Art School

I went to school for art but ended up pushing papers
Lord knows that I've tried
I'm moving my arms over and I'm making my heart sound
But if you're only getting the best of me
Why should I stick around?
Everywhere I go
With everyone I know
Everywhere is going to lead somewhere
I went to school for art but left with discounted favors
Lord knows that I've tried
I'm moving mountains over and I'm making my mom proud
But if you don;t expect too much from me
I might not let you down
Everywhere I go
With everyone I know
Everywhere is going to lead somewhere
Even if you don't care

Everybody Loves a Party

If you're going to let me go why don't you let me know?
It's not too late
I sure wouldn't mind if I could see you tonight
Some things will just never grow in
If you plant the seeds I'll sow them
Don't make me wait or stand in line for a sight or a sign
Everybody loves a party
Nobody wants to spend the night on their own
Everybody loves a party
Nobody wants to spin the bottle alone
On their own
Always hanging on never knowing
If you're going to stray or show
It's not too late to let live or let die
I want to see you tonight
Some things are as white as snow is
A spoiled daughter, a frosted nose
Colors that never change its size
Or gets rid of the prize
Everybody loves a party
Nobody wants to spend the night on their own
Everybody loves a party
Nobody wants to spin the bottle alone
On their own
Operator could you give me the line
Cause I've been waiting like a shadow for light
Operator would you give me a sign
Please don't take too long
Everybody loves a party
Nobody wants to spend the night on their own
Everybody loves a party
Nobody wants to spend their time getting old
On their own
Spin the bottle alone
On their own

London metropole
All your weight in gold
Waking up then falling back to bed
All this wasted space
Cameras and suitcases
Maybe they think we're all going out of our heads
That's why I get lonely
London metropole
What's tripping inside your soul
You're living in the light of shade without a sound
As pretty as you outta be dumb
Cover my face with your kisses, misses
Get the story straight so it slips right through your teeth
That's why I get lonely
That's why I get lonely everyday
That's why I get lonely
It's been coming up roses for days
I don;t care if you tell me where you're coming from
But, where are you coming from?
I don't care if you tell me what you're running from
I won't push or shove
Won't sting or bite
That's why I get lonely
That's why I get lonely everyday
That's why I get lonely
We're up to our noses in shame

Beyond The Static
by Nick Piunti
supported by 7 fans who also own “Dirty Electric”
Nick Piunti's third album confirms the idiosyncratic talent of this musician who keeps churning out fantastic power-pop tunes that would rejoice even the most jaded pop-rock fan, whether young or old, if they knew about the existence of 'Beyond the Static'.
