TimTTT This is an example of the random deals you can find on bandcamp. Some of the songs are still rough, but there's a few really good tracks on here for a $1. Favorite track: Martha's Trip to Town.

Sit and watch the rain on the window Looks like it goes right out to sea It's not as if there's anywhere to go Ain't no place that I gotta be Sometimes I pretend I'm an artist To excuse the state of my sleeves Sounds better when they ask me at parties What you do not what you believe It's not that I'll never be anyone It's just that I've never been anyone But hey, it's like they say, we are still young So kid, what'll it be? Sit and watch the travelers come and go Playing catch with places they been Maybe one of them's got an hour or so but it's Better not to ask what it means Sometimes I pretend I'm a meteor Burning out my course in the sky But don't think about it as much anymore Just a catch in the corner of my eye It's not that I'll never be anyone it's just that I've never been anyone But hey, it's like they say, we are still young Kid, what'll it be? One day I'll just go and tell you so and I'll know everything I hope I'm not too slow coz if I don't I won't have anything to show for all this time in limbo waiting for the rocks I throw to hit something to notice me to know I won't grow up already old Sit and call my friends on the telephone Everybody's busy today Coz everyone's got stuff of their own to do and they're Busy moving up and away Sometimes I pretend I'm a billionaire And think of all the places I'd go And all the people I'd never talk to And all the times I'd just stay at home It's not that I'll never be anyone it's just that I've never been anyone But hey, it's like they say we are still young Kid, what'll it be? Okay I'll just go and tell you so and I'll know everything I know I'm not too slow coz if I don't I won't have anything to show for all this time in limbo waiting for the rocks I throw to hit something to notice me to know I won't grow up already old Maybe I'll just go and tell you so and I'll know everything I know I'm not too slow coz if I don't I won't have anything to show for all this time in limbo waiting for the rocks I throw to hit something to notice me to know I won't grow up already old Sit and watch the rain on the window Looks like it goes right out to sea It's not as if there's anywhere to go Kid, what'll it be?

TRAVELLER Verse 1 Timeless mystery Beyond the stars The space where your dreams Remain unscarred Chorus And if you listen They will guide you home Silently bidding Calling you to come Verse 2 Twilight calls to you Follow the lights Road to destiny Deep in your heart Chorus Bridge A traveller lost Empty darkness Find your destiny The path leads to dreams Chorus Instrumental Break Chorus

Rage Against The Suit (pt 1 of 3402) Vacant face and dead inside These people live on packs of lies Irrelevant to the awakened masses Forced on us by the Corporate classes Wear a suit wear a suit Now turn around and run Wear a suit wear a suit These people say you're done Vacant face and dead inside These people live on packs of lies Irrelevant to the awakened masses Forced on us by the Corporate classes Charge em all charge em all We're not sure what they bought Charge em all charge em all This faker won't get caught Vacant face and dead inside These people live on packs of lies Irrelevant to the awakened masses Forced on us by the Corporate classes Strategy smatergy He's a gibbering fish Strategy smatergy I think he's taking the piss

Martha took a bus downtown To see a movie show But what she’d see up on the stage Her pristine mind would blow What she thought to be the Bijou Was the Gayety instead The antics that she saw on stage Made a big mess of her head First there were a couple men Dressed in funny clothes The language of their stories Was quite dreadful, Heaven knows Then the band began to play With a heavy bass drum beat A woman came on stage to dance With an outfit incomplete She pranced around the stage And all her clothes began to fly Poor Martha’d never ever had Such an eyeful in her eye The dancer's eye's were looking down Directly Martha's way Poor Martha used her hands to block Her vision of the stage The dancer made her body parts Gyrate side to side Tassels going round and round Martha had to get outside Now Martha never said a word About her afternoon The women’s Sunday class at church Oh, surely they would swoon

Young 05:05
Yesterday, when I was so young I liked the music that no one sung Loud and angry with notes that always clashed With so-so drummers whose loud cymbals crashed Life seemed so unfair and I wasn't very happy Things did not go well for me Very few people could even be called my friend I was just waiting for each phase of my life to end Yesterday while I was young Then in walked you, and the sun began to shine But I had nothing, couldn’t even raise a dime I couldn't see a way or even imagine how That my life could change, and I could be happy now Yesterday when I was young Then you took me in, with your warm embrace All the darkness gone, now it was just your lovely face So full of of beauty and a smile that's oh so fair The clouds have gone away, and my world has new fresh air And once again, I feel so young

None yet... The title is just arbitrary, because it's the middle of winter and I see icicles outside. I don't like winter... ;-)

"Emotional Taxidermy" The look on your face expresses things I have felt before I feel a connection to you, that I can't ignore Chorus: You look like you feel so free You look like you feel just like me But now I know that what I see Is emotional taxidermy You had a feeling, you had it once You had it killed You had it stuffed Frozen in a lifelike pose You keep it handy You keep it close

This is not a dream, it's over My heart is no longer in play. Not gonna be your part time lover, No, I'm just not made that way. This is not a dream la, la, la, la, la, la la la, la, la, la Wish I knew this from the start, I was there just playing a part in your story, where you were the star, Too many bit parts. Chorus Too much of our time felt staged, Your exits seemed so prearranged In the wings, a cast of leading men, waiting backstage. Chorus Tonight, we're at Shakespeare in the Park Midsummer's where I'll make my mark In this drama where the star sees the light, Wakes from her slumber. Chorus

Living in the land of 24/7 Being lit up like Vegas isn’t my idea of heaven Sleep deprivation is torture, sensory barrage a way to pick on us I’m not anti-enlightenment, but come on, this is ridiculous Let There Be Dark Let There Be Dark Why is solitude misconstrued as loneliness? Why is busy-ness brandished as a badge of success? Is it technology, economy, or something hyper-puritanical That’s skeptical of idleness and taking a sabbatical Let There Be Dark Let There Be Dark Bridge: 69+It’s not a fanatical vision to step into the void and listen All the world’s a stage, but man, I need an intermission Come on, surrender, you can be free There’s no tunnel vision when you can’t see There's a whole lot of nothing for you to embrace Taking the time and exploring the space Let There Be Dark

about

ZeCoop Kalamazoo, Michigan

I love playing music and keep learning new instruments. My songs are in a wide range of styles, from indie-rock to surf, to folk to rock to electronic... I never know. I record at home in a studio I put together in a spare room. I work (via the web) with a lot of vocal/lyric collaborators from all over the world.
