I was walking alone in a park no one else around, I could sing aloud favourite song with the echoing sky the night was cold and dark There's little girl coming my way eyes to the ground, hands hanging down she answered to me by her sad melody the night was cold and dark Hey! What is it with you? Are all the kids laughing at you? Going home straight from the school? Under your cloth where's safe and warm Going home straigth from the school? Just because mind is blue I was thinking of going to sleep under my cloth where is safe and warm but in seeing pretty dreams I'd lie to myself 'cause I know that night is dark Hey! What is it with you? Hey! What is it with you? are all the kids laughing at you? Going home straight from the school? Under your cloth where's safe and warm. Going home straigth from the school? Going home straigth from the school Going home straigth from the school Going home straigth from the school Just because mind is blue

I woke up tonight, turned my radio off and got bit confused when the sound came out there was this man with a high pitched voice telling about the law that the government had made oh no... the world is upside down I just couldn't believe it so I switch off my TV the voice repeated the news in channel ZWV and the people in the buss were smiling bright and talking to the one who was sitting beside about the great news and everything else the conversation ended when the buss driver said goodbye... and do come back again Save this planet by driving SUV make the air clean and easy to breathe the sun shines purple and the grass is red everything looks funny now when the world is reversed The city outside is full of life buzzing in the streets during day and night the sun shines purple and the grass is red everything looks funny now when the world is reversed oh no... the world is upside down It went a while and everything was fine for the very first time I enjoyed my life but soon after that the government decided that we're gonna turn this back again 'cause money, money, money, money, we need more I don't even know who we did this for well I need a brand new jet and a car I wan't russian caviar and cuban cigars let us just vote and reverse this law they all shouted in the congress hall oh no... they turned it back again Destroy this planet by driving SUV make the air thick and hard to breathe the sun doesn't shine and the grass is dead everything looked when the world was reversed || x3 The city outside has lost its fight the streets are silent during day and night the sun doesn't shine and the grass is dead everything looked when the world was reversed oh no... oh no... oh no... oh no... they turned it back again

Baby Fever 02:47
Please my baby don't you cry I don't got the tools to calm you down your mother took the hammer and the saw and the drill so please don't cry or I give you the pill Please my baby don't you cry I don't got the tools to calm you down I have read the books about children care but they won't help, I don't know what you need Please grow up and learn to talk 'cause I have a word to you There are some things that you need to learn so stop acting like a fool Now all you can do is looking cute but that won't get you too far Everyone smiles when you start to laugh but that won't work on me Please my baby don't you cry everyone loves you just the way you are but when you grow up don't end like your mom ugly and cranky with her life on rum Please grow up and learn to talk 'cause I have a word to you There are some things that you need to learn so stop acting like a fool You might not end up in modeling industry If we take a look at your sisters So educate yourself but remember to live And you will have it all

My friend Janet last name Garret lost her self-respect It was seen in christmas party on the ballroom floor but when I checked for it it just was not there Janet lost her self-respect and now she's all regret I went to staff if they had seen it after that night they said "no" and continued that it is not here "We've looked every bottle and the glasses too" Janet lost her self-respect and now she's all regret I bought the paper from the market and then it came to me I opened section lost & found and browsed it carefully Page full of announcements of new-found self-respects Which of them belongs to Janet I have to find it out I made few calls and found the right one and gave it back to her she swore to me with fingers crossed she'll never lose it again But then on the new-years-eve she had to go to bar so Janet lost her self-respect and now she's all regret

Ordinary Guy 02:28
You are like the Mexican gold vine that is hundred years old Italian white marble a clock from Switzerland French cuisine with waiter's french kiss the finest meal with caviar and drinks but I am just an ordinary guy living through my ordinary life eating in the front of TV watching lights in fridge everything I do I do alone everything I do I do alone There's South-African diamond in my hand I hold like it means the world to me but it is just a rock and you are the Alps but I will never get to hold you and you don't want to be held by me 'cause I am just an ordinary guy living through my ordinary life eating in the front of TV watching porn at night everything I do I do alone everything I do I do alone I cry alone, I laugh alone, I talk alone, I fuck alone. everything I do I do alone. 'cause I am just a sad young guy

