SAN JACINTO DEATH ROW PRISON BAND
written by SERENE DOMINIC
I’m a habitual liar,
Although that’s not strictly true
There’s never been a girl named Hope
From Manhattan to Moshulu
I’ll tell you what her name is
Maybe in a song or two
No one’s ever planned this federal reprimand
San Jacinto Death Row Prison Band
Since I crossed paths with that woman
Oh I’ve been doing time I had everything to live for
Now I wouldn’t really mind Dying to be over
Waiting for my flesh to fry
No one’s ever planned this federal reprimand
San Jacinto Death Row Prison Band
We had a guy, was named Barone
Blew tenor sax and slide trombone
But they gave him the hot seat
Cause the governor never phoned
We lost our featured soloist
To solitary confinement
So now here we stand
By unpopular demand San Jacinto Death Row Prison Band

You're Gonna Know All About Me
written and performed by Serene Dominic
I'm gonna take this town by storm
Sure as you're born
You're Gonna Know All About Me
I'm gonna set the world on its ear
No stereo here
You're Gonna Know All About Me
The hard part of change is saying goodbye
oh but I'm gonna write you everyday
Til you come back to me and stay
Then you're gonna see a brand new me
You're gonna hear all about me
"My God he is the shiniest star that's made it this far
You're gonna hear all about me
There’ll be time one day for you and I
All I ask is that we wait before we pro-create
If I don't make her my wife
Darkness and trouble take over my life
I'm gonna struggle and strive
Darkness and trouble take over my life
If I don't make her my wife
Darkness and trouble take over my life
Oh baby... have faith in me...
You're gonna hear me on the radio, everywhere you go
I'm gonna watch over you darling
I'll spy you from every magazine stand from here to Iceland
I'm gonna watch over you darling
There'll be time someday for you and I
They're gonna know about you too
Coz I'll be right beside of you
If I don't make her my wife
Darkness and trouble take over my life
I'm gonna struggle and strive
Darkness and trouble take over my life
If I don't make her my wife
Darkness and trouble take over my life

Down to the Ravine
From the upcoming musical and album "Dark Lullaby"
written by Serene Dominic
There comes a time when every man decides what is wrong or right
And now that time has come for me
If I can't be the man I want to be
I'll be the man I've gotta be
And there is a line that every man crosses when he cuts his losses
Or when he just walks free
If I can't find the truth I wanna see
I'll take my troubles down
Down to the ravine
Down to the ravine where I'll hide these haunted bones
Down to the ravine, weigh them down with sticks and stones
I know I'll never get these hands clean
So I'll take my troubles down, down to the ravine

San Jacinto Prison Band Phoenix, Arizona
When San Jacinto Prison Warden William Crosley realized the Scared Witless program his facility introduced was not deterring kids from pursuing a life of crime and in fact was creating new felons daily. To that he formed the San Jacinto Death Row Prison Band. "Every last one of the musicians is one overturned sentence from frying in a strapping chair," said Crosley diplomatically. ... more
