I feel it coming I know the end is near My eyes are cloudy Then it’s raining tears I kinda need ya I kinda need ya I kinda need ya bad Though we quarrel Maybe cuss and fight When I’m with you Baby it’s alright I kinda need ya I kinda need ya I kinda need ya bad

How are you always on my mind Thought I left you far behind Bleached blonde trying to make nice Found yourself in your own device Spiral eye roll Teen idol Spiral eye roll Homicidal Spiral eye roll Will that be all? The new you is the old me Unsocial insecurity When did you decide to show your face Found yourself in my headspace Spiral eye roll Teen idol Spiral eye roll Homicidal Spiral eye roll Will that be all? You never fell for me Can’t ever tell it to me You never fell for me

I’m leaving uneven Every time I look I’m going blind Prism spots and flashing lights You want it I’ll retrieve it You think it I’ll conceive it You say it I’ll believe it all I’m vying outlying Bitter sweet nothing symphony Amplified verbs a cacophony You want it I’ll retrieve it You think it I’ll conceive it You say it I’ll believe it all We stole a million kisses that we thought were ours We put them back in place underneath the stars

about

The prolific and talented J. Waylon just might be the most underappreciated songwriter in the modern power pop/punk world. With his one-man-band Friends of Cesar Romero, he has managed to create a body of work that's astounding in terms of both quantity and quality. He produces so much amazing music (five releases last year alone!) that you could be forgiven for not managing to keep up. If you're ever looking for a good way to spend some money, hop on over to the FoCR Bandcamp and dig into a discography that's sitting at 40 titles and growing. The band's latest release, Spiral Eye Roll, is installment #34 in J. Waylon's Doomed Babe Series. Depending on the particular release or individual track, the Friends of Cesar Romero sound can range from pop-punk to power pop to garage rock to classic '60s style guitar pop. Spiral Eye Roll leans more pop-punk, and it's a truly perfect execution of the genre. It delivers three tracks in four minutes. The sound is tight, punchy, and catchy, with lyrics that find J. Waylon wearing his heart on his sleeve. This, my friends, is poppy punk rock at its very best. If you're a regular reader of this blog and not yet a Friends of Cesar Romero fan, that needs to be rectified as soon as possible!
Lord Rutledge/Faster Louder Blog

Accessible, crisp and scrappy powerpop and pop punk hits that are upbeat and super catchy. J. Waylon, who is the kind of prolific and consistent songwriter that simultaneously fills you with envy and gratefulness, sounds particularly inspired on this one. The Spiral Eye Roll single is 5 minutes of pop punk bliss.
