Tin Horn 04:23
There's a little tin horn, oh oh oh oh oh and it plays just for me, there's a little tin horn, oh oh oh oh oh and it plays constantly I hear it, so softly, it makes me crazy but I know it's alright I feel it, sharp silver, it fill the silence but I know I'm alive Birds singing, can't hear the bells ringing Angels dance, on a pin stuck right in to my ear Didn't think it before, but I think it today it's easy to fall, when you're getting carried away There's a little angel, oh oh oh oh oh and it sings just for me There's a little angel, oh oh oh oh oh and it sings constantly I hear it, so closely, I can't see you 'cause the sky is too bright there's singing and dancing, I can't see you 'cause the sky is too bright Birds singing, can't hear the bells ringing Angels dance, on a pin stuck right in to my ear Didn't think it before, but I think it today it's easy to fall, when you're getting carried away Didn't think it before, but I think it today it's easy to fall, when you're getting carried away

Little Boat 04:24
I'd like to crawl inside a little boat paddle till I cannot see the shore the sun beats down, but I'll have my parasol the rain beats down, but I'll have my parasol standing there with your mysterious frown Mona Lisa turned upside down all our yesterdays were once tomorrows with you and me standing in the middle oh it's never like you think its gonna be (4x) things have kinda gotten away from me I quit my job and moved back to the sea I aint no clown but I loves the circus so settle down and eat your peanuts son we'll dance and sing about those abstract things where spoken words always fail we'll come together again when I finally have to leave this world chop me up and feed me to the birds a cloud of starlings haunt the sky outside your window a blue crow cries it's never like you think its gonna be

Hawaii 06:15
I used to have plans and places to be I used to pick fights with whoever I'd meet lived my life like a men's magazine made people run and dance how I pleased all I was got washed out to sea when your eye washed over me now I don't make plans or have places to be don't pick no fights just stare at the beach on dry land I crawl to my feet take my hand Hawaii I write on my hand the things I'm to do get coffee and milk and flowers for you the seabirds they cry and I'll feel the same way you shade your eye and look and look at the waves pull the blanket of your flowers over pull the blanket of your flowers over pull the blanket of your flowers over pull the blanket of your ocean over my shoulder on dry land I crawl to my feet take my hand Hawaii

Twinkle twinkle little star you can't play poker in a house of cards there's a sky in my eye and its on fire I wish I may I wish I might wish I had the mind to do what's right there's a sky in my eye and its on fire take a match to a paper doll never come back, home no more a fiddle bow on a rusty saw tells the sad sad story of it all If less is more, then I have it all I'll fold it up and give it to you when angels ring you have to take the call if only they'd tell me where you are draw a line in my brain from a butterfly to a hurricane there's a sky in my eye and its on fire ash to dust and hell to pay let the wind carry me away there's a sky in my eye and its on fire

Dangle Tango 04:35
I'm standing on a block of ice waiting for it to slowly melt I thought I'd take my own advice but here I'm talking to myself I never ever learned to dance the cha cha or a slow tango but I bet she's learn in France with a man she does not know la la la la .... angels are circling my head flying sweetly round and round and I feel like ol' King Kong as I try to swat them down the only thing she left behind was loneliness a dispair wrapped up in a tiny note with a lock of curly hair if this is the way it's going to be then I don't wanna be me anymore if this is the way it has to be then I don't have to be.... sometimes I really really want to sometimes I really really don't sometimes I forget what I could do sometimes my feet are really cold sometimes I really really want to sometimes I really really don't sometimes I forget what I should do this time my feet are really cold if this is the way it's going to be then I don't wanna be me anymore if this is the way it has to be then I don't have to be....

Oh My God 04:13
It doesn't matter what you've done before climb upon the ladder this ballon is about to take off when your world is upside down and your love has gone enjoy the silent silver sound of the moon's most intimate song one more step before I blow away one more step before I blow away Oh my God its beautiful up and away we go Oh my God its beautiful but you are far below one more step before I blow away one more step before I blow away Oh my God its beautiful up and away we go Oh my God its beautiful but you are far below

Broken Land 04:44
swallows fly, still have to land they touch the ground on broken land moved west Canarsie Indian never to come back again I wonder will I be like them or bide my time and wait till when you and me will take our time so drink up the holiday wine I'll take yours, and you can take mine don't care what the're saying step over the river and reach out your hand pull me across to broken land step over the river and reach out your hand pull me across to broken land are dreams are like diamonds buried in the sand spread on the shores of broken land are dreams are like the diamonds buried in the sand spread on the shores of Coney Island

about

Kotorino Brooklyn, New York

WNYC says:
…Kotorino has one of the most unique and unusual sounds of any band, ever. Even in a music scene saturated with “chamber-pop” bands and odd instrumentation, Kotorino stands out with its use of all variety of winds, strings, and other musical gadgetry. The music itself is omnivorous in its source material, quite pretty, and downright haunting ... more
