

Well sometimes it almost seems surreal
When I'm thinking back on how I used to feel
Vinegar, piss, and high ideals
Chalk it up to youthful naivety
Well they say chance favors a prepared mind
But these thirty-one flavors have impaired mine
Look a little deeper, you'll likely find the root cause of all this insanity

My head's spinning like a red rubber ball
Sorry, I'm not in but I'll return your call
When I'm not

Bright-tailed and bushy-eyed
Bright-tailed and bushy-eyed
Bright-tailed and bushy-eyed
And we'll be in here all night
Yeah, we're doing it all night
Won't come out til the morning light
Yeah, we're doing it all night

about

Steve Rempis Nashville, Tennessee

Inspired to pick up a guitar by the video for the song "You Got Lucky" by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers ("My Beatles-on-Ed Sullivan-moment"), I began writing songs while still in my pre-teens.

Musically, my songs range from country to pop to rock to every sub-genre imaginable. I write what I feel, and leave the labels to the critics. ... more
