Also known as Escape and initially titled chaser, it’s more about a jailbreak than running away from zombies. Panda Sanchez and members of Gracias, Pero No Gracias (combining forces under the Frankenstein monkier Sir Cophagus) will be playing it in a line-up of spooky/scary/dancey joints on Saturday, October 27 at Olive Lounge. Costume contest. Dancing. Tunes.

Animals
by Panda Sanchez
Lyrics by Tayne Kim, 2011
Animals are all around us
I’m a snail and she’s a flounder
All of us are swimming in the sea
Urchins, whales and Loch Ness monsters
Are marching in a line behind us
We’re all going to that city in the sea
Before the mountains in her mind
See the salty ocean in her eyes
To a place where only owls fly
Hear their lonesome lullabies
They go Oo-ooh, oo-ooh
It was a lonely, lonely, lonely world x2

It’s a current Panda Sanchez project and will be the final song to end our set at Velvet Lounge in July. It’s also the name of a 1978 animated short co-directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. The beginning reminds me of running away from zombies in a dream.

Lyrics by Richard Sanchez and Tayne Kim, 2012
Took me to your room, dear, with the muses and pictures on your wall.
You left a clue on a scribbled note in a dusty bureau.
I want to know you, I want to get to know you.
We learn to waltz dear, by the grace of god as we hold each other up
We’ve gone so far now, past the icecream truck, beyond the autumn rust.
I’m cleaning up your windmills. I’m cleaning up your windmills, baby.
You’re so uptight. Believe me when you say you are. I’m a fool for you.
You’re so in love. Believe me when I say you are. (x2)
Check out the song on bandcamp.

The Occam’s Razor Song (working title)
by Panda Sanchez
Lyrics by Tayne Kim, 2003/2012
Little thoughts they
Dance across the night to bleed me
Occam’s razor come
Your neon faith’s been saved from
All the fossil fumes we baked-on
The bridge between the hills of snow
Blows up our membranes slowly
Digesting all obstructions
Revives the waking corpse
She laughs and says to you
…
O, nomine patri i ire / i non timere
O, ego volabant, dea matrona
Red regrets fall
From a broken bathtub singing
Songs of my demise
Raspy cadillacs crawl
Down a dusty road and back from
Someone’s house in south Ocal
We’ll steal the liquorish factory sod
And taking dirty mouths for god’s
Feed our innocent delights
Lights we found before in a bar.
…
Run away my little girl, Baltimore may find you by the morning.

This is the first song I wrote in 2011. Seems fitting for Valentine’s.
Mirage
by Panda Sanchez
Lyrics by Tayne Kim, 2011
I couldn’t figure out your code
Didn’t know which way to go
So I walked around inside these garden
Walls in-between us made of glass
And regrets we never had
Become evident when our eyes reopen
This is the afterlife we’re left with
Caught in the memory of these bars
All of our pretty affectations
Turn into monsters in the dark
Castles of clay, they’ve been abandoned
But you don’t know why, and you don’t know how
Hallways we used to build our dreams in
They’re empty now and you don’t know how.

Morning Commuter Song
By Panda Sanchez
Lyrics by Tayne Kim, 2011
Don’t mind the morning people, my darling
Different stations but they only wear one face
Staring blankly at the walls behind you like you’re nothing
Or lick their lips like you’ve been sitting on their dinner plate
I know it takes a lot of strength to bear it
It takes some more to take a breath before a bullet train
Hope your coat is warm enough
To sheild you from the wind and such
Your headphones won’t come off until you
Shake that worn kaleidoscopic binge
Now everyone is angry, dear, but fuck ’em
Bleeding red from their eyes instead of tears
Sympathy and her sisters are gone
Been dropped into a coffee cup earlier on in the morning
Get out of my morning commuter song

Clarity Jones Konig
by Panda Sanchez
Lyrics by Richard Sanchez, 2011
Give the monsters a name
Before you broach the closet
With your Daughter
In your arms
Be sure to cut off the rain
As though you turned the spigot
Or the faucet
In her brain
Behold the raging queen
That you left behind
Tear out your eyes
Tear out your mind
Blind to the love (3x)
Love in your lies
Behold the raging queen
That you left behind
Like a broken jewel
In a fractured crown
Follow the TV set
To your living room
As you draw the shades
And you close your eyes, Ohh
Is she still standing there?
Well I dunno
Is she no longer sad?
Well I dunno
As though her song played in the afterlife.
As though your heart beat in the very gums
Or the very drums in her mouth (repeat/outro)
Check out Clarity Jones Konig (Retro Version) on bandcamp.
