A Song For My Kazoo

This is a song for my kazoo
But if you want you can listen to it too.
We've been together through the thick and thin
My kazoo will be there 'till the very end.
This is a song for my kazoo
Which is the most metal instrument in the world.
My kazoo keeps me out of harm's way
My kazoo is the source of my pay
It keeps me calm and it brings me joy
How dare you call it a toy.
This is a song for my kazoo
Which is the most metal instrument in the world.

There’s a man who lives in a wishing well
And he thinks that he is doing well
What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him.
He asks me to provoke his thoughts and gives me his hand
Tells me that he would like to see the land
But I don’t know if I want to show him.
Boy I wish I got to know him.
And it's a hard life to live
If you got so much to give
And you run out of your supply.
All I want to do
Is give everything to you
But I need to provide.
Woman, please, I can not stand to hear
If I do I’ll probably shed a tear
Leave me to my bedroom.
But I don’t dare to ever shun you away
I would never want to ever say
That which I know will hurt you.
I will always comfort you.
And it's a hard life to live
If you got so much to give
And you run out of your supply.
All I want to do
Is give everything to you
But I need to provide.
Leave a message at the tone:
I want to give you my home
I know you wouldn’t leave me alone
Please pick up the phone
And it's a hard life to live
If you got so much to give
And you run out of your supply.
All I want to do
Is give everything to you
But I need to provide.

Someplace upon the deserted Isle
There lived a man who tried to dial
A number he’d saved since he was seven
It was a number he thought about again and again.
And it went to heaven, if not the moon
Took a mouthful of sand if it wasn’t too soon
In the top of a tree he could feel the air
But he wasn’t the type of person who would ever care.
Never could tell apart if his left was right
Got his glass eye taken out when he had a fight
Depth perception overrated, couldn’t give congratulation
To the favorite person in the nation, he turned off this station.
And now you are standing before each other
Don’t want to try to hug your brother
Because you’d never met this man in your life
But he lived on the island and he never had a wife.
He was one lonely guy with nothing to do
But man he was laid back, so why aren’t you?
He never learned to count or to tie his shoe
But he was happy so why aren’t you?
Well yeah this guy he was pretty strange
When you met him you thought that he was deranged
But he wasn’t insane, more sane than you
Because he was honest, yeah, honest and true.
Where you lie to yourself, he would be his own friend
You think about it again and again
Leaving your room with your head in your hands
You will never understand.
So there you brother sits across from you
Shunned away, tried and true
All he wants is just for you two to talk
Catch up as you take a walk.
Down the beach, he would fill you in on his life
Tell you that he never needed a wife
Or anyone else, but now he wants you
Take a walk with your brother, it’s the best you can do.
He was one lonely guy with nothing to do
But man he was laid back, so why aren’t you?
He never learned to count or to tie his shoe
But he was happy so why aren’t you?
But now the time has come to catch your boat and ride away
Now the question is do you go or do you stay
You tell me and you will see
He was one lonely guy with nothing to do
But man he was laid back, so why aren’t you?
He never learned to count or to tie his shoe
But he was happy so why aren’t you?

All And Only Mine

I've got toilet paper rags sucking up all of my fears
I've got all the good and bad things you don't wanna hear
I've got my life ahead of me, yet I'm stuck in today
I've got friends the size of elephants but I like it that way
And it's time, and it's time
And your crime is only mine.
I've got typewriters scattered all over my place
I've got dishwashers all over my face
I've got no more mind and no rent to pay
I've got no desire to hear what you have to say
And it's time, and it's time
And your crime is only mine.
When this all comes to an end
Will you still be my friend
When I sleep and close my eyes
Will you still cry
I've got not fifteen cents to my name
I've got it all wrong when it's all the same
I've got no more lies and I'm supersized
I've got shrimp and chicken and I'm hypnotized
And it's time, and it's time
And your crime is only mine.

I was hearing your voice call
And I heard what it said
Saying nothing at all
Hurting me in the head.
You think I’m just a user
Nothing but a loser
Sticks and stones will break my bones, words will never hurt me
Everything you say only brings you closer to me.
My voice was getting rather horse
I have no doubt a get the bread
Your code was getting morse
The troubles are in my head.
You think I’m just a user
Nothing but a loser
Sticks and stones will break my bones, words will never hurt me
Everything you say only brings you closer to me.

