Cassette tape recording of of Montreal’s Industrial Vile.  Creating my own Youth Froth tapes.
[LYRICS]
Miss Lillety with a belly full of strawberries
Oh come on, I could be a good gardener
Even though nothing gives joy without a stern, stern look, look, look at me
Pretty and plastic (oh-hoh-hoh-hoh) cheerleader for the pink team
Bluff and butter, just a new thing
The kids have been waitin' for (Takin' zip and waiting for)

Speak, speak in a soft voice, lookin' at 'em battered, broken on the wheel
You got about as much grace as a baloney sandwich
You can be my soda pop
Even though you'll be overweight by your mid-thirties
You poor pig
Put me in a blue dress (oh hoh hoh hoh) 
Have fun at someone else's expense
Don't wanna call you kitten or cupcake, baby, Claire, or somethin' like that
I hope you get your stuff back (oh hoh hoh hoh) from Punk Rock Pat

Pretty in plastic (of Montreal Industrial Vile cassette cover)

Cover of of Montreal's "I Belong to the Movement" from Youth Froth/Tapyiss

[LYRICS]

Gonna take my time
Heads or tails I'll flip
Got me in a good mood
I'm taking a turn for the better
I've left a way
It works not taking a turn for the worse
I'm not staying in shape
Dancin' all round my room alone
Cooking with Fats Domino

My favorite song I know
I know my favorite song it goes like this:
You'll go walk outside with my cowboy hat and my dog after my cats
I was eating bananas just a week ago
Montana, Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona and New Mexico

I fell silent and quiet
Feet moving away from a city that always sleeps
Brooding and making alterations on a life of waking up, looking about, falling into bed

Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

Stepping on my toes
Beating around the bush
It's too much one by yourself
Let me tell you brother

Taking walks and talking to yourself
Could get you somewhere
I'd probably be about three quarters of the way by now
And I'm picking up bad sleeping habits too 
Woo oh great!
Just about to say it just like the first time I moved away
Met new faces, saw new friends
Got to know my way around the place
Just in time to move back here again

Drown this flower in the ground
The part has the fall somewhere
Didn't stay long, friend, nothing, hey!

I was just about to say this is like the first time I moved away
Met new faces, saw new friends
Got to know my way around the place
Just in time to move back here again

I Belong to the Movement (of Montreal cover)

of Montreal cover of Dee's Enochian Alphabet

Pushed up close to extinction
An exchange of fetti complainers
I can stand on my hands or my own two feet
Do we really need the change?
Oh man this is weak

Touch is a nice instrument
How sad it is to see that
My own face doesn't look familiar

Bend the fire, beat the fire, a new beginning, a nurturing friendship will rise
Been feeling like the YOLO as of late
It doesn't look good on me
A snowflake, coat of down
Eating macaroni makes angry teeth for a voice that comes dim, and I'm falling

Touch is a nice instrument
How sad it is to see that
My own face doesn't look familiar

Bend the fire, beat the fire, a new beginning, a nurturing friendship will rise
It's a picnic in a green shady place
You're fruity like watermelon
Take care of the box, keep the flowers in your pockets
For the man who has the elephants to "yeah" whatever you say

Touch is a nice instrument
How sad it is to see that
My own face doesn't look familiar

Pushed Up Close to Extinction(of Montreal Dee’s Enochian Alphabet cover)

A very one-off demo.  Rough and charming.
[LYRICS]
I want to write something beautiful,
Something so beautiful
That I just can't sing it
Without getting that incredible feeling,
The one that just overwhelms my senses.
Because it's the only thing I have,
It's the only thing that makes my life worthwhile.

I know there aren't too many people
Who allow themselves to say what they feel,
So I was watching your eyes,
In case they just might say something.

I want to think someone's beautiful,
That they're so beautiful it's a thrill to be near them.
Fill my stomach with butterflies,
Have me floating on air,
Bring something out of me I didn't know was there.
But it's such a torturous thing
That I am not excited by anyone.

I know there aren't too many people
Who allow themselves to say what they feel,
So I was watching your eyes,
In case they just might say something.

I Was Watching Your Eyes (of Montreal cover)

Acoustic cover of Phoenix's "Drakkar Noir" from their album Bankrupt

You could do it better
Drakkar Noir
Cheap fixtures, religious tales
Light a cigarette for two
You're close to get to
How come everyone knows you before they meet you?

