The Blue Aardvark

1.
Banyan Bay 03:22
Under the shade of a spreading Banyan tree Back on Banyan Bay -where I long to be
2.
I'm a crazy wee lazy wee spaceman from Pluto Been sent down from space in a skin tight space-suito
3.
Yo Ho Ho 03:25
Yo Ho Ho to the bottle I go To ease my heart and drown my woe Tee hee hee in a whiskey sea I love you but do you love me?
4.
none
5.
This is the Smiley Happy Song And when you hear it you want to sing along This is the smiley happy song, A bit of goo kiss It goes like this
6.
So long Suzy, so long Suzy Wong I'll be sleeping with my wife from now on If things don't change too much or if they stay the same In the dusty haunts of Wan Chai, I'll see you on the game
7.
Esmerelda 08:31
And though fond memories remain Of hunting truffles in the rain Though it is written in the sky Your kind for sausage meat must die Believe me darling Esmeralda in heaven I'll see you once again
8.
In Limbo 04:33
The last bird called out This day is dying And crystal clear came the song I did not light the lamps tonight I sat in silence more to hear The rain fall on my empty street Stroll past my dear, stroll past On alone
9.
10.
You are like Blooming Flowers in My soul space and I am drawn like bees into the center You are the sunshine of the night time Gloria And I am drawn like moths unto the light.
11.
And in which space does your soul dwell? So you drown at night and hear the bells? How can I tell if you won't wave or scream?
12.
The Worm 03:19
The worm is born and starts to cry On a day of the week that ends in Y The dragonflies and damsel flies All float around in the clear blue skies These days of the week oh how they fly New life pours fourth from you and starts to cry.
13.
I fall under your sweet, sweet charms and I fall into your open arms We'll make little babies on our farm And we'll push them around in our home made prams And love them till the day we die.
14.

First Breath 05:42

about

I recorded this the year before Hong Kong was handed back to the Chinese...in Hong Kong. It was recorded and mixed by Richard Preston who immediately after the recording left the country. I can't say I blame him.

Going backwards. At Dan the Bastard studio I have just completed the recording of Lamma Daze -12 tracks where folk, country and psychedelia describe my version of strange South China Sea Island.
Also I will upload some songs I recorded years ago. The collection is called The Blue Aardvark.
Someday, all my bizarrer works will be unearthed
