I Live in a Smoky Mansion
In all things this I try to convey
I’ve lived here since I was a boy
Smoky Mansion my only toy
The surrounding trees my only friends
And the smoky mountains my parents
I stick to my stone laid routine
I upkeep most diligently
Polish every banister and beam
Sort all tomes in the library
Water and trim all topiary
Smoky Mansion lives inside me
If I had some time for myself
I’d repaint the walls and bookshelves
I’d invite you to come and see
But I fear you’d naught want to leave
Any other man would go insane
For the work and the pay they are the same
There's a lot of great tracks that I've definitely played over and over on YouTube here, and a lot I've yet to really sink my teeth into. I fully reserve the right to change my mind after listening to this one in full a few times, but for now, I know that Fire Fire's grim, fatalist tone/lyrics and haunting harmonies have long been a favourite of mine. nazmazh
I can't think of anything more consistently comforting during these trying times than Steam Powered Griaffe's music.
Do yourself a favour and buy this amazing album! Danzavare

Every one of Steam Powered Giraffe's tracks is better than the last. And if you've listened to some of their good hits, you know that's saying a lot. b_megamaths
