Temporarily Thin Skin Words and music by Erika Bach / lola demo January 2009 © All rights reserved __________________________________________ Beautiful mind don’t you think it’s time you take back what you gave for free You could breathe easy Not a man Not a woman has you loaded like a gun Roll your barrel and have some fun for change Don’t think about holding back You’ve got a rage that deserves attack Yeah Burn gasoline Light it up it’s time to set this old love on fire Burn it up Burn it down Yeah Yeah Yeah You said it first Now why take back what you really mean There’s a real condition here An intention to fuel this speed without a word A word or reason You have a way of licking yourself clean of any doubt or speculation You, you’re shining like the blade of the knife that’s sticking into my temporarily thin skin Shining like the blade sticking into my back Into my temporarily thin skin Beautiful mind I lost concentration for awhile Had a lapse in judgement when you kissed me with your pink Mohican Couldn’t breathe I had to start again Got a cramp in my effection Put your Jesus t-shirt on film Unrelated to your action You’re a human accident A car crash waiting to happen when The razor falls down on my temporarily thin skin On my temporarily thin skin Shining like the blade sticking into my back Shining like the blade sticking into my back Shining like the blade sticking into my back Shining like the blade sticking into my back Shining like the blade sticking into my back Shining like the blade sticking into my back Shining like the blade sticking into my Into my temporarily thin skin Yeah Yeah

about

Before I was out of my teens, I used to do Cabaret gigs at the strip clubs on St. Kilda Road in Melbourne Australia, where soul, blues and jazz seemed to be just the ticket for keeping the dirty old men with their pants on inbetween the strip shows.

With Leave That Girl Alone, I guess I wanted to record that style of singing, while also making a vehicle for Demetri Vlass's guitar chops (from his thrash influences, no one knows he can actually play like this). I replaced the bad electric piano sound of the 70's Cabaret for a more 60's feel and sound because I will never be that desperate as to want to recreate the cabaret sound of that time. It was pretty painful.

Now it's done, don't expect to hear me do it again. Just because I can, doesn't mean I want to...although I might, if I feel like it.