Don't Forget The Gas
07:55

It’s about 9 0’clock
Sitting in a lawn chair
There’s a pile of crap
Just sitting over there.
Only one thing to do
Options next to none
I think we all know
What has to be done.
Light it all on fire
Don’t forget the gas
It will all burn quickly
It will all burn fast.
Bring the flame to the bottom
Watch it rise to the top
We are all out of water
How do we get it to stop?
Well now it’s 10:15
It’s getting kinda late
I can’t leave this unattended
So I have to sit and wait.
I think I lost an eyebrow
Now I’m standing too close
I’m starting to feel
Like a burnt piece of toast.
Light it all on fire
Don’t forget the gas
It will all burn quickly
It will all burn fast.
Bring the flame to the bottom
Watch it rise to the top
We are all out of water
How do we get it to stop?
We are all heavy eyed
But we leave satisfied
But tomorrow evening
We’ll probably do this all again.
Light it all on fire
Don’t forget the gas
It will all burn quickly
It will all burn fast.
Bring the flame to the bottom
Watch it rise to the top
We are all out of water
How do we get it to stop?

Don't Look To Me

Well it’s a high life living with you, girl,
When I see you walking around
I will see you all day
Just so I can say
You’re the best girl in the town.
Well it’s a grand day sitting with you, girl,
Next to you at that old park bench
We’re in the bad part of town
But the thing that I’ve found
Is that you can take the stench.
Pre-Chorus:
I don’t think it’s worth it
Where the heck is the beach
I would hold you close
If only I could reach.
Chorus:
You don’t look to me when I need you to
If I thought you were funny looking I would throw my shoes
I don’t look to you when I need you in my life
This is all so useless, we need to rid of this strife.
Well it’s a beautiful day in our world
But we still miss our friends
It’s sad and true
What can we do
When it all ends.
It won’t be a big old wedding
Just a night for the two
But I don’t care
I’m not scared
Of what you want to do.
Pre-Chorus:
I don’t think it’s worth it
Where the heck is the beach
I would hold you close
If only I could reach.
Chorus:
You don’t look to me when I need you to
If I thought you were funny looking I would throw my shoes
I don’t look to you when I need you in my life
This is all so useless, we need to rid of this strife.

Your screwed,
when she finds your box of letters she'll ask who you really love
A few,
Reasons why she wants to change you to a pigeon from a dove.
It's insane to feel this way
But the stain, it won't go away.
It's dire,
But the situation, well, it's never going to change
Live wire,
Your clothes are on fire and your turtle's making you feel shame
It's insane to feel this way
But the stain, it won't go away.
When you want to know
If your love will grow
Just don't show 'cause you know.
And then,
You cry when you want to fly and you just don't know why
And so,
Your moral isn't growing so all you wanna do is sigh
It's insane to feel this way
But the stain, it won't go away.

Why Are We?
03:08

The sun is with the star
We are near and far
Coming close to me
Going so we can see
Up the mountain so
So many strange things to go
I wish I was taught
Now I’m left asking what.
Chorus:
Why are we outside
Why are we inside
His fine is my fine
Why do we hide
It is not to dried
Okay I lied.
Take a walk on the beach
Feel the sand on your feet
Beat the heat with the sun
We will have some fun
Squint your eyes and know
There is nowhere to go
Take a breath or two
That's what you have to do
Chorus:
Why are we outside
Why are we inside
His fine is my fine
Why do we hide
It is not to dried
Okay I lied.

Are you lonely up in space?
Do you put on a happy face?
Are you scared?
Are you all on your own?
Do you miss your home?
Do you even care?
It must be hard to live for the man
Don't remember how to stand
Do you remember the plan?
Do not disappoint your fans.
Hey, what's it like back on Earth?
With friends and family and hearth?
Do you want to be up here?
I wish that you could hear me
Emptiness in all I see
I don't want to be up here
Oh yes, it's hard to live for the man
I don't remember how to stand
I don't remember the plan
I think I'll disappoint my-
Fans pointed at me, it must be a thousand degrees
My suit starts locking up, my joints start to freeze
We're in orbit, can't control it.
Oh yes, it's hard to live for the man
I don't remember how to stand
I don't remember the plan
I'm gonna disappoint my fans.

Live For The Lullaby

The rainman is coming down the stairs
The rainman is nothing but fair
As you watch the raindrop
You think it will never stop
Chorus:
We’ll go hand in hand
To lullaby land
Put your toes in the sand
And we’ll do it again.
The sky is falling down
The sky won’t make a sound
But you are in all the rain
Spin it all back once again.
Chorus:
We’ll go hand in hand
To lullaby land
Put your toes in the sand
And we’ll do it again.

Talking Kote Maine
Hello! I am Talking Kote. Well, sometimes I have a little help from others, but overall I am Talking Kote. I enjoy listening to Rock and Folk mainly, but there are many other genres I am influenced by, as I'm sure you can tell. But I will say this now: I'm not only a comedy/weird artist. I can do serious stuff too... sometimes. ... more
