Mark Langlais & the Gastric Band

Mark Langlais :

is accompanied by an evolving group of musicians named 'The Gastric Band'. Musical sources derive from many genres. The songs are usually narrative tales that speak of characters who are formed from an amalgam of people he has met over time. That said, he always stresses that all songs should be taken with a pinch of salt and that no song relates in any direct way to any particular individual either dead, comatose or living.

Mr Sunshine

Mr Sunshine

Hey there, Mr Sunshine,

Won't you bring your light to me.

You've travelled in your chariot

Across the blue sky,

Over woods and hills and desert sands and seas.

Well, share with me your cup of amber,

Bring a little warmth into my bones.

I miss you so much,

Oh, Mr Sunshine.

Oh I miss so much

What your light brings me,

Oh Mr sun, Sunshine

Mr sun, Sunshine.

Hey there Mr Moonshine,

Bring a drink to me before you start.

I'm shivering and I'm shaking lots all over.

I'm sweating, finding breathing kinda hard.

Share with me your cup of amber,

Breathe a little lust into my bones.

I miss you so much, Mr Moonshine,

I miss the howling wolf that your light brings me,

Mr Moon, Moonshine.

Oh, Mr Moon, Moonshine.

Hey there, Mr Darkness,

You can squeeze a little harder now upon my heart.

The day's end has arrived and I can now turn off the light,

Roll down the silver screen and let the dreaming start.

Share with me your cup of hemlock,

Breathe a little ice into my veins,

'Cause I miss the melancholy moods you bring me.

I miss the fact I'm going all insane.

Yeah, Mr dark Darkness,

Oh, Mr dark Darkness

Well I walk this life in shadow.

Shadow, shadow,

Shadow, shadow.