Sugar & Milk 03:46
I drink my coffee with sugar and milk because I have no-one else but I'm enjoying my time It's Sunday morning, eight o'clock I read the paper to spoil the day "the economy is going down" And "woman was raped yesterday in a crowded marketplace and no-one ever saw a thing" I think it's absurd to call them "news" 'cause it's all been written million times before and look what an unnecessary waste when they're telling their stories with copy and paste It's an old song playing on repeat I ran out of sugar and milk so I ran to buy some more without them I won't survive I try to avoid tabloids, headlines, their little lies you never know what is the truth I think it's absurd to call them "news" 'cause it's all been written million times before and look what an unnecessary waste when they're telling their stories with copy and paste It's an old song playing on repeat I think it's absurd to call them "news" 'cause it's all been written million times before and look what an unnecessary waste when they're telling their stories with copy and paste It's an old song playing on repeat And I can imagine how they joke: "we are used to turn body-count to bank-account " and here's new slogan for the press "you hit your baby and we'll do the rest!" It's an old song witch no-one seems to know And when I come back from the town I open the door and untie my shoes I'll take a second to look around there's no one home, I'm alone that's okay, I got sugar and milk

I can give you everything just say what you want Sun and the moon will come over you Make a list and I fulfill your dreams big fancy sport-cars are in your backyard Lottery ticket and million euros will make a smile on your perfect little face but there's a thing that's forbidden of you You can never have it no matter how hard you try Love is the only thing that you can never have You're so cold you can live with that fact Who needs love when there's plenty of cash sink made of gold and a huge diamond stone marble from abroad and a Jet-plane in garage If you find a reason to live think what you can do and forget what you lose Love is the only thing that you can never have

Idiot 03:30
I have a mole in my face it changes its place now people notice me I'm not invisible 'cause I have a mole which changes it's place When I walk beside handsome guys the girls look at me I used to be transparent and insignificant but now they all are jealous of me I'm enjoying of my life this thing has turned everything right when I look myself from the mirror by the light I wish my mole goodnight I used to have a voice of a mouse but now I'm a giant when my mole starts moving people will stop talking and my voice is heard across the world and my mole moves like this... I'm enjoying of my life this thing has turned everything right when I look myself from the mirror by the light I wish my mole goodnight There are type of guys who try to get the girls they sing and play guitar they are making love songs sobby and quite touchy but I don't really care 'cause my mole grows hair

Pain 00:46
I was pondering alone struggling in this pain Who could help me out from this: I forgot my name! I went to Jane to look for help if she could recall my name Jane couldn't help but gave an advice "Go and see the rain" I went out and closed the door just to see the rain but rain looked me and explained that I need to catch a train As I crossed a railway I got hit by a train When the train went over me I forgot my pain!

Little Tree 05:40
I'm a little tree on the hill looking south, standing still it's an early spring, wind blows around I have to keep my roots in the ground A little bird came to me one day sang a song and stayed whole May leaves appeared to me with flowers on the bloom I never have felt this good I asked the bird to stay with me and sing through the fall and winter and the spring "Make a nest in me, and you will see that I'm the most comfortable tree" Summer passed and flowers fell asleep nature was going to retreat and bird went to south, my leaves fell on the ground I never have been so down "I will fly away to where the grass grows green I'll across the sea and there I'll find a tree" I'm a little tree on the hill looking south standing still It's a winter now, but you are not mine so I'm not feeling too fine A gust of wind came to me to teach that some things are out of my reach "You know the birds come an go and trees stay on their place, these are little facts you have to face" She'll come back one day land on your branch and say: "Sing for you whole May but I will fly away"

I'm gonna clean my apartment today I'll hoover and sweep all the rooms I'll wash all the windows and wax the floor I have quite lot to do I found memories from my shelf and more of them from the drawers I'll sort them all out and make nice piles and one of them I'll throw away I check out my kitchen and see spices which I'll never use I put them in a bag and throw them to trash you're not having them back I'm gonna clean my apartment today I'll hoover and sweep all the rooms I'll wash all the windows and wax the floor and maybe I'll forget about you All clothing that have your scent I'm gonna give to the poor I'll sanitize them all and put them in a box someone's gonna have nice rags I was cleaning the tiles on the wall and saw lip marks on the bathroom mirror I'll wipe them all out and soon I'll forget the way how we used to kiss I cleaned my apartment today I hoovered and swept all the rooms I washed all the windows and waxed the floor and then you said those words "Oh honey I miss you so Let us have another go Don't lie to me I know how you feel I'll move back to our house" Oh baby I hate to say but you came bit too late We can't go back to the time that we had 'cause I cleaned my apartment today I cleaned my apartment today I hoovered and swept all the rooms I washed all the windows and waxed the floor I cleaned my apartment today

about

Eerie Folk's first album Little Tree was released in 11th of December in 2010. This full-length album with eleven songs was the first published recording we ever made and we're still quite happy about it. But not so happy that we would just stop releasing new albums, in fact, the next album is on its way and will see the daylight in the early 2012.

Also, the rest of the songs from Little Tree will soon be available!
