HORRIBLE POWER (Lyrics)
We're blogging for your edification, schooling you proper
Best there is at what we do, rotten fish heads chopped, sir
Cure your disease, so you'll live long and prosper
Investigate and watch our active soaring flame assembled rott(right) hurr(here)

PhD in will like Schopenhauer
Got our laugh now we work on our glower
Our laundry soap is liquid not powdered

San Diego Two Thousand Eleven

The world's a mess,we've been nailed by the Hammer's blow
But we're a get our change, can't stop our Wonder Flow
Huh? Can't stop our Wonder Flow
(m)Ne-uh-monic'ly retain the dates so you can see the show

On that Brand New Day they'll all cower
Ride that horse this whole world we'll devour
Our princess locked up safe in her tower
Best eatcha fro-yo before it gets sour
The Hammer is My... Life of Crime
The Hammer is My... Life of Crime Spo-ork
The Hammer is My... Life of Crime
The Hammer is My... Got your Mail Spo-ork
The Hammer is My... Life of Crime
The Hammer... Life of Crime Spo-ork

San Diego Two Thousand Eleven

She has opened for performers such as Vienna Teng, Jay Nash, Jim Bianco, Kate Earl, Tom Brousseau and Jason Mraz.

She recently developed a following through YouTube, where she produces music with post-production videos to show her work as an arranger and multi-instrumentalist.
