Chris Jeffries Homeless Romantic - Pigs Will Fly
One day time will die
and love will bury it
love will bury it
love will bury it
one of these mornings i'll pop these strings
and kill my marionette
and kill my marionette
i'll beat my dead horse and force him to drink
and blow the wheels off my chariot
the wheels of my chariot
the wheels of my chariot
now i'll never get to heaven
now i'l never get to heaven
now i'll never get to heaven
one day i'll put down my rifle
when i'm too weak to carry it
too weak to carry it
the bullets don't fit in it
one day I know pigs will fly
and it will be hilarious
and it will be hilarious
a priest will marry us
one of these days will turn into night
The Homeless Romantic is a revolving cast of musicians who help bring my songwriting to life. The music is a disjointed poetic look the life of a 21st century vagabond.
Hopping freight trains, dumpster diving, and various forms of petty crime in order to continue travelling and living. The disappointment of a traditional lifestyle, the rejection of everything conformist and the experience over 10 years, going from apathy to empathy.
“If Lou Reed had lived in the ’30s and had an affinity for moonshine instead of heroin, he would sound dangerously close to the delicate rootsiness of what Chris Jeffries is creating. Combining the swagger of Mr. Reed with the bad-luck living and roaring fingerpicking of folk stalwarts like Lead Belly, Jeffries creates a sound that could be plucked straight out of your granddaddy’s Crosley. This three-song, self-titled EP also conjures images of Chris Adolf’s pre-Bad Weather California project, the Love Letter Band, which, like Jeffries himself, was stripped down, slightly psychotic and teetering on the verge of its own classification. Although Jeffries calls on a myriad of influences, he is close to creating a sound that is uniquely his own — and right at home on any chain gang.”
