lyrics

An old man from his chair,
He sits and stares at the sea.

But he’s actually unaware that he’s staring at a screen,
If the picture changes he thinks he’s in a dream.
He’s polite to all the nurses, he never curses,
He sits there dressed in a tie.
He’s waiting there happy in a fragmented mind,
Never does he notice the time.

And these days,
I’ve had a miserable way,
Of looking at things,
And these days,
I’ve had miserable way,
Of looking at things.

And I’m not sure if it’s any social disorder,
Or I’m just getting older,
But my hair is grey and I’m gaining weight,
And my body doesn’t feel the same,
But god damn it I’m not getting any younger,
Well if we look down under we’ll find bones asunder,
If we look down under we’ll find bones asunder.

And I don’t want to wake up on the wrong side of me.

And from his chair he sits and stares at the sea,
but he’s unaware that he’s actually staring at a screen,
yeah he’s unaware.

And these days,
I’ve had a miserable way,
Of looking at things,
And these days,
I’ve had miserable way,
Of looking at things.
I’ve had miserable way,
Of looking at things.
And these days and these days.

Bashful Hips Chicago, Illinois

Bashful Hips is an Avant Garde project from the mind of Ian Fellerman. Bringing his sometimes searing, sometimes hilarious but always poignant observations to bear over an entire stable of Noise Rock/Hip Hop informed Electronica, Ian's music is never stable, always changing and searching for the sound to express his feelings.
