Wait 'Til Your Father Gets Home...

if you notice things seem good, have some sense - don't question it
the things that weigh you down seem toothless and benign
this is something like contentment

I feel it every day 
it comes my way
I don't know when

and when I wax and wane
I seem cynical I know ---- 
ohhhh, but I'm trying

doctor trick me with your molecules and swirl the rainbow stew
but you can only mimic chemistries
a thick wax ghost is squatting angry in my chest
and no pill can pull it out of me

this heavy giant blanket draped across my soul
so little light gets in and it's hard to suck in oxygen

.....
but sooner or later I'll come around
staying longer each time I visit
this strange new land where people wander in a dream
and I'll forget the way back eventually

and when it's done it's done 
there's nothing ancillary
no remnants of the poison
only this fresh air

Sooner Or Later

good for you
got a nice new dog
good for you
you got a brand new car

Good For You

walkin doggy, got no bone to speak of
talkin bout rain sunshine and you just walk regardless
walkin down concrete desert dust and muck and restless nights
alone and howlin up at the moon

little king, wander home
grab some cake
it's in your bowl

Walkin Doggy (6 versions spliced together)

I need a friend named Leon
it seems like my life was only really good when I had a friend named Leon

I found a friend named Leon, but I don't think he's quite the right one
cause my life doesn't feel much better
it's not getting better.
maybe it was Larry. 

A Friend Named Leon

how could you open up my mind
then leave me to my own devices
like a child with a dangerous plaything
now all the wolves are closing in
but it's hard to see what's happening
when everything is bursting into flames
wars are starting overnight
all these bombs and dynamite
and paranoiac pulses
mother mary turned away
little children led astray
let these dragons out to play
but try as you might you cannot dare pin this shit on me


Dangerous Plaything

Feelin Busted

first introduced this song to the guys a couple of months ago to see how it would work out -- I think this is like the fourth or fifth time we've played it. aside from re-doing the vocals and adding some more layers of instrumentation here and there, I think this is the version we should stick with as the template for the song. pretty decent.

Alarm!

a culture full of people obsessed with celebrity and who'd do just about anything to be one...

Day In The Sun

just pulled this one out of our butt. sounds like it too -- until the end, where suddenly it all comes together
