Oxford Perry Project

Two Family Guys with not nearly enough time on their hands.

We're Jeff Oxford & Tim Perrythe Oxford-Perry Project a couple of aspiring Grand Rapids, Michigan songwriters. Tim is the word guy and Jeff cranks out the music and studio production. We're both family guys, and for the most part our music has its origins in the maelstrom that is family life in the 21st century. The Basement Bytes is actually a collection of songwriting demos. We're not really interested in being performers, per se and would be quite content to let others record our material. In the meantime, The Basement Bytes stands as our musical kick-at-the-cat. Acoustically, basements aren't exactly the perfect place to record. But for creating, jamming and storytelling, they do just fine. We are pleased to present this home-built, computer-recorded, cellar-chilled musical chronicle for your listening pleasure. We hope you enjoy The Basement Bytes.

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Some might search for diamonds 
(but get a….) Life full of rocks.
Some gaze at the ocean, 
(but) never leave the dock.
Some might toil their whole lives through
And never rise a notch.
Work with peers for 40 years
(And) never get a watch.

Chorus 1:
But if someone loves you heart and soul
And you love back just as much.
When everything is said and done,
Isn’t that enough?

Verse 2:
From a mansion on the waterfront
To a broke down double-wide.
Home is where we live and love
Find a place to hide.
Instead of high accomplishments
Most try to fill their cups.
Struggle to the day’s last light
And not screw up too much.

Chorus 1:
But if someone loves you heart and soul
And you love back just as much.
When everything is said and done,
Isn’t that enough?

Verse 3 (or bridge):
Most will never make their way
Into the history books.
Or have the kind of talents
That make the whole world look.
‘Cause hidden from the public eye 
Are feats of strength and brawn.
It’s within our own circles 
That the lines are clearly drawn.


Chorus 1:
‘Cause if someone loves you heart and soul
And you love back just as much.
When everything is said and done,
Isn’t that enough?
