silly cinomen | Yi

http://lifeofyi.bandcamp.com/track/silly-cinomen

Silly cinomen tells the story of an innocent girl who makes all the wrong decisions. Behind the backs of her father and the church she tries to use sex to buy love, and though it never works, she never learns. When we’re sleeping in our bed she creeps out from her daddy’s pocket. Tiny tip toes tap down stairs, into a stranger’s jacket. She wants to go to the pictures but oh no, no. no, no, no. They go up town to the look out where she does what she does best. Cinomen, you naughty girl.

ruby skies | Yi

http://lifeofyi.bandcamp.com/track/ruby-skies

There’s a rabbit playing in the field, digging holes. Just like a dog, he buries bones. Put a feather in your cap, my bed is no-one’s pedestal. Don’t be fooled, your walls have all gone gray. It’s time to meet, the boy behind the tail. There’s a rabbit playing in the field, he looks just like. Any other rabbit, in any other field. So run rabbit run, when the farmer comes he won’t be pleased with you. Run rabbit run, into ruby skies. There’s a rabbit playing in the field, having fun. Feeds for this album.

pretty little hands | Yi

http://lifeofyi.bandcamp.com/track/pretty-little-hands

Pretty little hands, so soft and so wonderful. Pale as snow, the paint stains right through them. See her hands, watch her dance. Over keys, see her hands oh-oh-oh-oh. The girls walk by with their pants legs rolled up. Their thighs are so obvious but it’s not enough. Because older boys need younger girls. So they feel confidence in themselves. And in what they’ll receive when they speak those fatal words words! Your smile does nothing for me, the freckles on your cheeks and the braces on your teeth.

schools of fish | Yi

http://lifeofyi.bandcamp.com/track/schools-of-fish

Turn off the air conditioning. Driving is cold enough as it is. Highway cars are just like schools of fish. I’m sitting by the telephone. Waiting for somebody to call me. But nobody’s home or the phone is unplugged at the wall- after all, after all. After all after all! But I don’t check, because I don’t care. I’d rather sit here and stare at the telephone. And run through a list of names who I think. Might help get me out if I fell in a hole. But the list slips my mind and I’m sailing alone. Find Yi at ...

To say im with you. Just forget anything I ever said. And ignore anything I ever did. And just tell me. What do I have to do to say I’m with you? Just forget if I ever mouthed your name. And ignore any smiles I smiled your way. And just tell me. What do I have to do To say I’m with you? What do I have to have to do, what do I have to say? What do I have to do, what is it going to take? Just give me the truth, What do I have to say? What do I have to do to say I’m with you? But just tell me,.

go to bed | Yi

It was released originally as a single/ demo and distributed both via sales and through an innovative ‘droplift’ program- involving secretly dropping the CD (bearing the 100% free stamp) into popular music stores for listeners to find and keep.

submarine man | Yi

http://lifeofyi.bandcamp.com/music

To say im with you. Submarine man is me; so in many respects the album is a collection of songs about ‘being me’. It creates an atmosphere in which the listener can be a part of things that have happened in my life and feel things as I have felt them. The unusual arrangement of instruments that I play in this record go hand in hand with the descriptive lyrics that paint images and help transport the audience to another place in their minds. Released October 10, 2008. Written, performed and recorded by Yi.

after everything | Yi

http://lifeofyi.bandcamp.com/track/after-everything

She tried to convince me, she didn’t need me anymore, no no no. She screamed things she said, threat by threat into my head. She said, I don’t know why I’m here anymore. Soon you’ll see me out of that door. But after everything she said she’d do,. She still loved me, I knew. Constantly she reminded me of why she would be leaving me. It seemed she aspired to make me sad and watch me cry. For all I knew all was fine, for long I knew that she would be mine. As far as I knew, all was fine.
