    Story Behind the Song
    Jewelry Box is a wonderful recollection of rampant substance abuse:alcohol,pills,and cigarettes(okay,maybe a syringe came into play,kinda fuzzy on the details)combined with repeated viewings of Meredith Baxter-Birney in "My Breast" on Lifetime(a true cinematic masterpiece...). It took as long to record as it took to play(as evidenced by the sometimes spotty rythmn section's performance).Kudzai Kasambira's production skills were the only thing capable of reigning in the chaos and the glory of the MOSES GUN.The lyrics?Written in a nondescript crackhouse in west Chicago(where inspiration comes in many forms:powder, liquid and rock).Special thanks to all those who believe in the power of Gyeth,God of GOAT LEGS(What did you expect from these black brothers,sending shout outs,rollin'on dubs,and flossin'ice?We dont get down like that).This is what ye hath wrought,Amerika. We are the bastard children of "Good Times" mom Florida Evans and Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford...

    Lyrics
    When all your work is done
    you go to one
    who hides the sun

    Of all your waking dreams
    You follow one
    It's left undone

    Small
    in all but grace
    A pirouette
    your smiling face

    When I was all torn down
    A solace came
    ...one golden sound.

    Your house of wood and brown
    The key is turned and spinning round

    Small
    in all but grace
    A pirouette
    your smiling face

    (ok....right here is where we follow every rock cliché we've ever learned and insert a guitar solo here,complete with squealing, melodic,high end notes to specifically bulid momentum and highten the mood...don't be scared,we'll walk you through it)

    When I was all torn down
    A solace came.
    One golden sound.
    Of all your waking dreams
    You follow one
    It's left undone

    Small
    in all but grace
    A pirouette
    your smiling face.
