A Blue Psalm

Timothy Price56 Comments

A Blue Psalm was first published by Gabriela Marie Milton in 2021. I wrote the poem in response to bloggers who wrote about the horrific abuse they experienced growing up and how difficult it is for them to deal with it as adults. I recently reworked the original song with new vocal tracts. I used some butterfly photos (mine) and videos I borrowed from the Internet as metaphors for people who have been abused.

A Blue Psalm
Lyrics and Music by Timothy Price

Oh, Lord? Oh Lord?
Why have you hated me?
How in my innocence
Have I sinned?
To be damned from birth
Neglected and abused
While you looked on
Like I was nothing more
Than the Devil’s spawn
I am broken, so broken
A pile of bones laid at your feet
Show mercy, oh Lord
Mold me, reshape me, make me whole
I want to feel loved, normal, happy, whole

Timmy And The Cats

It’s been a while since I recorded a new parody. Laurie suggested I write a parody of Elton John’s Benny And The Jets and call it Timmy And The Cats. So I did. And here it is.

Timmy and the Cats
Music by Eton John
Parody Lyrics by Timothy Price

Hey Cats, Beaker shakes loose feathers
You’re scratching on something
That was known as my black leathers
You’ll kill a big fat mouse tonight, leaving it around
I’m gonna hear kitties purring, hissing, solid scratching sound

So, Glenda and Loki, have you seen them yet?
Ooh, but they’re so sprawled out
T-T-T-Timmy and the Cats
Oh, they’re so weird and they’re colorful
Timmy keeps their kitty litter clean

They’re like electric boobs, they’re shocking you
Squeezed through a ringer on a washing machine, oh oh oooh
T-T-T-Timmy and the Cats

Hey Cats, even though you are wage-less
You’re all so whiney, but Timmy makes it painless
You’ll all survive, Timmy will make you something out of wood
Where you fight with our parrots out on the sheets
To find who’s bad and who’s good

So Glenda and Loki, have you seen them yet?
Ooh, but they’re so sprawled out
T-T-T-Timmy and the Cats
Oh, they’re so weird and they’re colorful
Timmy keeps their kitty litter clean

They’re like electric boobs, they’re shocking you
Squeezed through a ringer on a washing machine, oh oh oooh
T-T-T-Timmy and the Cats

Say, Glenda and Loki, have you seen them yet?
Ooh, but they’re so sprawled out
T-T-T-Timmy and the Cats
Oh, they’re so weird and they’re colorful
Timmy keeps their kitty litter clean

They’re like electric boobs, they’re shocking you
Squeezed through a ringer on a washing machine, oh oh whoa
T-T-T-Timmy and the Cats

Timmae, Timmae and the Cats
Timmae, Timmae, Timmae, Timmae Timmae and the Cats
Timmae, Timmae, Timmae, Timmae and the Cats
Timmae, Timmae, Timmae, Timmae Timmae, Timmae and the Cats
Timmae, Timmae, Timmae, Timmae and the Cats
Timmae, Timmae, Timmae, Timmae and the Cats
Timmae

Like A Skinny Crow

Like a Skinny Crow
Lyrics and Music by Timothy Price

Are they really so enlightened?
When they spread their darkness all around
Crushing creatives under foot
Oblivious to the pain they cause
They gather, and they celebrate
Making fun of deplorables who they hate

We are like a skinny crow
Scavenging in a parking lot
Wandering in a wilderness
of cement, rocks, and hot asphalt
Tearing at the morsels
Secured in those crumpled bags
Dodging tires than the drivers
No one seems to give a damn

I put on my spectacles
Only to see the spectacle
Of those who we trusted with our votes
Up to no good, selling us short
Got up the courage to ask them why
They said, “You fool, ungrateful guy
Everything we do is for your own good
We know what’s best, please go away
You must be grateful and do what we say”

We are like a skinny crow
Scavenging in a parking lot
Wandering in a wilderness
of cement, rocks, and hot asphalt
Tearing at the morsels
Secured in those crumpled bags
Dodging tires than the drivers
No one seems to give a damn

Sealed In A Kiss

Timothy Price35 Comments

Sealed in a Kiss is a sappy song about love and lust in Paris, France. It starts out in the key of G Major with some dissonance representing sad memories. I change to the key of D Major for the guitar solo, then I move to the key of C Major for the bridge. I change back to the key of G Major for the last chorus and outro.

