Three Summer Singles 🎶

Bad Apple

"Bad Apple" is an original song by singer/songwriter, Grace Piper Fields, and produced by Max Dory. Layered harmonies and poetic storytelling draw the listener into a tale where looks can be deceiving. In the studio, every sound became an instrument from the drumming of nails on the body of a guitar to vocal riffs. Enchanted with creativity, "Bad Apple" warns of a dragon disguised as a prince.

Bad Apple

By Grace Piper Fields 

You flew in like a fiery storm

Clawed at my door that fateful morn

You painted yourself as a prince

That portrait’s faded since

Gave you a chance in spite of doubt 

You said the world had shut you out

You thought I was under your spell

I guess it’s hard to tell 

Demons, demons

Follow me into my dreams

You were the dragon burning up everything

I threw you out of my tower

When the apple started to sour

In my gown and crown I slay

The dragon fly, fly away

You offered me a rose with thorns

But couldn’t hide your twisted horns

You don’t believe in true love’s kiss

You say love’s just a myth

You were a monster in disguise 

So many lies behind those eyes 

While I spin sorrow into gold

Your tactics just grow old

Demons, demons

Follow me into my dreams

You were the dragon burning up everything

I threw you out of my tower

When the apple started to sour

In my gown and crown I slay

The dragon fly, fly away (way, way, way)

If you mistook me for a damsel

That’s your first mistake 

I’m the queen of this castle 

that you can’t overtake

With your reign of fire to tear me down 

I had to stand my ground  

Oh demons, demons 

Follow me into my dreams

You were the dragon

Burning up everything (burning up everything)

I threw you out of my tower 

When the apple started to sour 

In my gown and crown I slay

The dragon fly, fly away (ooh)

Fly away (bad apple, you’re a bad apple)

Fly away (ohh) 

Demons, demons

Follow me

Gatsby’s House

By Grace Piper Fields

Featuring Max Dory on trumpet

Hmm

I know, I know we’re in a madhouse

Who let, who let, who let the cats out, ooo

I tried to put names to the faces 

But don’t look now they’re breaking vases, ooo

Dancin’ on the dark side of the moon

Romancin’ on these summer nights in June 

Escapin’ to where garden statues roam

Swingin’ to the party’s metronome

In Gatsby’s house at 12 o’clock

Where the night speaks easy and walls can talk 

In Gatsby’s house, let’s rock, let’s rock

Come on, come on strut like a peacock 

Ya know, ya know life is a cakewalk, ooo

I’m throwin’ in all of my aces 

For just one more of your embraces, ooo

Dancin’ on the dark side of the moon

Romancin’ on these summer nights in June 

Escapin’ to where garden statues roam

Swingin’ to the party’s metronome

In Gatsby’s house at 12 o’clock

Where the night speaks easy and walls can talk 

In Gatsby’s house, let’s rock, let’s rock

Just like a line from a novel

I was within and without,

 simultaneously enchanted and repelled 

by the inexhaustible variety of life 

In Gatsby’s house at 12 o’clock

Where the night speaks easy and walls can talk 

In Gatsby’s house, ooo 

Hmm


Sweet Like Butterscotch

This upbeat song tells the fateful tale of a summer fling. Written by singer/songwriter Grace Piper Fields and produced by Max Dory, "Sweet Like Butterscotch" will have you turning the music up a notch because love is so sweet and a little like a bee sting...

Sweet Like Butterscotch

By Grace Piper Fields

Sweet like butterscotch 

A little like a bee sting

Turn the music up a notch

Smile when my phone rings

Love so sweet

And I like the taste 

My honey funny bumblebee

I love how you love to love me 

Kiss me under willow trees 

Swaying in the Sunday breeze 

Emerald eyes, so carefree 

Fall head over heels with me

Your words are my cup of tea 

Passion fruit hyperbole 

Sweet like butterscotch 

A little like a bee sting

Turn the music up a notch

Smile when my phone rings

Love so sweet

And I like the taste 

It’s like riding a bike with no handlebars

Running blindfolded under the stars

One shoe untied

But it won’t break my stride

Because this is where the wild things are

You were just my summer fling 

Pollinated words that sting 

Uncertain guarantees 

When you mess with honey bees 

Something like a fever dream 

One summer night I set you free

Sweet craving in disguise 

Said our butterscotch goodbyes 

Sweet like butterscotch 

A little like a bee sting

Turn the music up a notch

Smile when my phone rings

Love so sweet

And I like the taste 

“Sweet Like Butterscotch” was featured on the GRAMMY U playlist, "Sleigh All Day.”
