- The devil told my grampa
The day that he would die
And my grampa told my grandma
And she thought it was a lie
Then the day came and my
Grampa he lay dead
Just like the devil said
A train cut off his arms and legs
And it's a story that my mother told to me
Some people say that its too hard to believe, but
You gotta believe that my mother never lies
She's never in her life and my grampa he did die, yeah
My father he's hard-workin' man
the devil's never had a hand
in anything he did
He's the hardest workin' man I've ever seen
But I guess his hardest work,
it never worked on me, 'cause
He thinks I'm lazy and he
thinks that I'm a shame because
I haven't got a job any
money or a name and...
He's worried about me and what I'm gonna do
How I'm gonna live I hope the devil's worried too, yeah
My lover she's what keeps me alive
She's the only thing I like in this
World that I despise
She sings and her voice is soft and sweet
She whistles in the shower and
Somehow she loves me
My grandson asked me once, he said
"Grampa are you crazy?" and I said
"Just a touch" and I
Got out my guitar,
I showed him how to play and I
Taught him how to sing the song a little out of key, yeah
And the devil sang with me, and the devil sang with me
On my shoulder like a friend that never leaves
And the devil sang with me, and the devil sang with me
On my shoulder like a friend that never leaves
when i was taking keyboarding in high school in 2006 someone had uploaded this and a few other ghost mice songs to the computer, and i would listen while learning to type. never heard them anywhere else before or since
Damn son. This, hits.
Don't look back... Forward. Forever. Cherish the highs, try to misremember the lows. Lost in a perpetual ground hog daze. Dreams are the stuff of which the future is made.
Sometimes I wish I was brave enough to live life this way..
thats "i figured out how i feel about you" by Captain Chaos
another favorite!
Long live the folk punks! :)
Ten years later I agree with this sentiment
I'm sure considering this band's fan base, you could find some people giving it out for free on the internet somewhere.
Its "i figured out how i feel about you" by captain chaos which is the singer of ghost mice so thats why it sounds the same
is the spotify version on youtube? sounds so different there
What album is this from? And where can I get it? I know it isn't the Debt of the Dead..
@Trigger762 that song is called I Figured Out How I Feel About You by Captain Chaos.
i have no idea qhy but i really dig this song man lol
@Trigger762 its Captain Chaos not ghost mice, but the songs called "I Figured Out How I Feel About You"
@phr33kRAWR agreed...like iv'e seen rancid play an operation ivy song if any of that makes sense to you.
@Trigger762 Here you go:
Captain Chaos, "I Figured Out How I Feel About You"
@Stonedbrains thats a captain chaos song. its the same guitarist/singer.
"i figured out how i feel about you"
@Trigger762
yes that song is called "i figured out how i feel about you" by Captain chaos
@Trigger762 It's called I Figured Out How I Feel About You by Captain Chaos.
I like this song. I guess I'm kind of lucky that I'm only picky about the voices of opera singers and it's the lyrics that matter to me with bands :)
loveee it
yap captain chaos
@Trigger762 ive heard the song your talking about i think its the max levine ensemble, im not sure though but i think its like a cartoon video on youtube
this version is way slower than the onhe I have, what release is it on?
They sound similar to Defiance Ohio. I like. (:
@1223dude1223 and i always see YOU on good music, its like a little family of punk rock! haha
I was just gonna post that! it's Ghost Mice - Collection One Or The Fairy War
@Trigger762 That song is by Captain Chaos i cat remeber the name of the song tho.
i say riot folk just cause it sounds badass
i just figured out the singer was friends with my aunt and uncle..
does anyone know if they have a song that ends like, feed the cat and ill check the mail call up all of my friends and let them know im not in jail! cause it really sounds alike
Let's all answer Trigger762's question! Before someone else does it!
where can i find these guys!?!?!?! :)
Somebody needs to change the RPM switch from 45 to 33...
where can i hear the new vocalist?
@miniraptorX
relevant to my interests also.
@Trigger762 i have no idea.
I say "Punk Folk" because saying "Folk Punk" sounds weird to say. to me.
@C0rporeal yea, a year later I have to admit I was wrong about that.
@C0rporeal hey c0rporeal i always find you on great music its like im following you too it hahahahaha
@Trigger762 Captain Chaos- i figured out how i feel about you
@Trigger762
Captain Chaos - I Figured Out How I Feel About You
@katrinalol what is the point?
@whenyousleeep no help at all.
FOr some reason I love everything about this song but the vocal... I guess whatever genre of this music is an acquired taste... umm folk something?
@Trigger762 Captain Chaos, I Figured Out How I Feel About You
haha, there is no new vocalist
maybe the grandpa committed suicide, its not too hard to believe at all.
This is not one of their best and I feel the violin being out of tune (or the harmonica or both) is what sets this song from me liking it. I hope they redo this one day because the rest of it sounds great!
I think it might be on purpose because they mention in the song about singing a little out of tune.
it's lo-fi... that's the point.
hes voice is kinda meh (sounds like a generic pop emo singer) but i like the guitar and especially the little interlude thing a lot. i could easily grow to like his voice
@C0rporeal His voice is nasally and affected. More at home with backing music like Sum-41 than what we have here. It's a little jarring at first.
someones new.

oh, this is awful. sorry, but it sucks.
