Bitten by a pink butterfly My sweet Lady Luck I thought had run dry Never heard a sound as pretty As her voice Never thought I’d be the one Who’d be her first choice and be someone she needs Drifting off on a cloud go I Awakened by a sweet lullaby Reached only for the Moon And I got the stars So little I’d wanted But I’ve come so far to be someone she needs My sweet little robot anime girl In a Bo Peep dress With a headful of curls She’s a pink lullaby in a Wide-awake world of dreams Written words I plant in the sky She’s not far from Heaven, nor am I Whenever I unwrap her Like a gift from above I love to hear her say the words that She is in love with me I’m someone she needs My sweet little robot anime girl In a Bo Peep dress With a headful of curls She’s a pink lullaby in a Wide-awake world of dreams My sweet little robot anime girl In a big pink dress With a headful of curls She’s a pink lullaby in a Wide-awake world of dreams (musical break) Bitten by a pink butterfly Drifting off on a cloud go I Bitten by a pink butterfly Drifting off on a cloud go I Bitten by a pink butterfly Drifting off on a cloud go I

Ya Gotta Open Your Heart 03:19

Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. I had my heart torn out and stomped upon on the floor. I swear to God I’ll never fall in love or wanna be in love no more. Ain’t got no time for pain or loss, or tolerance for more. I’m gonna save my face and keep my feelings locked up for sure. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. I lost a friend and love kept walking on out the door. A lover hurt me deeper and harder than any war. I’m left with hate and anger and less than I bargained for. Now someone else is f**king my love and I’m in tears on the floor. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. I lost my best friend. Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. Someone played me for a fool Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again. I can’t believe this is the end (Ya gotta learn to start, you gotta open your heart!) I can’t help cry like a child (Ya gotta open your heart, you gotta start to love again.) I miss you my friend.

about

Pink Butterfly (Reimagined) delves into Dream Pop and Bedroom Pop territory, with tinges of jangly guitars, ebow, and synth. It is a re-working of a previous release that I never felt was fully realized, so I pulled down the old version and started over again. (Hey, if Bob Mould can do it, so can I.)

To really step out of my comfort zone, I employed the use of A.I. to create the album cover artwork. It's funny, I'm actually getting used to the cover and might even be falling in love with the artificial girl generated there. Only kidding.

I realize there may be new Bandcampers discovering my work, so I created a sort of waterfall single to help you catch up. I've strung together 3 other recent tracks that seem to round out this collection, and will hopefully generate repeat listening, and ultimately turn you into one of my new super fans.

Thanks for supporting Indie artists!
