Name: Pool Slick
Duration: P00H02M48S
Description: This is a down-to-earth soul song you can dance to, one with some funk. It's an interesting mix of street hardness and instrumentation. Someone who needs to work things out considers an opportunity of playing a pool shark. From hard grooves to improv, from desperation to hope, this song spans different realms. It is entirely inspired by the work of James Brown.

lyrics

Pool Slick

Out on a street,
You need to hustle
Money you need
No muss no fuss, so...

Run it down
Watch out in this town
Think you're pool slick?
Yeah, bullets can sure stick.

You think you're slick?
Play pool with the shark.
If you try to run some sh...
He might make you a mark.

Not out on a lark
You're in with a shark
Be a loser or a winner
Or the worm's dinner

Run your thing
Good luck if you deserve it
Watch out for shark attack!
You think you're pool slick

Allegory of the Cave
by Caveman Ego

The rather original sounding compositions benefit from true instrumental and vocal skill. I found remarkable their combining of parts and counterparts, sometimes in harmony. Check out "Hazy Ways"! Cosmic Protocol
