18 With My Family

Rhubarb Orc. 19.53 Rev

I'm gonna steal some bedsheets
From an amputee
I'm gonna mount em on a canvas
In the middle of the gallery
I'm gonna tell everybody it was painted by a chimpanzee
But just between you me
Here at the cultural low water mark
If it's fraud or art
They'll pay you to believe

I'm gonna take five young dudes
From white families
Gonna mount em on a billboard
In the middle of the country
I'm gonna tell everybody they sing like angels with whiter teeth
But just between you and me
They're just like the ones before
With their standards lower
Every concert goer will pay you to believe

Caffeine in the morning, alcohol at night
Cameras to record you and mirrors to recognize
And as the world is getting smaller
Small things take up all your time
Narcissus would have had a field day if he could have got online
And friends it's not self-love that kills you
It's when those who hate you are allowed
To sell you that you're a glorious shit the entire world revolves around
And that you're the eater, and not the eaten
But that your hunger will only cease
If you come binge on radiant blandness at the disposable feast

Just quickly how would you rate yourself
In terms of sex appeal and cultural significance 
Do you usually listen to music like this
We can recommend some similar artists
Are you feeling depressed?
But your feedback's important
To us

Gonna buy myself a sports team
And put em in a pit
Gonna wage the old crusade
Against consciousness
All I need is a couple winners to get every loser to fight in it
You keep the golden calf
I just need the bullshit
They won't just sell themselves into slavery
They'll get on their knees and pay you to believe

The Memo

A cover I dug up of a jefferson airplane tune. I found this while uploading some other tracks. I will never revisit this recording, so I've decided to upload it.

Today (Cover)

Here are some loops from demos I made over the past few months.
Feel free to use them. The loop at 1:28 is a recreation of "Love Like That" btw, so maybe don't use that one since it's already a song.

Random loops for you

Bob Dylan - New York Sessions: Blood on the Tracks

Patience might be best taught by a traffic light at night. Although nothing may stand in your way, you're not permitted to go until the green light says the time's right. In the song, I apply this particular phenomenon to love. Just substitute the green traffic arrow for Cupid's pink projectile and you've got a similar situation.

'Late Night Left Turn' performed/produced/penned by Alexander Moss; originally released 01/01/2020 from the album "Dream Puppy".

Lyrics:
Once nightly,
Exciting.
And now lately,
I’m waiting—
I’m waiting for the arrow,
Quiver and bow,
Quiver and bow,
Become green and go,
I think you know,
I think you know.

Late night
Late night left turn
Out of the darkness
Into lanes of light
And rings of string
That ties us tight
And bound for life

And you’re ready,
Already.
And I’m sorry,
I’m tardy—
I’m hardly half human,
But I'm a fan
Oh, I'm a fan...
I’ll do what I can,
Without a plan,
Without a plan.

Late night
Late night left turn
Out of the darkness
Into lanes of light
And rings of string
That ties us tight
And bound for life

Why not
Tie knot

Now you’re closer
Now you're near
We've come so far
What's this fear?

This lovely
Discovery
Of bubbly
Feelings doubly.
We'll really proclaim it bold
Before we're old,
Let all behold
Our heat never cold,
Let all behold
Before we're old.

Late night
Late night left turn
Out of the darkness
Into lanes of light
And rings of string
That ties us tight
And bound for life

Why not
Tie knot

Now that you’re closer
Now that you're nearer
We've come so far
What need have we for fear?

None
I'm done
Pretendin'
That you and I 
Aren't kissin'!

Hey there Hun,
I'm done
Pretendin'
That you, 
You and I 
Aren't kissin'!

Hey there Hun,
I'm done
Pretendin'
That you,
You and I
Are not kissing.
