Description

Baby, you don't rock'n'roll like you used to...
Did you give your heart a shot of Novocain?
I bet anything you're a hard kisser...
What would happen if I fall in love...
What's your world view? We should chat it up...
Do you stand to gain more from avoiding your hopes or overcoming your fear?
Enough talk. We should go back to my place and have sex...
Why aren't we spending the night together?
I heard somebody sayin' it was beautiful, but...
What's so great about love???
I ain't feelin' too good about anything...
You give me something, then you take it back...

It kinda fades away...

LYRICS:

RnR

You dont rock and roll like you used to
You dont rock and roll like you used to

You dont want to do the twist
You got a new dance, it goes like this

You dont rock and roll like you used to
You dont rock and roll like you used to

You dont want to jump and shout
You just want to sit and pout

You dont rock and roll like you used to
You dont rock and roll like you used to

You yell and curse about how youre pissed
Id rather play a song thatll get me kissed

You dont rock and roll like you used to
Whoo hoo

I never did get the whole techno thing
What does it mean if it aint got that swing?
Emos dark and metals fast
It might, uh, work for some, but I think Ill pass

You dont rock and roll like you used to
Whoo hoo

NOVOCAIN

Youve gotten tough
Your hearts been beat up
You said it only hurt a little bit
Youve had enough
Disingenuous love
And everything that comes with it
You get a thrill
When you reel em in a little
Then you turn away
Whats a boy t do
With a girl like you
But give his heart a shot of Novocain

Give your heart a shot of Novocain
Dont feel anything
Nothin gonna get to you

Give your heart a shot of Novocain
Dont feel anything

There are nights
When you feel all right
You dont need anyone around
Other times
When your words dont rhyme
You wish he was there to write you a poem
You wanna keep im on a string
When it looks like hes a driftin
You can pull him back
Makes a boy wonder
About your previous lovers
And what they couldve done to make you act like that

Gave your heart a shot of Novocain
Dont feel anything
Nothin gonna get to you

Give your heart a shot of Novocain
Dont feel anything
No joy, no pain

I know about that condition
Be careful what you wish upon yourself
Might help to get you by like any temporary fix
Or hollow you out unlike anything that you had ever felt

Give your heart a shot of Novocain
Dont feel anything
Nothin gonna get to you

Give your heart a shot of Novocain
Dont feel anything
No joy, no pain

Give your heart a shot
Give your heart a shot of Novocain

HARD KISSER

I bet anything youre a hard kisser
I bet you put your lips right through mine
Take the breath right outta my lungs
You sweet, seductive serpentine

One night with you, I know
I would never be the same
I bet anything youre a hard kisser
And I dont even want to know your name

You could have me walkin
On my knees to your door
Oh yeah, I know
Like every other lusting man before

Lets just say for arguments sake
I put the make on and you take the bait
Dont want to see a misty look in your eyes
Im not invitin you to go look at a sunrise

Im no the kind that you want to dismiss for
Your baby-toothed, mommas little well-wisher, naw
Think of me as a man on a mission
I bet anything youre a hard kisser

You could have me walkin
On my knees to your door
Could be everything ever dreamed
Only one way we can know for sure

I bet anything youre a hard kisser
I bet you put your lips right through mine
Heres a key and the number to my door
Why dont ya come up and see me sometime

FALL IN LOVE (CJ Watson, Greg Klyma)

Fall in love

I dont know what to expect
Except that Ill find out in time
Time has never been my friend
Spending it waiting for a sign to see
If theres time for me

I seek comfort from my friends
My friends say to let you go
Go on tell me that theyre wrong
Tell me something so Ill know what to do
Should I show I feel somethin for you

So much time all alone
Reached some conclusions on my own
But this ones got me stumblin, trippin
Lord, could I be slippin, tumblin
From this humpty dumpty wall
What would happen if I fall in love?

Fall in love

No use wasting all this time
This time youve got to decide
Which side of this thing youre on
On the move or on my mind, whats it gonna be?
Is there time, is there time for me?

So much time all alone
Reached some conclusions on my own
But this ones got me stumblin, trippin
Lord, could I be slippin, tumblin
From this humpty dumpty wall
What would happen if I fall in love?

