Raccoon
Lyrics: Joe Dennis & CVX
Music: Joe Dennis & CVX
Album: Live From Paris

Rochambeau
Lyrics: Ted Schillinger, Joe Dennis, & CVX
Music: Ted Schillinger
Album: Inner Child Proof
Description: Tim and Joe haven't finished the song yet, so it really shouldn't be listed here. Oh what the heck, we'll probably learn it. It is about that Rock-Paper-Scissors game.

World's Drunkest Man
Lyrics: John Milne
Music: John Milne
Album: (Unrecorded)
Description: This is another John Milne song. It is about his vacation last year. Considering the subject matter (setting "a new world's record for drinking"), you may never hear it except in a bar.

Yuppie Refugee
Lyrics: Peter Harlan & CVX
Music: Peter Harlan & CVX
Album: Inner Child Proof
Description: This song has a good sound, but we don't do it much any more because the lyrics are getting dated ("I suffered through the eighties..."). |
