This is how I feel sometimes.
Hard-rocking, guitar-driven blues-influenced music.
Note June 2024: All of the songs with a RED guitar picture tag to the left were recorded LIVE over backing tracks created with an Nux Loop Core and an Ammoon Pock-Rock. Glarry GTL semi-hollow tele copy guitar used. Mini digital voice recorder with Shure and Fender mikes captured it all live.
All the songs with yellow guitar picture tag are the previously recorded blues style songs.
These are some songs I started writing and recorded in late 2005, early 2006. I recorded them at home in my loft using cassette machines and a couple of microphones. Pretty barebones stuff. I keep writing and adding new songs as I get the motivation. Life provides lots of that. Check out the videos that I just added, all performed with Crazy Mixed Up World. (see Crazy Mixed up World at reverbnation.com). Songs sound best with headphones.
Story behind the song
Sick & tired of listening to the talking heads. Politically correct this!!
Lyrics
BABY BOOMER BLUES(DP)
(Written by David R. Pankoski Feb 2006)
They told me whats right, They told me whats wrong.
I heard it at school, I heard it in a song.
They told me in church, I even heard it at home.
Im dazed & confused, Dont know what to do.
Everybody says different, But I got to choose.
(Its just the Baby Boomer Blues.)
I have a good life, By any modern measure.
Not a lot of pain, My choice of pleasure.
Ive got everything, I ever could want.
My life is secure, My success I dont flaunt.
Ive got no guilt bout the past, Nothing to haunt.( )
I look around, And cant help but see.
Others, though few, That have less than me.
There are times that I give, to those in with less.
But feel no guilt, they made their own mess.
Do what I have to do, Nothing to confess.( )
You try to blame all, The worlds problems on me.
Your priorities mixed up, Worried about a tree.
But you dont refuse, The prosperity I create.
How dare you question, Wonder why Im irate.
Get outta my face, Ill put you in your place.( )
Ive got nothing to prove, To any of your class.
I still look to the future, I have a proven past.
Ive done it all, You can only dream.
You think you know, Your silly little schemes.
Ive seen it before, Ive fulfilled my dreams. ( )
My parents are aging, Way past their prime.
Kids don?t wanna visit, Aint got the time.
Im livin the good life, Just like I planned.
Ive got a long way to go, You dont understand.
Ive done it all before, I dont need your hand. ( )