CHAT IT UP

Talk talk talk roll out the red carpet
For the communications age
I emailed my fax machine to dial up your cell phone
Did you get the page
Nowadays there isnt anywhere you can go
Where you cant reach everyone and they cant reach you
While some people thrive in this others in self-defense
Simply do not chat it up like they used to

Cell phone society talk is cheap you should see
My pricing plan
I can talk to my girlfriend in town for as much
As it costs me to talk to this girl in Japan
She dont speak my language and I dont speak hers
A computer chip translates as we chortle and coo
When my girl in town found out she blew a fuse and now
We just do not chat it up like we used to

Email retrieval syndrome Orwell was onto something
Screens casting images in everyones room
Information super highway surf surf surf surf safari
Help me Rhonda yea you got to chat me up soon
Online breeds cowardice as everyones alias
Keeps them anonymous in their points of view
With capital letters Rhonda said that I upset her and now
We just dont chat it up like we used to in the chit chat room

Once upon a time in my neighborhood you could see
All the way down to the end of the street
Neighbors were neighborly we sat on our porches
I knew all their names they knew me
Now folks keep to themselves all locked up in their houses
Eight foot high fences obscuring the view
We wave to each other as we exit our driveways
But we just do not chat it up like we used to

I need a tonic for talk electronic
While others just cannot get enough of it
Yes, my cell phone is handy but I have a pet peeve
Can I get a witness wheres the etiquette
At movies and concerts libraries and restaurants
They talk on the cell phone and dont have a clue
Im told I should accept it but I find it rude
There are some things that I just dont care to get used to

There are certain subjects you dont chat up in polite company
But all this talk about talking has me feeling quite odd
I was torn over which to pick so I flipped a coin to decide the topic
Tales down no politics for now heads up God
Born again Christians praying to a born again Jew
And this one says like Abraham he speaks with you know who
Well Ive read from scripture and Ive talked to God too
But He just does not chat it up like He used to
She just does not chat it up like She used to
It does not chat It up


FEAR (CJ Watson, John Brady, Greg Klyma)

Fear is a powerful master
Ruling with an iron glove
Imposing limitations upon you
Keeping you from things that you love

The questions you need to be askin
What are you lookin for here
Do you stand to gain more from avoiding your hopes or
Overcoming your fear

Youre afraid of losing her
Thats a natural fact
Shes afraid of having you
How natural is that

The questions you need to be askin
What are you lookin for here
Do you stand to gain more from avoiding your hopes or
Overcoming your fear
The questions you need to be askin
What are you lookin for here
Do you stand to gain more from avoiding your hopes or
Overcoming your fear

YOU KNOW ME BETTER

You are my very best friend
You are my very best friend
You are my very best friend, you are
You are my very best friend
You are my very best friend
Thats great and we just met tonight

You know me better than anyone
You know me better than anyone else
You know me better than anyone
You know me better than anyone does
You know me better and thats great
Cause we just met tonight

Weve got so much in common
You know my hopes and fears
I never seen it comin
Ive waited all these years
You know me better and thats great
Cause we just met tonight

I think we should go back to my place and have sex

You are my very best friend
You are my very best friend
You are my very best friend, you are
You are my very best friend
You are my very best friend
Thats great and we just met tonight

You know me better than anyone
You know me better than anyone else
You know me better than anyone
You know me better than anyone does
You know me better and thats great
Cause we just met tonight

SPENDING THE NIGHT

Why arent we spending the night together
Why arent we lying in each others arms
Why arent we sharing our sides of the stories
Of the lives weve live so far

And we dont have to do anything but talk
And we dont have to do anything at all
I could just look at you in the moonlights glow
You were sleepin
You didnt have to know
You didnt even know

Why arent we spending the night together
Why arent we lying in each others arms
Why arent we sharing our sides of the stories
Of the lives weve live so far

THE SADDEST WAY

Lookin for a way to get through to you
Searchin for the words to say
Wonderin if theres anything nice that I could do
Probably wouldnt matter much anyway

Id probably just be crossin some line
Isnt it a cryin shame
You spend so much time searchin for a someone like her
And the ya find er only to find out that she doesnt feel the same

Oh ooh whoa
I heard somebody sayin it was beautiful

Well, dont ya think I know it is
Oh ooh whoa
So beautiful in the saddest way

I blame myself if things got to feelin just a little uncomfortable
Ive always been the awkward kind
I was just thinkin maybe, perhaps we
I dont know what put such a silly idea in my mind
Now maybe I should go
Dont wanna think about a love no more

Oh ooh whoa
I heard somebody sayin it was beautiful
Well, dont ya think I know it is
Oh ooh whoa
So beautiful in the saddest way

Oh ooh whoa
I heard somebody sayin it was beautiful
Well, dont ya think I know it is
Oh ooh whoa
So beautiful
In the saddest way

WHAT'S SO GREAT ABOUT LOVE(John Brady)

Whats so great about love?
Falling in and out of maybe
Seems it only makes you crazy
Whats so great about love?

What so great about love?
Thought a lot about it lately
Its full of lots of ifs and maybes
What so great about love?

Did she mean what she just said
Or was I reading into that?
Theres the phone, well, maybe thats her now

Does she want to be with me?
Or is it in my mind or maybe
She will take my arm and say dont go
How do I know?

What so great about love?
It isnt really realistic
You really gotta be a mystic
What so great about love?

