about

Glue Huffing goodness oh me oh my, street name in guatemagia.

lyrics

The whole thing works so slow from the beginning,
tip-top’s on your mind before you know
and I hear your voice a screaming from the pillow
just breathe on in and deep to start the show

I said that you and me are going to take it far
Take in puffs o glue until the strays are straw
But I never thought id ever have to see
The same old type of smoke that came out of you and me

Well I say, no don’t get alarmed girl, things are gonna turn out aok
I promise you and your grandmother, ill not waste you for the day

I said everything that was around all on my face is painting
Working so hard to put myself on feet
I been jump jumping all morning on this bed lord
Wont you try to give me help to make me me

I see everyone over my shoulder And I don’t like just how they disappear
I see that everyone gets closer and closer, and that’s just what I start to begin to fear
Its that when I reach to touch theres no one there, and I cant get myself from beneathe the chair
Ive got them freaks that keep on riding all night long
But im gonna make the same time while the will is strong

But I cant take no more of this tip-top, you gonna have to get her off my mind
Its that shes been sitting on my shelf all day now, making blames just to pass my time

Gringo Moko Oakland, California

The bulk of Gringo Moko's discography was composed improvisationally, from his time playing at bars and on buses across Guatemala. His sound is rooted in up-tempo Cumbia and Balkan beats, intermingled with folk, gospel, and alternative influences, and calls on a medley of improvised, digital, and DIY instruments to form the uniquely patchwork playstyle of his lively, high-energy live shows. ... more
