The Monkey Mind Swing - Mock track for Omar

in dsound •  6 years ago  (edited)


Well, I did a mock recording of this new song for my friend Omar who is in Istanbul who plays the Ud. We are recording together in October in Skopje. I liked the recording so much that I decided to share it here on dsound.

Here are the lyrics just for the hell of it:

The mind is a ruthless game of which we cannot afford to give much attention
The monkey mind that thinks is knows everything
Can act in control of everything
Yet it scurries away when responsibility comes knocking

Yes, I've got my bags to sort out
No it's not all roses and kisses
The obvious things that are dead in this world of many options, we
Toss out the window
La da, di, di, la, da, da, oh oh

Who are you to tell me what to do, when culture revolves around buying
Culture is dead and the vulture of consumerism is having a feast on its dead corpse
Gah, Gah, Gah - the birds they go

Headlong we travel into our organised oblivion
Our master, the machine learns us by the second
Where is the end to this matrimony, the end is the end of fashion
of love, of music, of expression

The end is a fake thing until it is real
Perfect beginnings, perfect endings, bored white blank nothingness
Sterile dungeon of timelessness, this is the end little creature
This is the end oh oh

The mind is a ruthless game of which we cannot afford to give much attention
The monkey mind that thinks is knows everything
Can get in control of everything
Yet it scurries away when responsibility comes knocking
tap tap tap

This is actually from an episode in the 'New' Music Series on dtube I've been releasing, which is based on automatic writing so here it is here: steemit.com/music/@montycashmusic/8yrmdt5m

Thanks for listening, there will be a professional release of the recording available online for free download through Bestiar Records based in Barcelona.

Wishing you well,
