About Me

My name is Darren Keen. I am working on new songs. I don't mind that my voice isn't very good at singing on pitch. I want to play nice music. I am working on new songs. Yes I know I said that already.

I am done recording/mixing/mastering the album. It's 13 tracks and about 24 minutes. That's about 1.75 minutes a song.

I put 5 of the songs up here on myspace. I hope you enjoy them. Album out January 10th on it are good records / slumberparty records

LYRICS

BERLIN, NEBRASKA (DEMO)

I was happy in berlin / doing drugs with my new friends / i was thinking about my life / and what a strange one it's been / oh, i don't know / i was happier in berlin then i've ever been in lincoln / except for when i moved in with jim / but how can i feel like that again? / oh, i don't know / i maxed out a credit line / what am i doing with my life? / oh, i don't know

BIGGEST BITE

there are parts of body that are too tough to chew / his mouth is bloody and he'll spit it at you / soaked and soiled what can you do? / there are parts of life that are too tough to chew / his mouth is molten filled with meaningless tools / your ears are stripped now what can you do? / don't you want a bite?

LOOK BUT DON'T TOUCH

you can look but don't touch / sometimes looking is not enough / as my thoughts wander away / i wonder what you'd say / if i told you i liked you i think that maybe you like me too / but what am i to do / there's another you're promised to / you can look but don't touch /sometimes looking makes it too tough / i took your hand in mine / and swore i'd never leave your side / i told you i liked you / you said that you liked me too / but what are we to do / there's another you're promised to /

HOT AIR BALLOON

i wanna trip / with all my best friends / so i go and get / a big group of them / and we get inside / my hot air balloon / guide me toward the moon / hot air balloon / you'll never get to heaven if you're scared of getting high

THERE ARE NO RULES

why do people care what a song says / why do people care whats in my head / till the end of time i'll ask this / you're too cool to have fun / you try and tell me about rules but i know there are none

RAINBOW

sing it loud / sing it proud / you're a rainbow now / upside down / bye bye my love / i'll miss the way you say goodbye / sing it loud
