lyrics

Behind the curtains of the Donky King
Hides a Slug-man no-one’s ever seen
He sleeps in the closet with no spine
Lies on the ground without looking around

He won’t tell us what he feels
He hides the secret of the Dunky King

All things went wrong from the beginning
Said the Slug-man to the wall

Under the mighty mask of the Donky King
Grows a slug-man no-one’s ever heard
He doesn’t make a sound when he goes out
Tries to crawl without messing around

He won’t tell us what he needs
He hides in the shadow of the Donky King

All things went wrong from the beginning
Said the Slug-man to the wall

Throughout the eyeballs of the Donky King
Cries a Slug-man no-one’s ever heard of
He’s not the kind of man to show off
He’s the single officer in the back of beyond

He won’t ask us for a throne
He holds the backbone of the Dunky King

All things went wrong from the beginning
Said the Slug-man to the wall

about

MOCKING DEAD BIRD image

MOCKING DEAD BIRD Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France

The Band was born in july 2017. But the guys knew each other for a very long time. Real friends, connected souls & hearts. These blue rock songs and dark folk ballads were waiting for the good time to rise. Mind the dead bird still mocking.
