i managed to write and record this within the last 24 hours
to kill my substantial amount of down time in Brasil.
i was inspired by a local SP band called Twin Pines who have a song with a sing-song refrain of "cali-forni-aaaaHHHHH" and i figured one good send off
deserves another.  call it musical gringo revenge. 
i used the only things i had access to:  a broken 4 string guitar, an old synth with a floppy disk drive, an ancient, dangerous looking  drum machine, a P-bass, and my quietest singing voice because everyone was asleep when i finished the words. 

it's VERY SAPPY

i couldn't help but capture the nuance of the place, the banging of morning renovations, 
the constant dog party, the fireworks, and my lack of a functioning cel phone. 
(F you very much Verizon) 
see if you can't miss the lyrical shout outs to Morphine and Holger. 
i never thought i'd even post it but what the heck. 
also, if you can, notice the 2nd chorus Axe rhythm that i slapped out on my thigh @ 3am. mega producer lol's.
