Biography

US Pop/Rock band, mostly popular in the 1980s, particularly in Europe. The band was founded in 1982 by singer/songwriter Peter Kingsbery. Originally with 4 members, Molino III and Wright left before the release of the band's second album in 1987. Kingsbery and LaCazio stayed on as a duo for a third album in 1989 but split up in 1990 after their Europe tour. After a 16-year hiatus, Kingsbery and LaCazio reformed Cock Robin in 2006 and released two more albums before LaCazio decided to leave in 2015 and relocate to the US. Cock Robin nowadays is fronted by Peter Kingsbery with Coralie Vuillemin as vocalist during live shows. A new album was released in March 2016 with additional vocals by Agathe Cagin and Julie Wingins. Drummers Marc Jacquemin and Didier Strub also complete the band line-up for live shows. A 5-track EP was released in April 2017 with two new original tracks (one instrumental), 2 covers from Peter Kingsbery's solo albums and 1 cover from Cock Robin's first album, with new arrangements and vocals by Kingsbery and Vuillemin. In September 2021, Cock Robin, consisting now of Kingsbery, Vuillemin and Strub, released a new 14-track album called "Homo Alien." Band settings: Peter Kingsbery: Lead vocals, Keyboards, Bass.

LYRICS

It's not pretty, though it never is
But nothing that's too hard to bear
Pay no attention to the dark circles
They have always been there
Don't mistake me to be broken down
Just because I'm on my knees
I can withstnad most anything
I was born with teeth
Born with teeth

Out the womb into an ugly world I've been thrown
Welcome to the race
Up on two legs before it tumbles on me
I'm not looking for a kind word to keep me going
It's so much better off this way
To be born with teeth

After all that I've seen taken place
Very little has affect
I've been treated like I should have been
At least that's what my mind says

I'll be around when everyone has been satisfied or overcome
It's possible even my happiness will be stumbled on

(Repeat Chorus)

I can got along
I get along without too much advice
Ahh, but if it weren't so hard to make things right
It's gonna be whatever fate will bring
I've managed to look good so far
But there's no use pretending

(Repeat Chorus)
