Scott Joel Gizicki - King Midas, What a Bastard

Foreword: Sometimes in life, well, I think you just need to write yourself your own win like I did with this song below during a more trying time of my past.



King Midas, What a Bastard


I bought a Cow

It said Moo

Move on over to me


Went to the market

Came back covered in fleas

At least I still get the milk for free


I got it just the way I want it to be, yea


Chicken crossed the road

To catch a bus down to Georgia

Sold his soul to the devil


Ain’t gonna take no time

To take get my eggs outta basket

Send it on a one way ticket to hell

Just don’t forget to pack the snow cones


I think I keep walkin’

On the sunny side of the street

Ain’t gonna rain on this parade


They put a monkey on a cake

For my very first birthday

Now you betta get off of my back


Cuz I got it

Oh yes I got it

I got it just the way I want to be, yea


Ain’t gonna take granted

Eve’ything that’s been handed to me

Gonna keep this silver spoon under my tongue

And Just like King Midas

Touch eve’ything it turn to gold

I got it just the way I want it to be, yea

Cuz I got it, oh yes, I got it

I got it just the way I want it to be, yea


They say its cheaper by the dozen so I grab myself 13

Good thing the baker and candlestick maker are my friends

When you learn to play with fire

You’re gonna find a moth that gets burned

Just like a chicken down in hell


Yes, I’m gonna play charades

Among the water and the flame

With a wink

I make a lion tame

Cuz I got it, yes I got it

Oh I got it, Yes I got it

You know you want it, Cuz I got it


Yes I got it, oh I got it

I got it just the way I want it be, yea


Scott Joel Gizicki is just another one of those new Los Angeles residents that acts and enjoys writing as well. After being born and raised in Detroit, he finally made it 3,000 miles to the city he's always wanted to live in this past August. He hopes he can stand out from the crowd; at least a little bit. :)

Scott Joel Gizicki - Don't Do Anything

Foreword:
Below are song lyrics that I wrote about two years ago. Even though the song's title alone screams anti-risk taking I think it really coincides. The upbeat jazz-like song itself illustrates an internal struggle of fighting against a want. Perhaps you could even say it is mind vs heart vs. another unmentionable part of the body. In the end, the voice of the song does nothing. Even though the voice ultimately made the right decision in hindsight; while actually in that moment doing nothing was still indeed a risk. I don't think a risk always needs to be some grand gesture or staring down the eyes of danger. Sometimes the risk comes in when deciding between your own heart, mind or well, you know.

Don't Do Anything

I see you standing there
Playing the part like you don't care
Stealing glances, don't catch my glare

I keep on keepin' cool
I end up actin' fool
So I don't do
Anything

Don't do anything
Don't do anything
Just dance, just groove, just feel the mood and I
Don't do anything
Don't do anything
Cuz a kiss won't seal the deal
It's too late I copped that feel

Like a dolphin dancin'
In the net I'm movin'
Fast, I'm beadin'
Beating the sweat

I just won't stop now, please
Head on my damn knees
Limb from limb is the
Sea I swim, but I

Don't do anything
Don't do anything
It's you I want, but I go for the other and I
Don't do anything
Don't do anything
Out the door with that fear
It's like headlights without the deer
So I don't do anything
Don't do

Stomp your hands and
Clap your feet and
Snap those elbows to the beat
Stomp your hands and
Clap your feet and
Snap those elbows to the beat
Watch those and
Avoid surprise and
Suppress, Depress, Impress, Intense

And

Don't do anything
Don't do anything
It's you I want, but I go for the other and I
Don't do anything
Don't do anything
Just dance, just groove, just feel the mood and
Don't do anything
Don't do anything
It's you I want, but I go for the other and I
Don't do anything
Don't do anything
Those baby blues cast a spell it's true
But you better watch out
Cuz there's nothing you can do
