The nurse walked in the room And said "hello" to me I asked her for some help I asked her pretty please Her head it nodded "yes" Took out her pad and pen Tomorrow morning I will start a regiment Call up the doctor sing him a song for free Well its so easy now To feel so good for cheap So many choice how Could you not be pleased Responsibility For you but not for me I work so hard that I could use a new routine Call up the doctor sing him a song for free I think I found a cure Its right in front of me The answers everywhere And they know anything Their books are written well And I am overwhelmed I guess I'll go to bed beside an oil well Call up the doctor sing him a song for free

I'm laid out on the front porch On a warm summer night The dead are dancing all around Man those teeth look bright Singing songs that I never heard From maps I never seen I feel my mouth and the tooth is loose At least the blood is clean Sleep walking in my dreams again at night The baby's in soup Well isn't that nice The doctors have you all tied up Under a halogen light I want to wake up and scream But I'm stuck in this dream Taking pills to calm the storm Hitching a ride down stream Sleep walking in my dreams again at night (backwards mumbling) I'm right You're wrong Another chord in a cemetery song All right Dead wrong Another chord in a cemetery song I'm right You're wrong Another chord in a cemetery song All right Dead wrong A tambourine in a cemetery song Sleep walking in my dreams again at night

about

What are dreams and where do they come from? We may not fully understand why our subconscious produces these images for us on a nightly basis, but at least sometimes they provide us with content to use for songwriting, hence Mike Chick’s latest double single, “Call Up The Doctor” / “Sleepwalking”.

Hot off the heels of Chick’s July 2020 release “Beach Wolff” and 2019’s “More Sh*t To End Up In A Landfill II”, “Call Up The Doctor” / “Sleep Walking” was home recorded onto four track cassette using drum machines, acetone organ and hollowbody fuzz bass, Chick (also of Yawn Mower) stitches together stories of various dreams that had him hoping the alarm clock would soon sound. The results will make you want to both dance and pull the covers over your head. All releases mentioned are on Mint 400 Records.

Additional recording was handled by William Bourke and mixing completed by Patrick Noon at eightsixteen studios. Mastering was mastered by Azimuth Mastering. The artwork was created by Richie Brown.

Maybe take some time out of your day to listen to Mike Chick’s music on all major streaming platforms.
