JoMercerOnAir Tasting Colours. I love it that a local small-town Berks County Pennsylvania punk-folk band spells "colors" the British way. That small gesture speaks to their style. Favorite track: Drew's Song.

Everybody wants you to grow up But no one expects you to. I talk to myself when I'm lonely I already thought you knew. Stereotypes around every corner (and every corner) don't place us in any order. What happened to the days when we would take our own risks? Take our own risks, take our own risks. What happened to the days when we would take our own risks? Take our own risks, take our own risks. What happened to the days when we would take our own risks? Take our own risks, take our own risks. What happened to the days when we would take our own risks? Take our own risks, take our own risks.

Rad Dads 03:04
(get frustrated, that's the one thing you don't want to do) You were sitting out on the porch, on your sway; a big fat cigar in your mouth, and a life passing away. The twitch of your hand and the flicker in your eyes, is telling me the master plan of what it is to be man. You're my dad, and you're everybody's dad. You are the dad they wish they had, you are the dad I'm glad I have. And you're my buddy, and I'm gonna miss you when you're gone, so here's one for the road: please come safely back home to us. Staying out late and waking up early, to get some money for your family. You brought us coffee when I was hanging at you house, and there's no doubt in my mind that your beard is the coolest thing about- You're my dad, and you're everybody's dad. You are the dad they wish they had, you are the dad I'm glad I have. And you're my buddy, and I'm gonna miss you when you're gone, so here's one for the road: please come safely back home to us. My dad wears khakis. My dad wears scrubs. My dad's hair is long. My dad's long enough. My dad wears glasses. Mine does too. My dad wears sneakers. And mine wears dress shoes. My dad's name is Kevin. Mine is too. My dad's name is Kevin. Yes that's true. Our dad's names are Kevin Our dad's names are Kevin EVERYBODY IS KEVIN! And they are our dad's, they're the dads they wish they had, they are the dads we're glad we have. They are the dads we're glad we have. And they are our buddies, and we're gonna miss them when they're gone, so here's one for the road: We'll come safely back home to you.

I miss simplicity when the electricity would go out, Making movies with our camera rather than sitting on the couch. I miss the weekend, staying out late and up all night, Sitting down and crowded around underneath the full moonlight. These are the days that we won't soon forget, All the stories that we tell will be the ones we won't regret. There was gasoline to burn the things we collect, There was no need for the tent because we never even slept! Forget tranquility, when your parents would go out Leaving pictures made with spray paint all over your town. Forget civility, breaking bottles by street light, Hanging down, slumming around, and looking for a fight. A these are the days that we won't soon forget, All the stories that we tell will be the ones we won't regret. There was gasoline to burn the things we collect, There was no need for the tent because we never even slept!

I just wanna climb the highest tree to the peak and stay there, for I don't care much for the ground you stand on. It's not that I'm unworthy, it's that I couldn't care much less. I wont crack a smile until it's laid to rest. It's not that I'm ungrateful, you could have done much less, but I can't get this achy feeling off my chest, off my chest. I find it problematic that it's lonely in these leaves. But I won't come back down, 'cause I don't want to see - I don't want to see you. Don't want to see you. It's not that I'm unworthy, it's that I couldn't care much less. I wont crack a smile until it's laid to rest. It's not that I'm ungrateful, you could have done much less, but I can't get this achy feeling off my chest, off my chest. I find it problematic that it's lonely in these leaves.

Drew's Song 03:09
It's been so long since I last saw your face, When we went to the park and yelled at old people and trains. And that was so fun so why did you leave? Won't you please come on hurry up and come back to me. And I'm gonna miss you when you leave and I'm home, It's gonna suck when I'm stuck here all alone Laying in my bed, And wishing I were dead (I WANNA DIE) It's been like three years so where are you now, I've been waiting and counting the shingles on my house. All of the bored games I play will suffice, Because do not want this the rest of my life And I'm gonna miss you when you leave and I'm home, And It's gonna suck when I'm stuck here all alone Laying in my bed Wishing I was dead I got so sick, I got so worked over this I got so sick, I got so worked over this I got so sick, I got so worked over this I got so sick, I got so worked over this And I'm gonna miss you when you leave and I'm home, And It's gonna suck when I'm stuck here all alone (2, 3, 4!) And I'm gonna miss you when you leave and I'm home, And It's gonna suck when I'm stuck here all alone. Laying in my bed, Wishing I was dead And I'm gonna miss you when you leave and I'm home, And It's gonna suck when I'm stuck here all alone Laying in my bed, And wishing you were too Drew.