Sealed In A Kiss
By Timothy Price

[Verse]
Hanging filmstrips up to dry
The last memories I have of you
Sealed in silver and empty spaces
Your ghost drips under amber light

[Chorus]
Reminiscing about times gone by
How we were lost in our lust
And how we found our love
Sealed in a kiss

[Verse]
I think back when we locked lips
Entangled over the river Seine
Our tongues played yours and mine
That was all the French we knew

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Boy and girl caught in the cold rain
How the steam did rise
We came up for air from time to time
Mouth-to-mouth brought us back to life

[Chorus]
Reminiscing about times gone by
How we were lost in our lust
And how we found our love
Sealed in a kiss

[Outro]

Simple Is As Simpletons Can Be

Timothy Price48 Comments

This music video uses my light-hearted metal song of the same name. Hmm! A light-hearted metal song might just be an oxymoron. The song came about after a discussion with another blogger about how there is so much nonsense in the world and how some people accuse us of being simpletons for not understating nonsense.

Simple Is As Simpletons Can Be
Words and Original Music by Timothy Price

[verse]
simple is as simpletons can be
complex meanings we can’t see
simple is as simpletons can be
oh how big words make us freeze
simple is as simpletons can be
reciting poems makes us wheeze
simple is as simpletons can be
we have trouble with the ABCs

[chorus]
No alliteration; we can’t rhyme words
No counting syllables, no action verbs
Confuse the Sonnets with Ebonics
And the Tankas with the trucks
We can’t reflect on the Palindromes
Or the messages in Acrostic poems

[bridge]
I grew up reading comics like “Spy vs Spy”
No nouns or verbs in the storylines
Sketches on pages, each worth a thousand words
Prefer poetry in pics for the visual nerds

[verse]
simple is as simpletons can be
oh how the deep folks like to tease
simple is as simpletons can be
they say we’re dense like the trees
simple is as simpletons can be
we may be dense, but at least we are free
of deep thoughts, worries, anxieties, stress…

[chorus]
No alliteration; we can’t rhyme words
We can’t count syllables, no action verbs
Confuse the Sonnets with Ebonics
And the Tankas with the trucks
We can’t reflect on the Palindromes
Or the messages in Acrostic poems

Virtual World

A parody I made about VR and our Virtual World using DEVO’s Beautiful World.

Virtual World
By Timothy Price
Music by DEVO

It’s a virtual world we live in
A Tweet filled kind of place
Virtual people everywhere
All covered by AppleCare
Games they like to play
In a virtual world
Our virtual world
It’s a virtual world
Undo
See-through
PU

It’s a proverbial time to be here
A slap on the behind
Deep fake porn is everywhere
You see they have no hair
Shaved it all away
It’s a proverbial place
Unretreavable space
It’s a virtual place
from you
Me too
F-you

Hey!
What do you want to be?

Hey you with the goggles on
Watching VR of an old King Kong
Hey Hey

It’s a virtual world we live in
A Tweet filled kind of place
Virtual people everywhere
All covered by AppleCare
Games they like to play
In a virtual world
Our virtual world
It’s a virtual world
Undo
See-through
PU

Oh can’t you see (It’s a virtual world)
For you (It’s a virtual world)
For you (It’s a virtual world)
For you (It’s a virtual world)
Not me (It’s a virtual world)
It’s a virtual world
It’s a virtual world
It’s a virtual world
It’s a virtual, virtual world
It’s a virtual, virtual world
It’s a virtual, virtual world
It’s a virtual, virtual world

Quotes and Videos used in Virtual World Video:

Bible Quote:
Proverbs 29, Complete Jewish Bible

“29 He who remains stiffnecked after much rebuke
will be suddenly and incurably broken.

2 When the righteous flourish, the people rejoice;
but when the wicked are in power, the people groan.

3 Whoever loves wisdom brings joy to his father,
but a patron of prostitutes wastes his wealth.

4 A king gives stability to a country by justice,
but one who overtaxes it brings it to ruin.

5 A person who flatters his neighbor
spreads a net for his own steps.”
