Ends Meat (Maurice) 02:41
lyrics
Gimme something good to eat Don't want it to smell like feet Large portions, not petite Something savory something sweet Don't wanna wait, just bring the plate I have been here before You always leave me wanting more Sitting in a chair Where's the silverware? I would like a menu please I'll start with the crackers and cheese Now whetting the appetite Can't wait for the first bite Crunching and chewing, that's what I'm doing Got to get it all down, all the morsels that can be found I'm really shoveling away There's not much else to say Eating everything in sight Searching for the perfect bite My window is closin' Not sure what I have chosen It's quite a feet When ends meat Time to get your fill Let's split the bill Your life's complete When ends meat

Ends Meat (Otto) 02:38
lyrics
Put some spine in it Another cheek now This isn't dinner, is it? It's no treat when you eat ends meat No one should see the recipe Put some elbow in it Tails and organ cuttings This is dinner, isn't it? When you're hungry you'll eat anything So hungry but what is this thing?

Forest Factory (Maurice) 02:52
lyrics
Welcome to my artificial land Made by human hands Everything you see Was made by me You'll love what you see at Forest Factory Shelves lined with trees at Forest Factory Yes, you can shake the leaves Watch out for homemade bees at Forest Factory The real thing is messy and dirty Do you want one tree or thirty? We create it all Creatures big and small Get your slugs and bugs No, we don't sell rugs Now get in line For exotic pines at Forest Factory Two-headed crows We'll give it a go Everything in the forest is in here Now you have nothing to fear We've taken all the woodland dangers But you might still have to talk to strangers Please come back soon New items arriving at noon

Forest Factory (Otto) 03:59
lyrics
We were talking about building a shed And these are the very words that to me she said: "What's the place where all the lumber grows? The forest factory?" I said, "I don't know." Forest factory, yeah. Forest factory, yeah. I think she meant lumber yard but I can't be sure She says a lot of stuff so it's all a blur I might apply at the forest factory I'd like to spend my days just making trees

Garlic Tambourine (Maurice) 03:13
lyrics
How did it all begin? Searching through the vegetable bins When something caught my nose Yeah, that's the one I chose Garlic Tambourine Cutting chopping and slicing Doing a whole lot of spicing Now I got my music machine Yeah, that's my garlic tambourine Keeps vampires away Even during the day Such a treat to play Would make a fine sauté
6.
Garlic Tambourine (Otto) 02:55
lyrics
Garlic tambourine Obo with cheese Twice-baked violins Cello fresh squeezed When I shake mine, no one wants face time They stand far away whenever I play Garlic tambourine Dark chocolate bagpipes Tympani with ice cream Clarinet cheese bites Delicious if in key
7.
Happy Song 02:15
lyrics
It's a sunny day, clouds have gone away Goin' swimmin' apple pie These are things that make me smile Kickin' off my shoes, kick away those blues Makin' dinner, watch some shows Nobody cares if I don't wear clothes Havin' a good time, movin' my feet Runnin' out of lines so I'll just repeat Nobody cares if I don't wear clothes It's a happy song, who writes those? Then we'll have the obligatory breakdown Then we'll count it back 1 2 3 4

Invisible Man 02:10
lyrics
Invisible Man, Invisible Man (etc.)

