Dan King KBMG: Previews
The Jerker
The Jerker was written by Dan specifically for the female lead singers of the Bandit Kings. By putting himself in the shoes of what it might be like for a young girl staking out her space after a break up with a jerk.
" I find writing for other singers a complete release from the restraints of my own limited vocal capability! These girls high voices are like having a brand new instrument to play "
the jerker
Sad times, freak out lines, drinks on the way
kind of like my low top ride, boots high and fake
feeling fine, took some time, to get over it
here he comes, out of the sun and into the pit
hide your eyes, hide your eyes
the jerker, the jerker
it was love I was thinking of on a sunny day
now its dark, put out the spark,
I can’t wait for the fade
highs and lows with nothing to show
but burned out remains
I’m strong, don’t help me along
I know your name
hide your eyes, the jerker
leave me alone
don’t you talk to me
get away unless you want me to scream
I’ve got a right to be here tonight
bad fights, turn off the lights,
I’m done with this
little boy don’t make me annoyed
I can throw a fit
walk on, clothes on the lawn,
can’t find your jeans
too bad, it don’t make me sad
it makes me mean
