lyrics

YO MAMA // Your mama don't live here - I live here myself - If you look at me and see your mama, well I suggest you that look somewhere else // whoa-o0 / Learned it as a child, pile it on - never askin why, just smile along, I thought that if I tried - I tried so long - I could get it right, but right for who? for you no more - I'm the one keeping score / And it's going through my mind like every single time - wish I could hit the stop and then the rewind - I find myself reacting in the same old ways, it's not the kinda way I wanna spend my days - no more of these same old role plays // CHORUS // whoa-o0 / I cannot fill these expectations, I'm facin frustration - to prove myself to you, well there's too much complication - I start to come unglued, to the exit I'm racin, it's time for me to choose - and when I play that game I lose, I will not wear the shoes - of a perfect little lady who'll serve and perform, sacrifice myself, no I will not wear that unifiorm - I've tried it's too tight it, I do not like it so I've had it removed - I'm sick and tired of tryin to prove I can do what you do / Your mama don't live here - she has moved out - if you look at me and see your mama, well I suggest that you look somewhere else / whoa-o0 / I been blinded by projection, confused by my reflection - I'm searching for perfection, I'm tryin to find my way through all this blame / And I just gotta say that I know you weren't there at the start, but in this game you still play your part, let's take these rules and tear them apart, at the heart it's still the same - no more games / My mama don't live here - I live here myself, I gotta do and choose what I wanna - cause it's my life and no one else / whoa-o0

Romanteek Olympia, Washington

From the Northwest earth of Olympia, a two-million year old artesian well flows and quenches the thirst of the modern people. Channeling this ancient water the timeless voice of Greta Jane pours through the sound of Romanteek, which varies from haunting psychedelic rock to playful sugar pop, with a steady current of deep sultry groove. ... more
