Eddie the Rat

Eddie the Rat is the pseudonym for composer/ multi-instrumentalist, P.R.Martin and the musical group who execute his carefully constructed compositions. Martin's music has been called "sexy avant-garde" and "head music for your feet." Inspired by everything from Indonesian gamelan, American music styles (Jazz, Blues, rock), and modern orchestral music, Eddie the Rat bridges the way between ritual, roots, and concert music. It's All Part of the Ongoing Construct.

Well, I'm hooked to my heart  and I'm walking on air.
Got a pretzel for my gut, and some sand in my hair.
I ordered a pizza from heaven above.
Always holding up the world.
Always holding out for love.

Got a line that I swiped that I used in a clutch.
When I propped my self skyward with a heavenly crutch.
I built a little treehouse.
I wanted to sleep.
Didn't want to stand out in a bunch of black sheep.

Chorus:
Out behind the 8-ball is where I seem to be
but sometimes I feel it stick to me like static electricity.
Sometimes I feel it stick to me like static electricity.

Put my mouth around a word.
Took my head out of my heart.
I should have been a monk.
I think I thank myself thunk.
I built a little treehouse.
I wanted to sleep.
Didn't want to stand out in a bunch of black sheep.

Chorus:
Out behind the 8-ball is where I seem to be
but sometimes I feel it stick to me like static electricity.
Sometimes I feel it stick to me like static electricity.
