lyrics

UNDER THE TABLE
-----------------------

I'm under the table
Dealing with failure
Without any favors
I'll deal with my labor

I'm mentally stable
That's a serious fable
I'll follow the traitor
And then deal with it later

I've got the fever
Paralyzed and eager
I don't believe her
I feel beneath her

And under the Devil's tongue
Is where I'll lose myself
And into the classroom skies
I'll burn and die

Ah, how many days
And ah, god I gotta be saved from her
Ah, I gotta be saved today

She's a colorblind painter
Does that make her a failure
With only one favor
Please come and save her
Secure and unable
I'm not the traitor
Won't see you later

And under the Devil's tongue
Is where I'll lose myself
And into the classroom skies
I'll burn and die

Ah, how many days
And oh god, I gotta be saved from her

Standing on the roads enticed
Patches on his head for eyes
It's where, where he goes to fly
He's just father in disguise
He wants to sit in for my life

And under the Devil's tongue
Is where I'll lose myself
And into the classroom skies
I'll burn and die

It's where I go to fly

about

Ondine Seattle, Washington

Ondine was my favorite 90s-era Seattle band that *almost* hit it big.

Ondine was: Luca Sacchetti (Vocals), Erik Castro (Guitar), Ray Zozaya (Bass), Jamil Hai and Mark Yeend (Drums).

Luca and Erik were kind enough to allow me to curate and host these albums for free download.

You had to see them live to really "get it", but it's great to make this music available after so long. Enjoy! ... more
