Secret Sebtic Santa Vlady 2024-01-01 | A tribute to our Prince of Darkness. Silly lyrics below. Here at hardware jams we have lots of charactersSome bring dark some bring light and the admins they take of usOne we call the Prince of Darkness in the most loving way He plays the cello, it ain’t mellow, makes the day turn greyHe’s our Sebtic Smile with his Lyra and keytar And his jams will make you smile near and afar He doesn’t like SoundCloud links they get him all flusteredBut he’s still a gracious host, he brings beers and some mustard Sebtic Smile - Prince of Darkness always smiling Sebtic Smile - In his shed where he brings the darkness Sebtic Smile - In the park with his evil maskSebtic Smile - Even when traveling, he’s up to the taskSebtic Smile - Prince of Darkness always smiling Sebtic Smile - In his shed where he brings the darkness Sebtic Smile - In the park with his evil maskSebtic Smile - Even when traveling, he’s up to the taskHe does silly shit like Seb on the ShelfHe’s dark, funny and goofy just by being himselfHis jams are always epic and full of improvisation Makes you question your methods and try it in your next sessionBut then you realize there is only one Prince of DarknessAnd you should not try to make your jams in his likenessAfter all hardware jams is a place to be yourself And there can only ever be one Seb on the ShelfSebtic Smile - Prince of Darkness always smiling Sebtic Smile - In his shed where he brings the darkness Sebtic Smile - In the park with his evil maskSebtic Smile - Even when traveling, he’s up to the taskSebtic Smile - Prince of Darkness always smiling Sebtic Smile - In his shed where he brings the darkness Sebtic Smile - In the park with his evil maskSebtic Smile - Even when traveling, he’s up to the task
