This is an excerpt from a 17 minute long experimental improvisation in Atwood's Tavern in Cambridge, MA on Wednesday, March 10, 2010. (This was long before we were known as Vapors of Morphine -- the band had only been officially a unit since the previous spring.) This track was released on the CD Members of Morphine with Jeremy Lyons by The Ever Expanding Elastic Waste Band in the autumn of the same year. I was considering releasing the entire track here, but it just seemed a bit much. Maybe later. (Art work by DC) -JL

Kitchen Open till Midnight

Some slide guitar. Another track from the album "A New Low," this one is an old Delta Blues tune by Kid Bailey, which Jeremy has been playing since his street days in New Orleans with the Big Mess Blues Band. John Mooney and subsequently Augie Jr covered the tune as "Ain't Gonna Marry." Jeremy recorded it with the Deltabilly Boys back in 2001, for "Live at the Dragon's Den." But the VoM version stands alone. 
Everything on this track was recorded live in the studio. Recorded by Pete Weiss and company and produced by Pete and VoM.

*lyrics*

كل ما قول لك تنسى القصة
بتاخدها فرصة ترجع للماضي
ضيعنا الكوكب بالمجرة
ما عاد الكرّة ووقف عالفاضي
ياه، قطفت الوردة جذعها حاص
ياه، رسمت فوق الجذع راس
ياه، نَبَتْ لحاله بين هالناس

وانت على شو ماضي، وماسك بأباطي؟
كل ما أدلّك تسوى القصة
اعطيني حصة او دلني عالقاضي
المخطط ربّط إيدي إسم الله
روحي مش حرة وجسمي مش راضي

الضباع بتاكلنا وانت بتئِن ليه؟
ما بتِعترفش بفَلسطين وتِدعي لحل الدولتين
وحشة
الضباع بتاكلنا وانت بتتضَبعن ليه؟
ما بتِعترفش بفَلسطين وتِدعي لحل الدولتين
وحشة

whenever I urge you to forget
you find your side way to the past
into the galaxy, our planet went 
no longer circled and stopped in vain

oh when I picked the flower the stem was mystified 
I drew a human head over it
but it grew lonely in the crowd

why are you still on the move, dragging me along?
whenever I point you to the direction, you find the way
give me credit or jurisdiction 
a conspiracy so well studied, it tied up my hands
my soul is not free and my body unsatisfied

we're being preyed on by wolves. Why are you howling? 
never recognizing Palestine and calling for the two-state solution
it is vile

we're being preyed on by wolves. Why do you turn into them? 
never recognizing Palestine and calling for the two-state solution
it is vile
