lyrics

EMPTY MAN /HOLLOW MAN barron
E7 got a shed and it's A7 made out of wood
E7 ain't the biggest in the A7 neighbourhood
E7 I like to hang out there A7 everyday
E7 wouldn't have it any A7 other way
E7 got a party palace A7 out on a lake
E7 people think it's really A7 great
E7 keep my party favours A7 up on the shelf
E7 i don't share'em cause i A7 live by myself

B7 But then again I got no A7 plan
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 E7 i'm an empty man A7

i ride a highway.. it's all Hot Air .. / i like to feel the road in my hair
I roll along like a tumbling dice / hit the jackpot, now wouldn't that be nice
I got no dog.. I threw away the bone / i got no lover cause i live all alone
they say life's like an empty cup/ someone please come and fill me up

B7 But then again I got no A7 plan
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 E7 i'm an empty man A7

break (over verse structure)

the sun is shining and the day is half done / i missed the game .. i wonder who won
i pull my duvet up over my head / maybe it's time i got outta bed
i can't believe who i see in the mirror / i start my day with a bottle of beer
i need a reason + a master plan / like Delbert says i'm dying fast as i can

B7 But then again I got no A7 plan
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 (EMPTY MAN!) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)
E7 i"m an Hollow Man A7 (HOLLOW MAN) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)
E7 i"m an Shallow Man A7 (SHALLOW MAN) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 (EMPTY MAN!) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)

about

BARRON/HARBOUR/DREAM TAXI Nova Scotia

PRESS QUOTES:
"His early stuff find the mad-scientist whine of Barron's synth in cosmic dalliance with sprays of Korg and processed Sax over a bed of surrealistic power chords. Also notable are the tape delay effect that imposes it's onw semblance of order amid the percussion arc." NEW WAVE PILLOW Magazine

" Barron had a one time embraced Hippiedom. His physical appearance, fl ... more
