She's Giving Us a Weird Expression

 


She's Giving Us a Weird Expression - Second Version

This is the next song in the possession album; Timmy, Bobby, and Father O'Malley see the girl looking weirded out. 

There're 2 versions of it...this was smack dab in the middle of the worst of my struggles with my voice being all fucked up and as a result, I don't really like either version. But I think the top one is better than the bottom one, even though I did the bottom one, thinking it would improve on the top one. In any event, I think the song's okay enough, so maybe someday I'll redo it at some point, so the singing doesn't sound shitty.

The lyrics are:

 We are sitting down, and we're gonna smoke some weed

Then we see her frown - is there something that she needs?

She's holding the bong, and she's holding the lighter

Is there something wrong? What's going on inside her?


She's giving us a weird expression, She's giving us a weird expression, She's giving us a weird expression - now, right now


She looks like she's seen a ghost from her expression

Is it something from her previous possession

And she looks like she needs to make a confession

Or it might be she needs a therapy session 


She's giving us a weird expression, She's giving us a weird expression, She's giving us a weird expression - now, right now

She is looking at the lighter that she's holding

And she looks like some serious shit's unfolding

We'll listen with a measure of apprehension

Is this something that's beyond all comprehension?


Now we realize that she has her eyes on the lighter's light

Is it something frightening?

It might be a shade - should we be afraid?

What is in the flame?

Does it have a name?

Is there a spirit that she is seeing?

No, we don't mean booze - is it a being?

Maybe it is a specter or shade in the lighter's light

Is she afraid

She's giving us a weird expression, She's giving us a weird expression, She's giving us a weird expression - now, right now

Here's the other little player thingy:


I did a second version of this song, but it sucks. Here it is, though. It sucks.
