lyrics

i could've been a preacher
i could've been a punk singer
i could've been a preacher
i could've been a punk singer
in the end i'm sure i would have drowned
i just couldn't make those sounds

i could've been a preacher
i could've been a punk singer . . .
in the end i'm sure i would have drowned
i wasn't ready for those sounds

could've gone to the party
could've been an egg nog spiker
could've gone to the party
could've been someone else
yes, i could've been someone else
somethin' other than myself

i could've been a preacher . . .

i could've been a preacher
i could've been a punk singer . . .
and i'm changin' my colors
i'm changin' my colors

i could've been a preacher
i could've been a punk singer . . .
used to be a shapeshifter
now i'm just a fencesitter

i could've been a preacher
i could've been a punk singer . . .
i could be someone else
yeah and i might even become myself . . .

about

Troy Meadows New Jersey

Hi all,

I’ve been recording as “Troy Meadows” for something like fifteen years. My music has received airplay from radio stations like WMBR, WITR, WMFO, WNTE, KAOS, WTUL, KZSU, WUOG, XPN, WMPG, WTSR, and KALX.

I am a PROUD HOME RECORDER.

My latest release, A Faith Observed, is an album about wrestling with God. It's my clumsy masterpiece. As you will hear, every note is sincere.
