Biography:
Frog Eyes is an indie rock band from Victoria (British Columbia, Canada), The quartet is led by singer/guitarist Carey Mercer and is known for their highly idiosyncratic songs, which pit Mercer's unhinged, melodic vocals against a swirling mass of guitar, keyboards, and drums. Drummer Melanie Campbell (also Mercer's wife) notably uses a 'found object' as part of her drums set, the so-called "dinger." This object was only used on their first three albums and has since been disposed of in favour of a normal ride cymbal.

[Verse]
G Em
Well, I ain't around much, I program my name into the air,
D A
I assure the crow in the morning, You are my favorite son,
G Em
I'm not your favorite son, The sacred question shall burn into your brain,
D A
But when the wind blows black, grief upon thy face,
G
You shall mutter my, my name, and then regain,
Em
The composure,
D A
Of the man that I love, And you'll climb with your son,
G Em
Up on the ragged mountain's path, Oh it's a beggars dusty train,
D A
And sleep on boulder beds, Quell your own damned wrath,
G
And think of ways to trade your name, You light a fire for the girls, light a fire for the girls
Em
Singing "Sharpen your knife"
D A
And tell 'em tales from your wicked life, Tell 'em that the march of that face,
G Em
Searching to the greater m-man, And the only way to love,
D A
Is to take me in, My voice is everywhere,
G Em
My voice is no, no where, My voice is in the air,
D A
That's what I wanted to hear, That's why I now stay your hand,
G
You may return to your families, You may never understand, you may never understand,
Em
That I just wanted to hear, oh-oh-oh,
D A
The sound, oh the sound, Of their father,
G Em
Saying goodbye, Whoa-oh-oh
