The third studio album from San Diego's quirky group of antique automatons released in 2013. This release introduced the robot named Hatchworth to the band and new musical programming interfacing with their familiar harmonic tones for a variety of sleek, ear-pleasing catchy melodies, fresh beats, and comedic stylings. From pop music to disco, the robots will have you tapping your toes all night long. Listen with caution, though, because you might just catch Hatch Fever!

lyrics:
HAO:
HERE ARE SOME SWEETS. 
CANDIES, APPLE, 
HONEY FROM YOUR BEES.
YOU DON’T LIKE SWEETS.
JUST BLACKENED COFFEE,
LEMON-FLAVORED TEAS. 

IF I CAN’T TEMPT YOU BACK WITH THESE,
I WILL TRY WITH MEMORY.
THIS LANTERN BRIDGE IS MADE OF WORDS.
PLEASE FOLLOW THEM TO ME.

I’VE ALWAYS LOVED SWEETS, 
SEX, AND SLEEPING, 
THE PLEASURES OF THE EARTH.
MY MOTHER SAID GODS
DON’T CARE FOR PLEASURE.
THEY SEEK A HIGHER BIRTH. 

BUT IF I CAME BACK AS YOUR CAT
OR A WORM INSIDE YOUR EAR.
I COULD STILL STAY WITH YOU
SOMEWHERE VERY NEAR.
I WOULDN’T WANT TO BE A GOD.
CLOUDS ARE ALL THEY CARE ABOUT.
WHEN WE FALL ASLEEP AT NIGHT,
I BREATHE IN
YOU BREATHE OUT

SOME DAYS I COME HOME
SWEATING, WEARY, 
ITCHING FOR A FIGHT. 
AND THEN YOU TOUCH ME,
TENDER, GOLDEN, 
MY CHEST POURS OUT WITH LIGHT. 

AND I DON’T NEED TO SAY A WORD,
DON’T NEED WATER, FOOD, OR REST. 
LIKE A FISH FINDING THE OCEAN, 
MY HEAD DIVES TO YOUR CHEST. 
THERE ARE NO THOUGHTS TO CLOUD IT.
NO PROMISES TO DOUBT.
WHEN WE FALL ASLEEP AT NIGHT
I BREATHE IN
YOU BREATHE OUT

ANTHONY:
BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW
WHAT HE’D FEEL IN YOUR PLACE?
YOUR FACES CAN TOUCH
BUT THERE’S ALWAYS A SPACE.
AND THAT TINY REFLECTION
OF YOU IN HIS EYES
DO YOU LOVE HIM OR JUST
WHAT HIS LAST NAME IMPLIES? 

(HAO, mildly amused, takes ANTHONY’s hands and gives him one of the incense sticks. They place and light the incense.) 

HAO:
WITHOUT LOVE, TASTY SWEETS
LEAVE YOU STARVING FOR MORE
WITHOUT LOVE, YOU HAVE SEX
BUT IT FEELS LIKE A CHORE
WITHOUT LOVE, TASTY SWEETS
LEAVE YOU STARVING FOR MORE
WITHOUT LOVE, YOU HAVE SEX
BUT IT FEELS LIKE A CHORE
BUT WITH LOVE, RUNNING WATER
IS AS FILLING AS STEW
WHAT IF YOU CARE FOR HIM
THE WAY HE CARES FOR YOU?

(JÓZEF begins to become more corporeal as HAO and ANTHONY sing together) 

HAO:
YOU MAKE ME NEW SWEETS- 

ANTHONY:
YOU BUY ICED COFFEE-

HAO:
WITH SPICES WE SHARED. 

ANTHONY:
YOU WAIT UP AT NIGHT-

HAO:
YOU ROAST ME A PEPPER- 

ANTHONY:
YOU HUM WHEN I’M SCARED. 

ANTHONY/HAO:
AND YOU DON’T NEED TO SAY A WORD.
I’D DO THE SAME FOR YOU.
PASSING FAVORS BACK AND FORTH,
MAKING ONE LIFE OUT OF TWO.
WHY DENY THE SWEETS
YOU’D HAVE A BITTER LIFE WITHOUT? 
WHEN WE FALL ASLEEP AT NIGHT

(HAO touches a hand to ANTHONY’s wrist to stop him from singing)

HAO:
I BREATHE IN. 

(He waits.)

HAO:
I BREATHE IN. 

(He waits.) 

HAO:
I BREATHE IN. 

JÓZEF:
(with great effort)
I BREATHE OUT. 

(HAO looks up, finally seeing JÓZEF for the first time, and collapses into his arms.)

Short description because this is a random new thing I just kinda put down and wound up wanting to show.

Long story short: Hiveswap is awesome. Xefros is the absolute best, but Joey is really great too. The music is great too. Here's an 8-bit Half-Harley Mansion that's messy but I liked enough to actually upload.

Hope you enjoy!
