ABOUT

Fans have waited a long time for a full-length release from The Carvels NYC. In March 2020 a live recording in front of an audience was planned at The Cutting Room in NYC. Unfortunately, the event was canceled due to lockdown closures of music venues. That did not stop the band! In May 2020 they regrouped onstage, distanced and masked, at the legendary (now empty) venue to record the album which was released o Die Laughing Records in September 2020.

ORIGINAL LYRICS

MY LITTLE TROLL

(Verse 1)

My little troll, you are the one

Letting me know, that I’m not alone

My little troll, I thought there was no hope

I thought nobody was paying attention

But now I’m under your microscope

(Chorus)

How is it you’ve got so much time to spend?

It fascinates me to no end

Chewing me out like bubble gum

Knocking me down like a hit and run

It’s the epitome of irony

When a failure is the target of jealousy

Down, down, down goes the thumb

My little troll you are the one

My little troll you are the one

(Verse 2)

My little troll, you are the first

Letting me know, that I am the worst

My little troll, please come out and play

Nothing like one of your conniptions

to take me out of my boring day

(Repeat Chorus)


LONELY FANTASY

(Verse)

I looked at you, looked at me, looked and then you looked away (2x)

You went off on your own, thought about me later when you were alone

I looked at you, looked at me, looked and then you looked away (2x)

You made mental maps, from the front and oh baby from the back

(Chorus)

I don’t want to be

Your lonely fantasy


NEW NORMAL

(Verse 1)

Let’s make a new normal tonight

I want to stay alive

Welcome to my private stream

Antibodies to the C-19

Come on baby and quarantine with me

(Verse 2)

Let’s make a new normal tonight

Now we’ve finally got the time

First we will recuperate

Post a status update

Not going back to the slave state again

(Chorus 1)

We will make our own vaccine

Practice perfect hygiene

Let me be your COVID queen forever

Yeah come on baby, let’s make a new normal together

(Repeat verse 1)

(Chorus 2/Outro)

We will make our own vaccine

Practice perfect hygiene

Let me be your COVID queen forever

I said we will make our own vaccine

Practice perfect hygiene

Come on baby, let’s quarantine together

Yeah come on baby, let’s make a new normal forever

I said come on baby, let’s make a new normal tonight

I said come on baby, let’s make a new normal tonight


STAY THE FUCK HOME

(Chorus)

Stay the Fuck Home, Stay the Fuck Home

Stay the Fuck Home, Stay the Fuck Home

(Verse 1)

Joggers on the sidewalk taking up space

Breathing their germs right in my face

Asshole behavior is commonplace

We’re all running in a crazy death race

(Verse 2)

If you go out not wearing a mask

There’s gonna be another plot on the death graph

Another case for the hospital staff

Wake the fuck up and do the math

(Repeat Chorus)

Toilet paper hoarders, there’s no excuse

You’re not worth the shit you produce

The population has gotta reduce

People like you ain’t got no use

(spoken: “Make me sick, Brian!”)

(Repeat Chorus out)


DARLING WHERE ARE YOU

(Verse)

You were my darling but something happened, I don’t know what cause I can’t remember last night

I thought of something, thought you was what you wasn’t, you really can’t blame me, but I can blame you

(Chorus)

When I talk to you I see the words coming out of your head but I don’t hear nothing

I look at you and see your eyes looking back at me but I don’t feel nothing

Darling......where are you?

(Repeat verse)

(Repeat chorus)


I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU DO WHAT YOU DO

(Verse 1)

I don't know how you do what you do, When nobody's paying attention to you

Now the sky is a beautiful blue, But you can't see it without a good view

The year you were born, is ancient history, You're not a kid and it ain't no mystery

Work all day from 9 to 5, Paying to keep your stupid dream alive

(Chorus)

I don't know how you do what you do

I don't know how you do what you do

I don't know how you do what you do

Woah…oh

(Verse 2)

I don't know how you do what you do, You're runnin' around with your brain in a stew

Hoping to get that good review, It never happens, but still you push through

Spending your money and all of your time, Don't ya think you're at the end of the line?

Don't ya think that you've had enough? Time to think about giving it up....

(Repeat Chorus)


SAVING YOU FOR LATER

(Verse 1)

Don’t know why I didn’t meet you such a long, long time ago

Hanging out in the same places, knowing all the same people I know

I’m so glad I didn't meet you such a long, long time ago

You would not have liked me then....oh no!

(Chorus)

I wanna thank you....for saving you for later for me

I wanna thank you....for saving you for later for me

(Verse 2)

I know why I didn’t meet you such a long, long time ago

Never been too lucky and I’ve never been too happy you know

I’m so glad I didn’t meet you such a long, long time ago

You’d have been in love with my best friend....oh no!

(Repeat Chorus)

(Outro)

Anything I had you are better, I’m so glad that you saved you for later

Anything I had you are better, I’m so glad that you saved you for later

Saving you for later, saving you for later

Saving you for later, saving you for later

"Stay the Fuck Home"
