Bird Man

My favorite and only little brother is strange, born and raised in bizarro town USA. No one knows where he came from, but it's no secret that he's probably the family favorite. For his birthday one year, all he wanted was a Book of Mormon in braille and is always seeking out books on math equations or weird diseases. For years one of the only things on his wall was a hand colored picture he drew that said 'The Day of Doom'. I have never met someone who is more genuinely fascinated by people than he is - if he knows there is going to be confrontation, he gets excited not because he's confrontational but because he finds it interesting. He will talk to any and everyone and immediately get into the meat of who they are and what their story is. The list goes on. However, what's really cool is ever since he was a kid, he could pick up an instrument, focus, and learn to play it by the end of the day - he plays the guitar, bass, banjo, mandolin, drums, harmonica, piano, accordion, trumpet, and maybe a couple of other things too. He loves writing songs and always comes up with something interesting - I think he's really talented and just such a cute kid. Anyway, thought I'd post a video from a recent house party he played at. He wrote it for a girl's birthday he lives by who him and all his friends called 'the dresden doll' for one reason or another but I don't think she appreciated it as much as others.


and lyrics:
The dresden doll named Aryel fell right on down from heaven,
Onto the world below,
The gods above said "how we love her, she's one of our finest,
But sadly she must go."

The dresden doll don't like the cookie dough being all touched by
The fat girl's dirty hands,
She'll take the elevator even though it's just one story,
Because she knows she can.

Dresden doll flew here to grace our planet earth,
Delivered through on November twenty-third,
Dresden doll flew here to grace our planet earth,
Let's take a thought or two and give it to Aryel's birth.

Rumor has it the dresden doll has a brother she's dating,
With an eight year old son.
When he scares her the bed of Lauren is easily taken,
While Vampire Diaries run.

And dresden doll, with you I'd like to have a good connection,
As kids will do these days.
Hope it's not out of line to give you this one small confession:
You are the one I praise.

Dresden doll flew here to grace our planet earth,
Delivered through on November twenty-third,
Dresden doll flew here to grace our planet earth,
Let's take a thought or two and give it to Aryel's birth.

And ok here's one more...
