Hi folks. I have added a lot of videos recently. Please take a look!
Hi folks, This site acts as a personal archive of my work. So you'll find my best recordings here as well as some pretty crappy ones. The earliest recordings here were made on simple cassette decks, others were made on mobile phones, some are live recordings made at various gigs over the years, a handful were made in small recording studios, but most of the more recent ones were made at home on a Zoom portable studio, which itself is now rather ancient! If you like a song and want to download it, click on 'Full song info' for that song and you will see the download link. You can also read the lyrics and any background information on the songs that I may have added. All my music is available for free - enjoy :) cheers, Charles

Story behind the song
This live cut features me and my friend Lawrence Bullock (see www.soundclick.com/lawrencebullock) playing and singing in duet at the Seagull Inn in Mendocino on Jan 18 1985. The song is a tribute to young street punks and skater kids of both sexes everywhere - it's really about the Lolita syndrome - for the love of youth and beauty people will put up with almost anything :) The picture shows the lovely Mariah Bear and Moon Root at the 'Day at the Acres' event in Mendocino - 1985 I think. Where are you now you punk angel legends?
Lyrics
You smoke cigarettes and I don't like the way your kisses taste You're always late when we make a date - you're such a space case You've got a strange way of being nice And you never take my advice You've got a chip on your shoulder cause you wanna be older You can freeze like a block of ice But you do it to me And no-one else can do it like you do it to me And I'm not looking for anyone new Cause no-one else can do it like you You wake in the night and you turn on the light and watch TV You steal my jeans and my magazines - it drives me crazy You leave your clothes on the bathroom floor You spend my money then you ask for more You ran away from your mother cause you scream at each other Now I'm caught up in a full-scale war But you do it to me And no-one else can do it like you do it to me And I'm not looking for anyone new Cause no-one else can do it like you You act like a queen when we're out on the scene And you know you are With your purple hair and your nose in the air You're a superstar You don't believe in the 9 to 5 You say the human race can't survive You dance like a monkey - you're a junk food junkie And you're lucky that you're still alive But you do it to me And no-one else can do it like you do it to me And I'm not looking for anyone new Cause no-one else can do it like you No I'm not looking for anyone new Cause no-one else can do it like you No I'm not looking for anyone new Cause no-one else can do it like you!
