Having complete independence from the industry and being powered from the beginning by the star brilliance of “Magic” Dave Mussen, the Distorted Penguins have become a household name in the east coast scene. Since Magic Dave’s tragic death in April of 2000, the remaining members of DP have adjusted their line-up in order to keep Dave's message alive. DP has combined power pop, rock, and a horn section to create an energetic and fast-paced style they have deemed “falling rock.”
With a countless number of performances at world-famous rock clubs, festivals, colleges, bars, nightclubs, and community centers, DP has worked feverishly to reach the masses. Because of their versatile style, they have performed with national acts the likes of Blues Traveler, 2 Skinnee J’s, Reel Big Fish, Less Than Jake, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, N.E.R.D, Rahzel, Jimmie's Chicken Shack, Buzz Poets, Violent Femmes, Blue Oyster Cult, Blessid Union of Souls, My Weakday Night, and O.A.R, to name a few.
In the past few years DP has toured nationally as well as hitting regions of the east coast in order to gain new fans and promote their albums in 100% D.I.Y fashion. Keep it real!

Distorted Penguins Lyrics

And you feel like you are on your own
Stormy weather, calm has never settled there
Think your weary life's beyond repair.
If you were blind I'd give you my eyes
Just so you could see one more sunrise
And maybe in that time you could understand.
When it's late at night, and you're all alone
And you feel like you are on your own
Stormy weather, calm has never settled there
Think your weary life's beyond repair.
If you were blind I'd give you my eyes
Just so you could see one more sunrise
And maybe in that time you could understand......
There is a place where ends finally meet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby
There is a place where lost souls always greet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby.
There is a place where ends finally meet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby
There is a place where lost souls always greet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby.
If only I could be more for you
I'm more than willing to
If you would open your heart to me and let go, let go, let go....
There is a place where ends finally meet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby
There is a place where lost souls always greet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby.
There is a place where ends finally meet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby
There is a place where lost souls always greet
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby. Cloud Nine Baby, Cloud Nine Baby....
When it's late at night and your all alone and u feel like you are on, Your own......

When it's late at night, and you're all alone
At a time when darkness surrounds you and there's no one else around
And you feel like you are on your own
And you feel abandoned, unsupported
Stormy weather, calm has never settled there
You're surrounded by chaos, and there's never been a moment of peace in your life
Think your weary life's beyond repair.
You think your life is beyond fixing, and there's no hope left for you
If you were blind I'd give you my eyes
I'm willing to go to great lengths to help you and stand by you
Just so you could see one more sunrise
So that you can see the beauty in the world, and experience a new dawn
And maybe in that time you could understand......
By seeing the world anew, maybe you can find some answers and understanding
There is a place where ends finally meet
There is a world in which all ends will eventually converge
Floating up on Cloud Nine baby
Where everything is euphoric and perfect
There is a place where lost souls always greet
A world in which everyone who feels lost and lonely find solace and comfort
If only I could be more for you
I want to do more for you, to be there for you in any way possible
I'm more than willing to
I'm ready and eager to do anything to help you
If you would open your heart to me and let go, let go, let go....
If you can trust me and open your heart to me, you can let go of all your pain and find peace
Cloud Nine Baby, Cloud Nine Baby....
This Cloud Nine world is where we want to be, where everything is perfect and beautiful
