CAN'T FIND THE TV GUIDE LYRICS I'm awake at 6 - TV comes on Hormone cologne from one step beyond Baritone microphone over a throne arranging a loan in the twilight zone Where did it go I know it can't hide haven't been anywhere I didn't take it outside I've wasted my life I looked far and wide I can't find the TV Guide... Climbed out of bed and stumble to pee two rooms away I can hear the TV Holy sea embassy casualty Papacy secrecy pregnancy Where did it go I know it can't hide haven't been anywhere I didn't take it outside I've wasted my life I looked far and wide I can't find the TV Guide I can't find the TV Guide no - no-o I'm out of the shower and dressing for work Beautiful transform I look like a jerk TV Pentecostal intercourse Bugs Bunny religion is reinforced Where did it go I know it can't hide haven't been anywhere I didn't take it outside I've wasted my life I looked far and wide I can't find the TV Guide I can't find the TV no-no I can't find the TV Guide No no-o no no-o Can't find the TV guide.......

Donut Man 03:13
DONUT MAN LYRICS On the corner of 5th and Main By an old riverbed and a railroad train There's a shop near the track The owner works in the back He's got a hole in his shirt, a hole in his shoe He walks around without a whole lot to do Got no car, he's got no clothes He do what he does, that's all he knows He's a donut man He's doing what he can He's happy every day, he's got nothing to lose He's found his way He's a donut man Doing everything he can He's happy every day, he's got nothing to lose He's found his way For at least ten years and a day He's been going out of his way To give what he's got The Lord sees he gives a lot When the folk lay their money down For this he gives up all of his time His face a beautiful smile He's giving out all the while He's a donut man... Ahh-ahh Ahh-ahh Ahh-ahh Then the children grew up, he grew old His hands got shaky, and the shop got sold Now many a lives the story's been told There's nothing left but a donut hole He's a donut man He's doing what he can He's happy every day, he's got nothing to lose He's found his way He's a donut man Doing everything he can He's happy every day, he's got nothing to lose He's found his way He, he's a donut man Doing everything the best he can A donut man

IN THIS CROSSROAD LYRICS In this crossroad There’s not even a sign Darkness madness Lonely and lost one more time And I will find a way And I will find the day I will run away From this sorrow, sorrow Tears and poisons Distant perfumes and arms In slow motion Red hearts flashing apart And I will find a way And I will find the day And I will run away From this sorrow, sorrow Walking and sliding tumbling and falling Attempting walking on my feet again Pushing and fight jumping and shove But I won’t give up till the very last end The very last end… and then, who knows? And I will find a way And I will find the day I will run away I’m gonna run run run away From this sorrow Too much madness In these eyes of mine Tears won’t come out Trouble locked in my heart And I will find a way And I will find the day I will run away And I will find a way And I will find the day I will run away And I will find a way And I will find the day I will run away From this sorrow, sorrow

about

The Oznerol Era is a collection of songs from three separate events in my life.

First up are songs from the Oznerol E.P. which was released in 1985 on the ‘Made in Space’ label. It was well received by US College radio, which was quite a thrill.

The second batch which are most of the songs contained here are from a rehearsal/recording which occurred in 1989, with Robert Lansing (aka Enoch Hain) on guitar and Jerry Angel on drums. They were going to be part of an Oznerol follow up release that never happened.

And third is, ’She Likes it!’, a song demoed on my own on the trusty-crusty 4 track Tascam cassette deck, at my place in El Sereno in 1991.

I had actually forgotten about these gems and if it were not for Renee at NocturnalSol for nudging me all of these years to put them out, it wouldn’t have happened.

It is music to be in the mood for so... whenever you feel like letting your hair down or rebelling, this will help you get there

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating it.

Stay away from UFO’s…..Good health and See ya soon… LorenzOznerol


==================================================

Special thanks to:

Jerry Angel for a tutorial on how to stay out of the way and shine simultaneously.

Enoch Hain R.I.P. for his willingness in wanting to join in musically, whenever, wherever… A pregnant sound of gift, still sharing!

John X for doing an amazing job with a handful of mics, a 4 track Tascam 244 cassette recorder in a small rehearsal space… for crying out loud… how does he do it?

Sharal Churchill R.I.P. for her input and encouragement during that time.

“Warm Giraffe” for her patience, understanding and loving support also at that time.

“Guido” for endlessly gnawing on mic cables and many other unexpected special fx collaborations.

Kedron Parker for telling me what to do.

My boys, Ateo, Nico and Lorenzo for “essence and being”.

And finally thank you Reneè Travis and Heyday Media Group for believing it this whole time and for the courage to embark on the rocky road of hard work ahead.

Melody and Harmony,

Oznerol
