. . . Blood . . . 

I'll be your Blood Brother

By your side through thick and thin
I'll be your Blood Brother
Just as long as I don't have to bloody
My hands

Bar rooms sure have a funny way
Of bringing loyalty out in a man
Buy a drink and tell a joke
And buddy you've got you a friend
But keep a good eye upon that friend
Because he really doesn't give two hoots
And don't say anything about his Mom
His girlfriend or his army boots

I'll be your Blood Brother
By your side through thick and thin
I'll be your Blood Brother
Just as long as I don't have to bloody
My hands

Walked into an auto-mo-showroom
I need some wheels but got no money to spend
When a guy with an ugly tie
Walks out and acts like he's my long-lost friend
I said hey Buddy I've a purpose here
And if you please I will accomplish my goal
So don't you slap me on the back again
Cause if you do I might just lose my control

I'll be your Blood Brother
By your side through thick and thin
I'll be your Blood Brother
Just as long as I don't have to bloody
My hands

So please be careful when you meet someone
Who'll make a promise at the drop of a hat
And don't provide them with encouragement
You will regret the day you offered him that
Cause everybody needs some empathy
But just how willing
And how far will they go
To really help you when the chips are down
Can they be trusted half as far as you throw them

I'll be your Blood Brother
By your side through thick and thin
I'll be your Blood Brother
Just as long as I don't have to bloody
My hands

Blood . . .

. . . (and blood products)donations


(from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plateletpheresis)
". . . (more accurately called thrombocytapheresis or thrombapheresis, though these names are rarely used) is the process of collecting thrombocytes, more commonly called platelets, a component of blood involved in blood clotting. The term specifically refers to the method of collecting the platelets, which is performed by a device used in blood donation that separates the platelets and returns other portions of the blood to the donor. Platelet transfusion can be a life-saving procedure in preventing or treating serious complications from bleeding and hemorrhage in patients who have disorders manifesting as thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) or platelet dysfunction. This process may also be used therapeutically to treat disorders resulting in extraordinarily high platelet counts such as essential thrombocytosis. . ."

History . . .

. . . With members Jay (guitar/vocals), Jeff (drums)[later replaced by David], Greg (sax/vocals) and myself (keyboard/vocals), we undertook a string of private affairs and wedding receptions.  Soon we decided to dedicate ourselves to the pursuit of a regular engagement, most desirably at a nightclub.  Our one weak point however in pursuit of this lofty goal was our repertoire.  Our rehearsals were few and far between.  In fact, I now cannot remember an actual rehearsal with this incarnation of 'Ful Treatment.' To our chagrin,  and self-deceiving disbelief, club owners actually wanted the bands they hired to play the current top-forty popular favorites to which the audience could dance.  We, in our haughty laziness (or was it lazy haughtiness?) refused to do that.  In fact we simply continued to play as much of our uptempo (and preferably 'newer') material instead of succumbing to the current trend of disco music brought about by the recent resurgent popularity of the Bee Gees thanks to the film Saturday Night Fever.  In our defense, we did learn a new number or two, just simply not enough to market ourselves as a top-forty act. Another improvement that we opted not to pursue was the hiring of a fifth band member to play the bass guitar, a definite enhancement to a combo's authenticity when reproducing dance music (as well as rock music in general), and mainly for the reason that it would have resulted in another party with whom to share the money.  .  .

Blood Brother
(OHO rehearsal recording January 30, 2015)

I'll be your Blood Brother

By your side through thick and thin

I'll be your Blood Brother

Just as long as I don't have to bloody

My hands 

Bar rooms sure have a funny way

Of bringing loyalty out in a man

Buy a drink and tell a joke

And buddy you've got you a friend

But keep a good eye upon that friend

Because he really doesn't give two hoots

And don't say anything about his Mom

His girlfriend or his army boots

I'll be your Blood Brother

By your side through thick and thin

I'll be your Blood Brother

Just as long as I don't have to bloody

My hands 

Walked into an auto-mo-showroom

I need some wheels but got no money to spend

When a guy with an ugly tie

Walks out and acts like he's my long-lost friend

I said hey Buddy I've a purpose here

And if you please I will accomplish my goal

So don't you slap me on the back again

Cause if you do I might just lose my control

I'll be your Blood Brother

By your side through thick and thin

I'll be your Blood Brother

Just as long as I don't have to bloody

So please be careful when you meet someone

Who'll make a promise at the drop of a hat

And don't provide them with encouragement

You will regret the day you offered him that

Cause everybody needs some empathy

But just how willing

And how far will they go

To really help you when the chips are down

Can they be trusted half as far as you throw them

I'll be your Blood Brother

I'll be your Blood Brother

Dot On Your Door . . .

You’re living your ninth life time is running out
The blood of the lamb has dried and lost its clout
If you show no mercy, no mercy will be your
You’re dated and done for the dot’s on your door

On day one they marked you, put you on the list
Embroidered a burning red letter on your bib
You move with caution, the trap’s laced with lure
You’re dated and done, there’s a dot on your door

Cowards die a thousand times, the brave die only once
If ignorance is bliss, may your joy be out to lunch
If you were meant to hang in life then you will never drown
Dodging the left, the right one brings you to the ground

You’re using the right words, getting the response
Newton was right, you’re life’s a renaissance
Your impedimenta pile up on the floor
You’re locked in this room, There’s a dot on your door

Kissing your mother, digging in the dirt
Hoping something of your life will take root and give birth
The vine seeks the light, branches reaching through the clouds
Where love will prune and crown you, relieve you of your shroud