In the jingle jungle
Jingle junkie
Juggle juggle me
On a better standard than mediocre,
I watch you tumble
Jangle jungle
Jingle jump before you stumble
I'm just too glad to say no
Say no

Scandinavian leather
Drakkar Noir
Fake riches, oblivious tales,
On a domestic airline
Swear to god you're mine

In the jangle jungle
Jingle junkie
Jungle juggle me
A better standard than mediocre,
I watch you tumble
Jingle jungle
Jingle jump before you stumble
I'm just too glad to say no
Say no, say no

How I wish I knew
How I wish I knew you from before
'Til I die
'Til I die
'Til I die
Run the avenues, until the city unfurls
Won't we have to know
Do we have to know what truth is?
Why I wish I knew
How I wish I knew you from before
'Til I die
'Til I die
'Til I die
I'm just too glad to say no
Say no, say no

Drakkar Noir (Phoenix Cover)

Wide-eyed optimist looking for a sarcastic Sagittarius
Airplanes in your window, I don't want to break your confidence
Spying for a looksie
That blow-mouth wrestling with the sound of happiness
I'll gladly not harbor your boats
Know that in a house of resentment nothing grows

This unlikely pair, this unlikable prune
It's a cream puff wedding of two
Underachievers and nancy-boys are bound
Waiting on the weather
In the sleeping house
Where we're at arms length
And at least two words apart

Catalogue reaction, pleasant inconsistencies 
A salad on your toes, makes a better breakfast I know
Where your sweets and scenery sleep
Those moving words, dressing up
I've got a pretty good idea who I'm standing on
I'll gladly not borrow your voice
Maybe a phrase of two

This unlikely pair, this unlikable prune
It's a creampuff wedding of two
Underachievers and nancy-boys are bound
Waiting on the weather
To settle down

Waiting on the Weather (Dirty Dustin Hoffman Needs a Bath) [of Montreal cover]

All of my conversations die a painful death you see
I can't get anyone to do algebra with me

It's hard to make real friends
My friends have lots of friends
I don't hang out enough
Take drugs and learn to love

This intercom is broken into pieces
I gotta call my QB Blitz, B blitz
Out on the ice fields of Hoth
I'll be, I'll be missing you like oxygen (xygen)
(Woah, whoa, woah, whoa)
I'll be missing you like oxygen

I wanna have the feeling someone's in love with me
You gotta choose between the internet and me
People don't bring me joy
I think, you get the point
I'm on an epic quest
Pursuit of happiness

This intercom is broken into pieces
I gotta call my QB Blitz, B blitz
Out on the ice fields of Hoth
I'll be, I'll be missing you like oxygen (xygen)
(Woah, whoa, woah, whoa)
I'll be missing you like oxygen

Sing for the moment
The place on the ocean
In the middle of a snowdrift
We're alone in the universe
Sing for the moment
With a paper lantern over the light
Sing for the moment

This intercom is broken into pieces
I gotta call my QB Blitz, B blitz
Out on the ice fields of Hoth
I'll be, I'll be missing you like oxygen (xygen)
(Woah, whoa, woah, whoa)
I'll be missing you like oxygen

QB Blitz (Weezer Cover)

If I were to die this mornin'
Would you tell me things that you wouldn't have?

Would you be my navigator?
Would you take me to a place we could hide?

As I'm falling out
I wonder what I lost
Must be moving on
Know you'll be waitin' here alone

I want to ask you to forgive me
I haven't been the best with all that I had

Wish I'd only laid beside you
I think I spread myself a little too thin

As I'm falling out
I wonder what I lost
Must be moving on
Know I'll be waitin' here alone

You're the everything
That led me to believe
Hold on, hold on
You're the wonder in everything
That's wonderful

As I'm fading out
I don't feel anything at all
Think I'm moving on
Know you'll be safe but not alone

You're the everything
That led me to believe
Hold on, hold on
You're the wonder in everything
That's wonderful
That's wonderful
Know you'll be safe but not alone

Wonderful (STP Cover)

Gonna take my time, heads or tails I'll flip
Got me in a good mood, I'm taking a turn for the better 
I've left a way
It works not taking a turn for the worst

