KEEP MY HEAD 03:29
Keep My Head Look at us We swallowed the TV Now we feel so free Look at us We’re stars in the gutters Oh mudder, Come, come, come Take me out this place Wanna stay Wanna get shit-faced and fade away Swallowed so much of the cathode cult We’re gonna be fine Everybody has some doubts Keep my head Under your bed And when you get wet Take it out again Keep my head Under your bed And when you get wet Take it out again Take it out again So long, I see this all wrong Sing broken opera Swallowed everyone Sharp teeth, come with me So free, Let’s be whatever we want tonight Run around in the moonlight Naked if you want Naked if you want Naked if you want Swallowed so much of the cathode cult Everybody has doubts, but, but, but Keep my head Under your bed And when you get wet Take it out again Keep my head Under your bed And when you get wet Take it out again Take it out again Meet me in the reruns We can have fun No problems Meet me in the reruns We can have fun No problems Don’t change the channel You can handle Don’t change the channel You can handle Don’t change the channel You can handle Anything, anything, anything, anything Keep my head Under your bed And when you get wet Take it out again Keep my head Under your bed And when you get wet Take it out again Take it out again

MIXING STARS 03:46
Mixing Stars Your love tastes good in all angles Reaching diagonal Walk with me while we’re restless In our stars Mixing like cars I walk down the freeway Cause i cannot behave When you’re around Bones ground down Spells i found We’ll be alright if we ride The voices inside Don’t fall asleep tonight The city will taste it If we like The glass between you and i Like our bones will never die And if you live in my heart You’ll never be torn apart The glass between you and i The city that we ride All through the night The glass between you and i It will be just fine if we rise.

2nd Paragraph 2nd removed paragraph: The secret one The one that swallowed down the sun Up and down the back of the lover Drowning at the bottom of the ocean Finding time to mix potions One by one The ghosts all resurrected themselves This time with more arms and more hearts Than ever before

ALIVE ON TV 04:57
Alive on TV Been looking for you And finding out Maybe you’re not real looking for you finding out Maybe you’re not real Taste like shadow Listen to me They say I’m crazy But I love you always Sacred pacts and blood magic And never rid this out my skull looking for you finding out Maybe you’re not real Taste like tragic Sip your magic Stars live in between your legs Always wanted, always suffer Phantom lovers never come back Been looking for you But you might be A ghost i've seen alive on TV I’m looking for you But you might be A ghost i've seen alive on TV Oooo love I delight in you Count my rings How i love you Oh your eyes Kaleidoscope Swallow me, swallow me whole Maybe you’re not real

Walk on Water Velvet hands Follow the light she pulled Cities are scarce and called for your name The eyes in the opera box The mouth that never talks Come on, the secret message awaits us Just leave this earth behind with me We need, tonight, we cut like knives We’re on the way home By the chimney This garden of lovers These reasons recovered From the dawn These seconds respond while you walk alone Manifest me now Begin the countdown Down until we leave this world behind Just leave this earth tonight And let me love you Let me love you In this daze of light Betray tonight Walk on water if you like This heart cut diagonal Like, sweet like your sugary knife Leave this earth Leave it tonight Just let me love you like you like In you, in you, inside Just leave this world with me tonight

Come to the Dawn Down in the red water Where the witches wash my body Down where the sky opens And sings a song for me Just come, come, come Run, run, run Come, come, come To the edge of the dawn They tried to burn the witches But the witches, we survived They tried to burn the witches Now we work 9 to 5 They try but they can’t undo The love we make We follow through Just come, come, come Run, run, run Come, come, come To the edge of the dawn Down where the water is black at night Sing me songs of earthly delight Loosen my eyes And steal my heart Take my head Tear me apart Let’s come, come, come Let’s run, run, run Lets’s come, come, come To the dawn Meet me on a mountain On a mountain of bones Meet me on a mountain Like hell is our home Meet me on a mountain On a mountain of bones Meet me on a mountain With your hand on my throat Let’s run, run, run Lets’s come, come, come To the dawn They tried to burn the witches But the witches, we survived They tried to burn the witches Now we work 9 to 5 Let’s run, run, run Lets’s come, come, come Horizon Meet me on a mountain On a mountain of bones Meet me on a mountain Like hell is our home Meet me on a mountain On a mountain of bones Meet me on a mountain With your hand on my throat Let’s run, run, run Lets’s come, come, come Horizon Let’s come to the edge of the dawn

PUMP 02:32
Pump Love, up and down your sides The stars between your thighs Just ride the warm water’s tide Pump everybody, pump everybody body Jump everybody, jump everybody body I’m riding in the sky tonight Carving up the moonlight Never gonna have a fight Blood, in and out my mouth for you Demon seeds they come so true Fever dreams, they are in you Pump everybody, pump everybody body Jump everybody, jump everybody body

ALIEN FAMILY 03:58
Alien Family Distant galaxy Is gently calling me What’s our mission, please My alien family They miss me so I must be going home The time has come, come, come A distant galaxy Is gently calling me What’s our mission, please My alien family They miss me so I must be going on I’m leaving this world behind And haven’t you felt Like you don’t belong And havent you felt Like somehow you’re all wrong You’re not. You’re perfect You’re magic in this world Distant galaxy Gently calling me What’s our mission, please Alien family They miss me so I must be going home All the way back home What’s our mission, please Alien family They miss me so I must be going home I’m going home.

Art & Design by Walter Alice Sickert


18 Years of RPM and Counting

A note from Edrie:

The first RPM challenge started what would become the artistic direction that we’ve now spent 18 years traveling.

Walter and I met during the time of the 1st RPM challenge
February has always been a time of renewal and change for us. Our daughter Wednesday, now 8, was born in February. We’ve premiered plays, moved houses, lost jobs, got new jobs, been on tour, witnessed weddings, shoveled feet of snow, mourned losses; and yet, we’ve released an album every February every year of the challenge.

No matter what February has brought – we’ve made time to make music


Walter has continued BUNKER BUDS, a daily dystopian talk show dedicated to bringing joy in to the often bleak loneliness of quarantine. They have touched thousands of folks with hundreds of episodes dedicated to helping people see the good and the light of artistic fellowship.

Let Yourself Love Yourself.

Ghost Parade is our 18th RPM offering and is dedicated to the last 18 years of RPMs and to the people, places, and things that have made us who we are today.

Thank you RPM!

Thank you for the space to create and for the reminder that no matter what obstacles the world tossed in our way, we made music.


Love & Tentacles,

Edrie, Walter, Wednesday & the rest of the Broken Toys
