Paranormal paranoia paired with acoustic accoutrements, inordinate insecurity, sets of self-depracation, and pop playfulness combined with a wee bit o creativit
Don't Let That Horse is Les Harrison's one-man musical extravaganza and a nice outlet to share and push me to write new music.

Story behind the song
I came across www.lilyonthedustbin.com (Canadian political, feminist, music loving blogger extraordinaire) while searching for Elliott Smith info (she's a huge fan). I had never heard the term "lily on the dustbin" before and was inspired. After browsing and reading the site, the words just poured out. lily on the dustbin: a woman overdressed for the occasion; a misfit; a wallflower, a shag on a rock.
Lyrics
Lily On The Dustbin Teach me how a wallflower grows Show me love I’ve never known We’ll find that time w/out end Lily on the Dustbin She’s just a misfit to them Blood of a royal Canadian Too much for this Ragamuffin Lily on the Dustbin Too Decked out to fit in the crowd She just radiates way too loud Shine on my rainy heart again Lily on the Dustbin She stands out from the weeds She’s all you want or ‘ll ever need Knock her down-you’re just jealous of her And want her for your lover You realize your mistake and see what Trouble you’re willing to get in. . . You’ll try again and again She’s forever and you’re just a trend Lily on the Dustbin I want to share your space Don’t want to conquer or win Can I be your lover, maybe just your friend Lily on the Dustbin You could call it an obsession I prefer conjecture with a spin You’re a sea I wanna’ dive in Lily on the Dustbin Come to me now, Come to me again Smile Upon me with that sweet pierced chin Want you so much it’s gotta be a sin You’ll leave me before we ever begin. Lily on the Dustbin Lily on the Dustbin Lily on the Dustbin.
