From the abandoned 1996-97 recordings for Tinmen's "Techno Pop Culture" album. Although "Less Than True" was preformed live, lead vocals were never recorded in the studio.

Less than true

Less than true to say I always knew
that we would be together once again.
More than false: We dance a lifelong waltz.
But who will be your partner at the end?

When my course is less than true
(for a change)
I'll stop to stare and think of you.
And if you leave him as you left me then,
could it ever be the same?
Oh, baby, are you less than true?

Lesson two:  My heart belongs to you,
although I have a back-up out on loan.
Possibly your soul belongs to me,
but I want it given, not just owned.

So when your course is less than true
(for a change)
you'll stop to think of me with you.
And if I leave her as you left me then,
could it ever be the same?
Oh, baby, am I less than true?

Less than true:  Love long over-due
is coursing through my body with each pulse.
Shades of grey:  I lie little when I say
that our love forever is more the false.

And when my course is less than true
(for a change)
I'll stop to stare and think of you.
And if you leave him as you left me then,
could it ever be the same?
Oh, baby, are you less than true?

When our course is less than true
(for a change)
we'll stop to stare and think of me with you.
And if we leave them as you left me then,
could it ever be the same?
Oh, baby...
oh, baby...
oh, baby...
Are we less than true?

Merry Christmas from Tinmen!  This is our contribution to the Cat:Claus '96 Christmas album put out by Control-Alt-Delete.  In the sweltering heat of August 1996, we spent a week holed up in the studio producing this.  Natolie Anne Lanoville does the back-up vocals.  Enjoy, and Happy Holidays!