I'm na-ma staying in shape 
Dancing all round my room alone
Cooking with Fats Domino

My favorite song I know
I know my favorite song
It goes like this:

Take a walk outside with my cowboy hat
And my dog after my cats
I was eating bananas just a week ago
Montana, Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, and New Mexico

I fell silent and quiet
Feet moving away from a city that always sleeps
Brooding and making alterations on a life of waking up
Looking about falling into bed

Na na na na na na

Stepping on my toes
Beating around the bush
It's too much one by yourself
Let me tell you brother

If taking walks and talking to yourself could get you somewhere
I'd probably be about three-quarters of the way by now

And I'm picking up bad sleeping habits too
Woo, oh great!

Just about to say
It's just like the first time that I moved away
Met new faces, saw new friends, got to know my way around the place
Just in time to move back here again

Drown this flower in the ground
The part has to fall somewhere
Didn't stay long friend nothing, hey!

I was just about to say
It's like the first time I moved away
Met new faces, saw new friends, got to know my way around the place
Just in time to move back here again

I Belong to the Mandolin Movement (of Montreal I Belong to the Movement cover)

I can't stop your memory from breaking my heart
Devils were laughing so loud,
I couldn't hear the radio

In the dark bags become
Sneaking devils waiting to pounce
And display impressive claws
I might wink at them before they land

I can hear my heart beat
across the room behind the closet door
When I'm laying in my bed in the dark

I can't gather all the love that I need when I need it
I'm not mad I understand that that's the price,
And all is forgiven in the end
If your heart was in the right place
If you lived an honest life, if you tried

I can't stop your memory from breaking my heart
Devils were laughing so loud,
I couldn't hear the radio

I Can't Stop Your Memory [of Montreal cover]

City and desert coexist
Depending on the things you're wearing
Wildlife binoculars
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you want me

They teach you suffer to resist
Too much intention Presbyterian
Mint julep testosterone
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you want me

Cool, I'm just trying to be cool
And it's all because of you
Some fanatic attitude
We're both on

Open for business says it all
You can't go wrong
Is innocence too immature where you're from?
Tell me that you want it
Tell me that you want it all

Two dozen pink and white ranunculus
Why, what are the problems to solve?
To part-time holy bachelors
Tell them that you want me
Tell them that you want me

Cool, I'm just trying to be cool
And it's all because of you
Some fanatic attitude
We're both on

Open for business says it all
You can't go wrong
Compliments sound too cynical where you're from
Tell me that you want it
Tell me that you want it all

Gruesome, I don't care where you're from
Nothing's that personal
There is no physical evidence of cannibal boyfriend

Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you want me
Why don't you tell me that you want me?
Tell me that you want it all

How I wish I knew
How I wish I knew you from before
'til I die, 'til I die, 'til I die
Run the avenues until the city unfolds
Why would we have to know?
Do we have to know what truth is?

Why I wish I knew I wish I knew you from before
'til I die, 'til I die, 'til I die
I'm just too glad to say no
To say no, to say no

Trying to Be Cool [Phoenix cover]

Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty
Sound of their breath fades with the light
I think about the loveless fascination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Lower the curtain down on Memphis
Lower the curtain down all right
I got no time for private consultation
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

And it's something quite peculiar
Something shimmering and white
Leads you here despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

And it's something quite peculiar
Something shimmering and white
Leads you here despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

Under the Milky Way [The Church cover]

When I look in the mirror
I can't believe what I see
Tell me, who's that funky dude
Staring back at me?

Broken, beaten down
I can't even get around
Without an old man cane
I fall and hit the ground
I'm shivering in the cold
Bitter and alone

Excuse the bitchin'
I shouldn't complain
I should have no feeling
'Cause feeling is pain

As everything I need
Is denied me
And everything I want
Is taken away from me
But who do I got to blame?
Nobody but me

But I don't wanna be an old man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

Screw this crap, I've had it 
I ain't no Mr. Cool
I'm a pig, I'm a dog
So excuse me if I drool

I ain't gonna hurt nobody
I ain't gonna cause a scene
Just need to admit
That I want sugar in my tea
Hear me? Hear me? I want sugar in my tea

And I don't wanna be an old man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life

It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

I wanna go back, I wanna go back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

Cause I don't wanna be an old man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life

It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back yeah
