lyrics
That boy he never was nobody’s fool
Always running with the too damn cool for school
But one day the egg fell off the spoon
You must be so proud
'Cos he died living out his dreams
Blowing himself into smithereens
Purring like the cat that got the cream
Well what about me?
I'm afraid you're barking up the wrong tree
You get what you deserve for running with scissors
You don't know which way to turn in a hall of mirrors.
They say a man is judged by the risks he takes
But he who dares wins isn't always the case
He looked like a gentleman-at-arms
A marching contradiction in terms
He played with fire and he got burned
Well what did you expect?
He was making more than most
Always shooting off and quick to boast
But he knew one wrong move
And he's toast
What about me?
I'm sorry to say that I've just got no sympathy
You get what you deserve for running with scissors
You don't know which way to turn in a hall of mirrors.
They say a man is judged by the risks he takes
But he who dares wins isn't always the case
Is it?
Not all the tea in China, not all the guns in America
Nothings gonna bring him back
You get what you deserve for running with scissors
You know that you'll get burned for playing with fire-arms
Always running with the too damn cool for school
But one day the egg fell off the spoon
You must be so proud
'Cos he died living out his dreams
Blowing himself into smithereens
Purring like the cat that got the cream
Well what about me?
I'm afraid you're barking up the wrong tree
You get what you deserve for running with scissors
You don't know which way to turn in a hall of mirrors.
They say a man is judged by the risks he takes
But he who dares wins isn't always the case
He looked like a gentleman-at-arms
A marching contradiction in terms
He played with fire and he got burned
Well what did you expect?
He was making more than most
Always shooting off and quick to boast
But he knew one wrong move
And he's toast
What about me?
I'm sorry to say that I've just got no sympathy
You get what you deserve for running with scissors
You don't know which way to turn in a hall of mirrors.
They say a man is judged by the risks he takes
But he who dares wins isn't always the case
Is it?
Not all the tea in China, not all the guns in America
Nothings gonna bring him back
You get what you deserve for running with scissors
You know that you'll get burned for playing with fire-arms

Beyond The Static
by Nick Piuntisupported by 20 fans who also own “DDT”
Nick Piunti's third album confirms the idiosyncratic talent of this musician who keeps churning out fantastic power-pop tunes that would rejoice even the most jaded pop-rock fan, whether young or old, if they knew about the existence of 'Beyond the Static'.

No Weapon But Love
by Icecream Handssupported by 18 fans who also own “DDT”
Such a joyful collection of songs. Nothing like quintessential Melbourne alternative rock to lift the spirits. Listening during yet another lockdown transports me to a band room in my favourite pub. Thanks for the music lads- looking forward to seeing you for real when we get outta here.

This Calgary group makes goth-y post-punk attired in the brightly colorful arrangements of bleep-boop synthesized psychedelia.

The New Sell Out
by Futureman Recordssupported by 18 fans who also own “DDT”
Decent homage to what I consider one of the finest English (as in region in south of British Isles, rather than language or mistaken term for entire UK) Folk records of the Twentieth century.
