Truly poetic! The harmonies kinda remind me of Beck for some reason.

Another cut from my forthcoming EP My Kingdom For A Jake Leg. 

The Lyrics for this song are written in Wobbly, aka Hobo language. 

Lyrics:
Sab cat slow
Crooked elbow

(word I can't remember)  town
Main stem bound

Hoover flag
Bindle bag

Jawbone bed
Wobbly head

Whiskers cut
Cool rot gut

Lyrics
Gonna carve my name
Into your breath
Over this wall
Will there be anything at all?

Feel the weight again
Piling up to the ceiling
Gonna drift away
Gonna slip into the morning
Feel the walls closing in again this time
Gonna drift away
Gonna slip into the morning

Wobbly Head
