Slow and Steady Wins the Race

Pedro the Lion was an indie rock band from Seattle, Washington. Singer-songwriter David Bazan formed the band in 1995 and represented its main creative force, backed by a varying rotation of collaborating musicians. TW Walsh is considered to be the sole official band member besides Bazan. In 2006 Bazan and Walsh split amicably and Pedro the Lion was dissolved as Bazan went solo. Releasing four full-length albums and five EPs over 11 years, the band was known for its first person narrative lyrics with political and religious themes. Pedro The Lion was managed by Bob Andrews at Undertow Music Collective. more »

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

All the way to grandma's house
I stayed on the narrow path
But my brother wandered off
Deep into the woods
Bitten twice by rattle snakes
Tangled up in poison oak
He fell down and broke his legs
Into a great ravine
When I arrived at grandma's house
She made us tea and cake
She asked me where my brother was
I said I don't know and ate
When I get to heaven I'll be greeted warmly
Surrounded by angels
As Jesus takes my hand
I'll receive a mansion
On the river Jordan
And a crown of diamonds
For a race well run
I won't ever lock my doors
I will trust my neighbors
Confident that they deserve
To be there in heaven, too
