Get Out Alive

get out alive

you know what you gotta do
get out alive

call them but no one's there
look up into the air
they're everywhere you can see
they're people like you and me

devils who comb the streets
looking for crooked beats
watch how they move their feet
watch how they move their feet

get out alive

devils who know control
dealt with a broken nose
but they don't pick the fights
they don't dim the lights

what you're saying you're gonna see
what you're giving is what you get
but you don't know it yet
you don't know it yet

get out alive

Artist Details

Carey Ott

I made a vow that I would never write another artist bio. The money is macaroni and cheese money. The artists always complain: "I didn't say that" or "Who wrote this garbage about me" or “Could you pass me that red pen?” As author, you sign your name to your writing and then watch as the record companies "mistakenly" leave the name off. Bottom line, it's not dignified work. So I took my vow. Never again. And I didn't write one for over a year. And then, last week, Carey Ott's Lucid Dream CD came across my desk. This is the bio I’m writing because I have to.
