she'll always have another lover living undercover if only for the night sifting through the wreckage of her disconnected day it's just an ordinary lie and a matter of time before she'll stray wanton memories of lives she's left behind only serve to sever ties that want to bind now silence is a virtue..............of her disconnected day it's just an ordinary lie and a matter of time before she'll stray written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

only lonely 02:05
oh are you sitting down? things have changed since you’ve been around it’s only lonely why’d you come around here today? the only song that’s left to play is only lonely you used to be right outside my door now the only thing for sure is….we will fly but only in a dream written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

watch yourself now pretty soon it’ll all be over watch yourself now in a way it’s just begun and if you ever find yourself out of the game and realize you only have yourself to blame i just might be right there to help you ease your pain until you start over again amy amy, why don’t you lie your head down tonight? oh…amy amy, your self destruction gives us such a fright written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

once in a while we’d sit in trees and capture these moments that dare not defile the twisted contrast of our torments what will become of me? what in the world will become of me? and how does it always come to this even tipped in my favor for a fleeting 10 year glimpse that somehow time forgets till it’s over time will tame us all written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

eye to eye 03:33
people come and go on many paths we’ll never know guess that’s sometimes why we don’t see eye to eye cross the road and up the street is a place where hearts could meet if you keep an open mind you just might see eye to eye tides flow minds blow hearts swell when you find yourself (eye to eye) people come and go on many paths we’ll never know some are high and some are low cross the road and up the street is a place where hearts could meet if you keep an open mind you just might see tides flow minds blow sparks wake the sleep state hearts align in perfect time when you come to then you’ll find your (self) written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

lanterna blu 05:41
An angry dawn has dragged me down on foreign ground My discontent won’t wane From dizzy thoughts I cannot see past battles fought in misery I hear ‘Lanterna Blu’ My twisted search leads me far away from all that’s safe This stranger’s come to call Down dead end streets in dead of night my darkest hopes have taken flight I see ‘Lanterna Blu’ Clinging stares past curtains red and shoulders bare Sit hungry empty eyes In velvet rooms through crimson lies they sell their souls in stockinged thighs I’ve been tricked again will you love me (Mi amer?) love me forever (Mi ama per sempre) love me now and never leave (Mi ama adesso e non lasciare mai) Tripping down the alleyways off empty streets and in a daze I’m drowning on dry land This pack of thieves of empty souls entertain no answer told A shakedown sure at hand A stranger’s smile is on my lips but all the while The silence steels my heart Deceiving words by azure light I leave the pack without a fight And dread ‘Lanterna Blu’ written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

darkness falls on Dawn it’s a run on humanity the lottery ticket’s been traced back to those with caretakers stripped of all sanity even with high flying caps in the air the fate’s unavoidable innocence shattered is met with a stare and cries become deafened by vanity and every time you speak his mind he just picks you up puts you down rests his weight on a broken wing there will be no more safe and sound than a lost shoe in a hurricane tip toe slow is no way to grow up when your light shines so bright from the inside out let it cut at the night of him feeding you blame and insidious shame and it’s all the same everywhere just hang on till the morning light sees you through when you wake then he can’t pick you up put you down rest his weight on a broken wing there will be only safe and sound written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

sundown 04:35
all this energy – all this energy is slipping away there’s something on my mind that’s stealing time away from me sometimes i feel i can’t go on when the sun is going down all i love and all i’ve known is drifting slowly….away sitting on the edge of the night looking back it doesn’t seem right there’s so much more it’s written at the end of a line been slipping in and out of time and thinking only now i feel i can’t go on cause the sun is going down all i love and all i’ve known is drifting slowly….away written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

she had a wannabe heart off beat and out of time a wannabe heart playin’ hide and seek all the while if you wanna play love then play love if you wanna say love then say love with your wannabe heart wine kissed he’s talkin’ through the vine slow bliss he’s taken by her smile if you wanna play love we’ll play love if you wanna say love we’ll say love with our wannabe hearts in time she’d fly with wide open wings and learn to soar above the endless sea of broken beings written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

cut 04:03
she sits alone and tries to find another way to let out all the things she knows she needs to say and as she starts to feel the ticking of the clock this time she knows the hands of time she cannot stop to find her way it’s everything she wants it’s everything she needs everything inside of her that feels so real it’s everything she sees it’s everything she’s got deep down inside she’s pushed away and cut that’s bleeding now…. by lighted lamp in darkened hour she starts to pray to let out all the things she thought she’d never say and as the dark and timeless hour passes by she feels her dark and twisted self begin to die she’s found her way it’s everything she wants it’s everything she needs everything inside of her that feels so real it’s everything she sees it’s everything she’s got deep down inside she’s pushed away and cut that’s bleeding now…. written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

this time 02:56
i see you clearly now you’ve clearly up and gone all that time together can you tell me what went wrong? the tired look on your face kinda says it all every time we’d try to run we’d only trip and fall we’ve both been here before a thousand times or more you’re starin’ straight at that door i’d better believe it this time the hope that we’d had to try and get it right left long before you did why couldn’t i see the light? she said…i’m gonna walk right out that door you’d better believe it i can’t take this anymore you’d better believe it this time written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

your powdered sugar kisses are sweet tonight but in the morning when you run away i check the lot for love but all i found are two torn up tickets and a yesterday ali try your luck today down around corner across the way i know i'll find you nearly every day playing ring toss with a heavy heart and fingers crossed that you'll win big today ali try your luck today written by steven d. pizzuto ASCAP 2018 JOBYCATMUSIC

Album review by Frank De Blase

The Beaumonts - 'lanterna blu'

The Beaumonts kick off "lanterna blu" with a quasi-bossa nova backbeat, reminiscent of Paul Weller's postmodern lounge outfit The Style Council. But it isn't a ploy to simply reel the listener into their comfort zone, because they do it again with the second track...and the third. The Beaumonts' frontman Steve Pizzuto also holds down the bottom end in the Ren and Stimpy-meets-Madness band that is 5Head. But don't expect the silliness and the augmented ska.

"lanterna blu" is the twilight between melancholy and downright maudlin. It is layered, lovely, and lush, with the hint of inclemency looming just overhead. The album was mixed by four-time Neko Case producer Darryl Neudorf, who adheres well to the ethereal undertones and mood BTW, do I hear a 1966 Bassman in there?
