Leaky Connections

I got your call, you call everyday
You give my info to the NSA
Leaky Connections
I know you try, you try really hard
You wanna give it to the Scotland Yard
Leaky Connections
Leaky Connections
Friend whats a friend? Someone who sees you as a means to an end?
Foe, what’s a foe? I really don’t want to know!
Leaky Connections. Leaky connections.
Hack attack, I think I’ve been hacked
How am I gonna get my privacy back
Leaky Connections. Leaky Connections.
Maybe it doesn’t exist nowadays
Just passion plays in public display
Leaky Connections. Leaky Connections.
Someone’s listening on the end of the line
And they tell you that everything’s fine.
I wish they’d stop messing with me.
Verizon, AT&T
Leaky Connections. Leaky Connections.
Oh Big Brother, you’re such a bother
You always were the favorite of our father
84 has come and gone, Oh dear God, look at what they’ve done!

Whispering weirdos murmur your name
Gossiping goon boys bring you such shame
It doesn’t matter, just hold your head high
The only thing you have to say, just tell them goodbye
Everybody’s talking bout the person in a quandary
Everyone is messing with each other’s dirty laundry
Words won’t work when you’re talking to a jerk who puts you down
Sometimes it’s even better to just say nothing at all
Hey na na, hey na na, hey na na na.
Liars and fakes can do you such harm
Phonies confuse you with their toxic charm
Here’s my advice – just pay them no mind
They’re not important, just leave them behind
All the fools you’ve left behind deserve no explanation
Anything that you might say compounds the complication
Words won’t work when you’re talking to a jerk who puts you down
Sometimes it’s even better to just say nothing at all
Words won’t work when you’re talking to a jerk who puts you down
Sometimes it’s even better to just say nothing at all
Hey na na, hey na na, hey na na na.

All Of These Dreams
02:22
|
|||
Some people think it’s lots of fun
To bring you lots of trouble
They want you on the run
They want you thinking double
We blame the scapegoat ‘cause we don’t know what to
(We blame the scapegoat)
And you're the scapegoat so we put the blame on you
All of these dreams have grown
All of these dreams have flown
All of these dreams were mine
All of these dreams so fine.
Sometimes I get so down
In this old company town
The way they play the game
The way they lay the blame
We blame the scapegoat ‘cause we don’t know what to
(We blame the scapegoat)
And you're the scapegoat so we put the blame on you
All of these dreams have grown
All of these dreams have flown
All of these dreams were mine
All of these dreams so fine.

(I Wanna Be) Legitimate
02:19
|
|||
Some people said I’d never win
The fake news lied, they backed Clinton
But hey guess what? Here I am
It’s really great to be head of state.
The Electoral College has all that knowledge
And hey, they picked me.
When you’re the best you pass every test
Without any scruples and millions of rubles.
I wanna be legitimate, more than a fluke or accident
I wanna be your president, to say “I won, we’re number one.”
Some people say I’m just not right
They call me names, a trilobite
The say that I have tiny hands,
The judge my hair, it’s just not fair.
The system ain’t broken, the electors have spoken
And hey, I’m their man.
History shows, as everyone knows,
It’s all part of Russia’s plan.
I wanna be legitimate, more than joke that makes no sense
I wanna be your president, to say “I won, we’re number one.”
I wanna be legitimate, I wanna be legitimate, I wanna be legitimate.

I.N.R.M.
03:22

There once was a time when I danced so sublimely
It was so much fun to shine like the sun
Now, I’m not really mental
I’m just kinda sentimental
I’m hoping for a brainstorm, and not too much thereafter
I’m not really scary, Just ask my old friend Harry
I put him in a novel, now I live in a hovel.
Oh, Father Time, won’t you send a Valentine?
Someone strong, someone mine, someone kind and divine?
Because, I’m not really mental, I’m just kinda sentimental
I’m hoping for a brainstorm, and not much else thereafter
I’m not really crazy, just ask my new friend Tazy
He put us at The Slidebar, the rest is kind of hazy.
Imagine if you’re blamed, labeled and maimed
By a bitter old crone who sits on a throne
And claims you can’t be tamed, yeah!
I’m not really mental, no no, no no,
I’m not really mental at all no, no, no.
I’m not really mental, no no, no no,
I’m not really mental at all no, no, no.

Housing Crisis
02:37
|

Housing crisis drives a man into the hands of his accuser
Housing crisis drives a man into the hands of his abuser
No place to live (x4)
Housing crisis makes no sense
There must be some consequence
People starving in the cold
While others accumulate gold
No place to live (x2)
Housing crisis drives a man into the hands of his accuser
Housing crisis drives a man into the hands of his abuser
Has no place to lay his head
Cannot get his daily bread
People starving in the street
Without any shoes on their feet
No place to live (x2)
One world is enough for all of us
It doesn’t take that much to be generous.
No place to live (4x out).

Bye Bye, Bones
02:40
|
|||
There once was a brother who gossiped like a mother
And told all the stories he could
The stories weren’t verified, their purpose became clarified
To hurt Brick Bosso in the neighborhood
Bye Bye, Bones, I’ll guess I’ll miss out on your majestic tones
Bye Bye, Bones, Sometimes it’s better to be alone, Bye Bye Bones.
Words can hurt, they can knock you in the dirt,
They can push you down to the ground
When the rumors and dread were already said
Brick Bosso made a musical sound
Bye Bye, Bones, I’ll guess I’ll miss out on your majestic tones
Bye Bye, Bones, Sometimes it’s better to be alone,
Bye Bye Bones, Good luck and I wish you lots of fun
Bye Bye Bones, remember ‘Leaky Connections” is your number one,
Bye Bye Bones.
Mike and Jon, Carry on.
Tim and Dan, what’s the plan?
Bye Bye, Bones, I’ll guess I’ll miss all your majestic tones
Bye Bye, Bones, Sometimes it’s better to be alone,
Bye Bye Bones, Good luck and I wish you lot’s of fun
Bye Bye Bones, remember ‘Leaky Connections” is your number one,
Bye Bye Bones.

brick bosso Los Angeles, California
I've been playing music on keyboards ever since I got turned on to Ragtime music as a kid, thanks to the chart topping single "The Entertainer," by Scott Joplin. I find creating music addictive -- I use virtual and hardware synths, drum machines, production tools and sometimes guitar. Though for truly stellar guitar work I turn to Mark Abbruzzese and Eric Endo. ... more
