lyrics

Harder than a coffin nail
Rougher than a sanding post
He doesn't speak unless he's spoken to
But I wouldn't suggest it to most

He mixes rash decisions
With another shot of rye
Gravel in his guts and dirt in his eyes
Bourbon soaked moon in the bloodshot sky

His favorite game was cut throat
But he never learned how to play cards
He wasn't much of a gamblin man
But you could bet on him against the odds

He walks a path of hot coal
Sleepin on a bed of nails
And they say that he could never be found
But chances are that he's ridin the rails

Bourbon soaked moon in the bloodshot sky

Better off keeping your distance
Try not to look him straight in the eye
He had a scare from his ear to his chin
But no one ever dared ask him why

He is a man of few words
And you'd be lucky if they never were heard
He always left with his ear to the ground
Weans out the weak as he follows the herd

Bourbon soaked moon in the bloodshot sky

It's the smell in the air, the taste in your mouth, and the chill down your spine. The menacing soundtrack to your own form of debauchery. Deeply rooted in the industrial wasteland of Sydney, NS, emerged from the tar ponds: The Electric Grub. This revolving door of musicians resembles a dysfunctional family circus that comes from the twisted imaginations of Travis Morrison and Chuck Knott. ... more
