Ruby Soho: The story of my split personalites

So pretty much I have two personalities

1. Ruby Martha Koomen
Loves her family
Rose farmer
Favorite color red
Favourite drink H20
Twin/sister/daughter/niece/cousin/friend
Studies politics/ history/ journalism at uni
Wants to save the world
etc etc etc

2. Ruby Soho
Loose unit
Destination unknown
Rock and roller
Hates authority
Douche bags on power trips
Favourite drink Beer
Music is religion


Personally I like a mix of the two... but it is a love/ hate relationship for me to.

Ruby Soho became established after I heard "Ruby Soho" by my favorite band Rancid.
I invented her so I could cope with my anger and ADD issues. Lol. I think it has been beneficial for my family in friends as I only put Ruby Soho on when fellow punk rockers are around.

I hope one day I get to meet the real her... she sounds totally rad.




"Ruby Soho"


 Echoes of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
havin' a party up next door but i'm sittin here all alone
two lovers in the bedroom and the other starts to shout
all i got is this blank stare and that don't carry no clout at all

 [Chorus]
Destination unknown
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho[x2]
He's singin and she's there to lend a hand
he's seen his name on the marquee but she will never understand
once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye
embraces with a warm gesture it's time, time to say goodbye 

[Chorus]

Ruby's heart ain't beatin cause she knows the feelin' is gone
she's not the only one who knew there's somethin' wrong
her lover's in the distance as she wipes a tear from her eye
ruby's fading out, she disappears, it's time, time to say goodbye

[Chorus]

Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
Ruby ruby ruby ruby sohoRuby ruby ruby ruby soho
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
Destination unknown (Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho)
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho[x2] 




If they ever come to Melbourne again that'll be the best day of my life.
I heard that they will never come here because Brodie broke Tim's heart so bad.  
Love hurts so bad... fair call I say. I'll go find them.

Long live Rancid