Just Coffee (Maurice) 04:31
lyrics
Imagine in your mind A place where all the matter That matters is coffee All the streams, every seem filled With glorious delightful coffee Mmm, I want a cup Just coffee… Here I drive In my coffee car Made with the best beans From near and far No one is tired here And there is no sleep The bedroom is a place for The other things that you keep I know this dream to some Might sound like a nightmare But don’t worry I wasn’t going to share This utopia is all for me This utopia is This utopia is…
10.
Just Coffee (Otto) 02:32
lyrics
I was up late last night Just wasn't feeling right And when the morning came I still felt the same Oooo just coffee I can't eat a thing Not even the onion rings My stomach is turned around Only one thing will stay down
11.
The Loneliest Clown 04:32
lyrics
I'm the only one at home The definition of alone I hear no sound, no one around I don't even have my phone I put my ear to the ground Hear no on for miles around What did I say to make them go away? I'm the loneliest clown I want someone to see And someone to see me Is this how it has to be? No one cares about my nose Or my brightly tattered clothes Was this the day? Did the big top blow away? And will it ever come back down? What did I say to make them go away? I guess the circus left town
12.
Lovesick Iguana 04:08
lyrics
Lovesick iguana comin' here to take me home All the marijuana stored up in my skin and bones Maybe I got it wrong Sometimes there's nobody home But I can build a campfire, I can grease a cake pan real good Lord please understand me, I'm trying to do as I should Maybe I got it right Can you squeeze a diamond too tight? Maybe there's nothing wrong After all it's just a song
13.
Make Sun While the Hay Shines 02:12
lyrics
Get a big shovel, it's time to dig deep You got places to go, promises to keep Make sun while the hay shines That building won't build itself Put those negative feelings up on the shelf Feet going forward, never back No time for dilly-dally, no time for snacks You got this, you can't lose It's your time, no time to snooze There is no "I" in "team" but there is in me Visualize your dreams and they will be
14.
Pinwheel 04:39
lyrics
Like a propeller and a kaleidoscope Up one side and down the other The wind sends me round and round All day long, round and round Flicker reflections on the ground Round and round like a pinwheel Round and round On a day just like today I want to be just where I am Spinning eternally, outside and internally I make a clicking sound I'm stuck in the ground
15.
Punk Rock Aunt 03:08
lyrics
Dressed like the 8 ball She put the hammer down She's all menthol She comes from over town Her trash can, your trash can't She ain't heavy she's my punk rock aunt She's in free-fall But she's buckled down She'd 5 feet tall and fully musclebound
16.
Random B 02:35
lyrics
The armadillo chases the aqueduct And the vending machines all leave for another world All the cheeses will be offered a manicure But most of them prefer to be squirrels Cuz it's random, yeah it's random Tomorrow a sweet bun gets electrified The soldiers and kittens all boogie down (yes they do) It all makes sense if you take it out of context When the symptoms of rocket ships are clown Carry the water in a vacuum tube Walk away, walk away from the sun (bet you can't) All I can tell you is antifreeze Until all the pagan omelettes are done
17.
Secret Agent Dan 03:41
lyrics
He's a loaded gun aimed at everyone Drops in from the sky, submarine goodbye He's trained to stay calm tied to a ticking bomb With a daring plan, Secret Agent Dan In a suave disguise with a big surprise Climbing up the town, the man of the hour Knows just what to do, transmitter in his shoe More than a common man, Secret Agent Dan Our most desperate hour, other men would cower He stands all alone defending us at home A deadly car chase to save the human race The ladies understand Secret Agent Dan
18.
Unvisible Man 04:02
lyrics
Every morning I wonder why I look in the mirror and there's nothing to find I eat my cereal alone You can't see through me You just don't see me I'm the Unvisible Man No one can see I'm getting fat In my sunglasses and cravat My reflection is out on loan Feel like a shadow on the street People don't notice me, our eyes never meet Am I still made of skin and bone? So I'll say goodbye and go away No one will notice anyway I eat my cereal alone But it looks like no one's home Eat my cereal alone

about

Here are some more songs we cooked up. We give each other song title challenges that we both must fulfill, so that's why more than one can end up with the same name. We like to use first takes, putting a lot of time into things is hard on our think meats.

They might be rock clichés but they are our rock clichés. It's impossible to know where all of this will end up. Or is it?

We sting like a butterfly and float like a bee. And so should you.

Sack of Pinkies Grand Mound, Washington

SoP is Maurice and Otto making music in our nowhere land for nobody. We aim only to please ourselves but we're happy if you like it, too. We are 100% homemade and free of any interest in fame. Not that that's on the table. We give each other song challenges. We mostly play real instruments made of wood and strings. We use canned drums and we have no shame about it. Analog drummers eat a lot. ... more
