Arabesque 04:02
Arabesque Seems I'm always the court Jester dancing around the Barbecue Making light of other's misfortunes Hey, I'm a witty dude oh oooh He's got style - he's got grace - no one says it to his face Instead a boot across his ass and he don't get his money back whoa whoa whoa whoa what a witty guy whoa whoa whoa whoa what a witty guy I throw it out they eat it up like feral swine in a restaurant when the going's good they pull me in and eat me with their eager grins (stirring up an arabesque, shaken' on the Jester's bell) then low an behold, when times get rough and goodly Jester needs some love The open doors and haven homes are quickly close and tightly shut Seems I'm the village idiot watch me dance right out of my shoes I'll even put on your mama's dress for you Cuz hey fucker, I'm a witty dude Oh oooh All that style all that waste, all that talent gone to waste Keep talking smack behind his back, you'll see the Jester's soul is black whoa whoa whoa whoa what a witty guy whoa whoa whoa whoa what a witty guy I throw it out they eat it up like feral swine in a restaurant when the going's good they pull me in but much to their astute (stirring up an arabesque, shaken' on the Jester's bell) then low an behold, when times get rough and goodly Jester needs some love The open doors and haven homes are quickly close and tightly shut Ha ha ha ho ho ho hope you all enjoyed the show know in time the count will grow, if you don't shake my jingle pole (adlib out)

Always in your smile Infragrant, yellow marigold makes bets against the beauty rose A lovers kiss intoxicates and it this that makes the ancients roar.... Gold like sun that burns your eyes it blinds you to the arrow flying sets burning fires, wild fires alive that keep your heart filled with false desires the turning points, the turning points they never join and it's..... Extravagance never faired too well the steps we're placing in this heathen's hell If all the people passing through the air spread out their arms there would be wings to spare.... (string arrangement) Gold like sun that burns your eyes it blinds you to the arrow flying sets burning fires, wild fires alive that keep your heart filled with false desires the turning points, the turning points they never join and it's.....

about

Charles Otis Gainesville, Florida

I'm a 60 year old musician, singer and songwriter residing in Gainesville, Florida. I've been at song crafting a very long time. I'm passionate about it. I think that memorable musical pieces can be like a short audio / film or story. I love mixing technology with traditional rock and exotic ethnic instrumentation. You'll find a little bit of everything in what I do.
