Salutations,
This single you are likely listening to was recorded in a cavernous basement on the very same board we recorded our first release Pasquale on in 2009. Except this time around, we had the tracks mixed by the great Adam Fair. We wanted to capture a no frills example of what can be accomplished on a small budget, real instruments, no computers and very few takes. We're a rock 'n' roll band. We believe in the simple power of song.
Sincerely,
Broken Bricks
Produced by Marlon Chaplin & Luke Kuplowsky
Written by Luke Kuplowsky
Recorded at the Zachary Underground 2012
Mixed by Adam Fair

lyrics
Fortune Out of You
(Luke Kuplowsky)
Left in soiled rags,
Dressed in dirty overalls,
Leather shoes without soles,
Feet as black as coal,
Eyes a shade of colour blue,
Here's whats killing you,
Gonna make a fortune out of you,
She was alone there,
The city came in for the catch,
She got a scratch dear,
Nearly broke the city bank,
Eyes a shade of colour blue,
Here's whats killing you,
Gonna make a fortune out of you,
Oh my baby it's just a premonition,
A little bit of sugar is just enough ammunition,
Lock up your doors and guard your cups and dishes,
She's a darling bitch who does as mister wishes,
Well back in the old days,
When she was hanging with the boys,
A slap in the wrist comes back like a shot with a fist,
Eyes a shade of colour blue,
Here's whats killing you,
Gonna make a fortune out of you.