I feel like Im just seventeen
Ridiculous, but true, it seems
Its like I wanna meet you after school
I wanna run, I wanna hide
I wanna pull ya to my side
I wanna know what Im supposed to do
What do I do?

What so great about love?
The evidence is on the table
Its better in rhymes and fables
Im ready but I feel unable
What so great about love?

Maybe well have coffee and well talk an hour or more
It gets late, she stands up, so do I, we eye the door
Man, I feel stupid. Does she know it? Does it show?
Then the silence roars like thunder and its time somebody stays
And someone goes
The tension grows

Whats so great about love?
Falling in and out of maybe
Seems it only makes you crazy
Whats so great about love?
Whats so great about love?
Whats so great about love?

GOOD ABOUT ANYTHING

I aint feelin too good about anything
And its been hard to pinpoint just what it is thats wrong
Makes me want to run off to the hills or some place
Where I can just sit for awhile
Underneath the sun
Write it all down in a journal
Bury it there and move on

Hey, I adore ya, Just like I said I did
What Ive learned about you aint too flattering
So, Ill keep it hid
I only think about ya, Every now and then
When I aint feeling too good about anything

Who needs you, who needs anything
When youve got a radio, four wheels and an open road
Got a station comin in from some place far away
Aint that the way it goes
Just when ya find a song thats good
Youve taken that car just a mile too far
And the signals gone but youve just gotta move on

Hey, I adore ya, Just like I said I did
What Ive learned about you aint too flattering
So, Ill keep it hid
I only think about ya, Every now and then
When I aint feeling too good about anything

So what Im a dreamer
Makin wishes is what I do
So what if some of em fall flat
Even dreamers know that they cant all come true

Hey, I adore ya, Just like I said I did
What Ive learned about you aint too flattering
So, Ill keep it hid
I only think about ya, Every now and then
When I aint feeling too good about anything

Good about anything

DRIVER (Brenton, Klyma)

You give me somethin' then ya take it back
Tell me driver what you're drivin' at
Stated your case, I thought that that was that
You give me somethin' then ya take it back

I mightve guessed you was deceivin me
Now all my dreams lay across the sea
The driver can not take that road
Gonna build a ship and sale it on my own

You give me somethin' then ya take it back
Tell me driver what you're drivin' at
Stated your case, I thought that that was that
You give me somethin' then ya take it back

Tell me now Driver whats your song
A few good lines but it lasts too long
Sorry now Driver I cant stay
Patience for a moment then it fades away

It kind of fades away
It kind of fades away
It kind of fades away
It kind of fades away

You give me somethin' then ya take it back
Tell me driver what you're drivin' at
Stated your case, I thought that that was that
You give me somethin' then ya take it back

It kind of fades away
It kind of fades away
It kind of fades away
It kind of fades away

GREG KLYMA ROCKS!!!

2005 Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk Finalist
2005 South Florida Folk Festival Song Contest Finalist
2005 Kerrville Wine and Music Festival performer
2003 - 2005 Festival for the Eno performer
2005 Artvoice People Choice Awards, Best Folk/Acoustic act (Buffalo, NY)

Songwriter/Musician Greg Klyma is a character. He's played that character into his well-worn dreadnought acoustic guitar. In December 2004, Klyma moved to Austin, TX. Before doing so, he booked a recording session in his hometown of Buffalo, NY.

Recorded at Sessions from December 2004 through August 2005 and mixed by Bob Klotz September through October 2005 (Klotz Audio, Port Matilda, PA), Driver delivers the dynamic sound of a band playing in a room together, accompanying a songwriter and playing the space. There are very few solos on the album. The arrangements and mixes on Driver play to the drive and depth of Klyma's powerful acoustic guitar playing and to the songs themselves.

For the better part of the last decade, Greg Klyma has toured the country as a solo acoustic act, garnering accolades as a rising new talent along the way (2005 Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk, 2005 South Florida Folk Festival song contest finalist). Prior to this life on the road, Klyma fronted his own band in the clubs of Buffalo. Driver is not a departure from his solo acoustic ways, as much as it is a return to roots - a long awaited and expected rock release from a folk troubadour with a rock and roll heart.

Greg's fourth solo release, Driver features vocal performances by Anais Mitchell, Molly Countermine, Joelle Labert and Jonathan Byrd (Byrd sings a duet with Klyma on the title track). Greg lays down 8 new songs of his own, 3 co-writes and a rendering of John Brady's "What's So Great About Love?"

Backed by John Brady (guitar), Jim Whitford (bass), Jim Ehinger (keyboards), and Mike Brydalski (drums), Driver is the follow-up to Greg's well-received 2003 release, Not a Complicated Guy ("He's the real deal, singing about stuff that matters" - Sing Out! Magazine; "Witty, down-home troubadour" - Austin Chronicle).
