Liam O'Brien Biography

Let Sleeper do as Sleeper does
And Dreamer men take flight in haze;
For while one wastes their precious time,
The other makes most of their days.
...

Lively models, under wing.
Under cloud. Never moving.
Ever still.

Contraptions built of words can reach
Planets beyond existence.
A guiding voice is needed first,
Then creative persistence.
...

Dressed up fine, ready to swing in time,
I set that Satchmo spinning.
My right hand clicks, he plays his licks,
You know that it's beginning.

Tunes of longing, tunes of blues.
'Til metal enshrouding the air does trump with
Tunes of longing, tunes of blues.
