SONG #6: Jelly Donut
Written/Recorded/Mixed January 8, 2024
Mix finalized January 9
Feeling the yearning motor is turning
Merryll picks up the blade
Finding solutions in high revolutions
Cutting against the grain
Sometimes we heal by breaking
And we grow by shaving
Leaving the waste behind
We make it home by escaping
Smoother by scraping away the splinters of time
Jelly donut spinning fast
It’s a masterclass in wood and glass
Jelly donut on display
Its no longer just a gentleman’s game
Gentleman’s game
Smithsonian calling the ceiling is falling
Shattering on the floor
You used to write to museums now you can see ‘em
Lining up at your door
Feels like only a month ago
That you were paying the rent on tables and bowls
Jelly donut spinning fast
It’s a masterclass in wood and glass
Jelly donut on display
Its no longer just a gentleman’s game
Gentleman’s game
Who cares about those newsletters
They don’t speak for you anyway
It was just a matter of time
Before they all knew your name
Jelly donut spinning fast
It’s a masterclass in wood and glass
Jelly donut on display
Its no longer just a gentleman’s game
Jelly donut spinning fast
It’s a masterclass in making it last
Jelly donut on display
Its no longer just a gentleman’s game
Gentleman’s game

Sometimes you gotta just let the people have it.
