This song became a kind of audio character piece. I had a lot of fun trying out a whole swath of sounds, deciding what seemed to fit in the "world" of this recording, twisting my voice here and there. All in all, as I'm coming to the end of my first month, this song got me where I hoped this project would - lots of experimenting, lots of fun, and a reason to dive deep into something I might have not gotten the chance to.

Introducing The Medicine Man
Presented in iris, Ey this seems so funny to me
If you're using The Medicine Man
Why's it in when you can be so good but it all seem so different to me
When you shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
And fall flat every time
When you shoot from the hip, what you use when you dip
When did the moon get so high?
Introducing The Medicine Man
He starts as an extra, but thats when he gets ya so intimately
Make way - The Medicine Man
He can get you so mad when he says
"Well if you think you're going to make it then you're CRAZY!"
When you shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
And fall flat every time
When you shoot from the hip, what you use when you dip
When did the moon get so high?
You're pure boned, a natural poet
Smoke rings from the backseat, treat for my senses
So many times, you've got to lose
But now you get a way to choose
Introducing the Medicine Man
A standing ovation, with no hesitation he exist the scene.
You're not choosing the Medicine Man
He's a fixture demand when the expectations are bleeding me
When you shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
And fall flat every time
When you shoot from the hip, what you use when you dip
And The Medicine Man is on your mind
