lyrics

My brain has 50 bedrooms
So please turn off the light
My eyes aren’t made for lanterns
In my brain it shines too bright
Each bedroom has a girlfriend
Who’s gone out for the night
The covers lie like dirty snow
That’s given up the fight

My brain has 50 bedrooms
I wander in the dark
Feel my way down tilting stairs
Round doors light splits apart
Somewhere voices low and high
A conversation long
I take a seat and start to write
The verses of this song

My brain has 50 bedrooms
My brain has 50 doors
My brain has 50 ceilings
50 walls and 50 floors
Each bedroom has a girlfriend
Whose gone out for the night
The bedrooms are all empty
Please turn out the light

My brain has 50 bedrooms
They’ve cut off all the heat
The powers on just once a day
I’m trying to keep it neat
There’s damp on all the pillows
In the leaning candlelight
I knock down a cup and plate
And give myself a fright

about

Jody Barton Copenhagen, Denmark

Jody Barton was born and raised in the UK near London and now lives in Copenhagen. His rowdy and eclectic music calls to mind the post-punk and anarcho folk of Crass, Ian Dury & The Blockheads and just a little bit of Tim Curry. His latest project ‘Morris Maroon & Other Ballads’ is an open-ended work in progress both as a solo live set and recorded album.
