I wrote this while very heartbroken, waiting for a car in front of a corner store in SF, while drinking a tall boy (the beer). Me and some friends finished writing it that night and recorded it the next day in my bedroom.

Tall Boy

Woman

Woman (feat. Cleo Sol)

Never Lose Me

The Art of Loving

So Easy (To Fall In Love)

[intro]

[Fem]
Wait. . That was real?
Oh...

[Masc]

What? Yeah, babe..

[Verse]

Sitting, shocked and stupefied, just scrolling through the news
Chasing pills and alcohol with old cold turkey blues
Hard and heavy rain came down, your world feels washed away
"Well nothing ever happens", so I heard newsmen say

[Bridge]

[Ska upstrokes, beat kicks off] 

Uhhh...

We breathed in matching syncopations to the count of ten [intense deep breath] (ten)
We kept up that routine until our room was real again
Can't wait to hit those big box stores with bags of IOUs
Cuz lovers need to feed on more than old Cold Turkey blues

[Masc] 

Huh? 

[Chorus]

oh no! 
did we see what you can't say
oh no no! 
[Sarcastic] Guess you'll try again today
Oh Lord!
This room's our world, it suits us fine
wuh? woah!
Now you want our love? Well...
Hmm... Get in line. 

[Masc] 

Yuh..

[Instrumental drop, hard] 


[Verse]

The window's kinda open, feeling whispers from the wind
I suppose the only words you know are soaked with sin
You lay to waste the places that I used to call my home
When I'm finally settled, you say "freedom is to roam"

[Masc]

Uhhh.....

[Fem] 

Whu?

[brief crazy solo, hard]

[Chorus]

oh no! 
Now we see what you can't say
oh no no! 
[Sarcastic] Guess you'll try again today
Oh Lord!
This is our world, it suits us fine
Huh? wooaah!
Now you need our love? Well...
Hmm... Get in line. 

Get offline. 

get IN line

[Spoken] 

Nah, man. You might be waiting here for a while. 

Nah 

It's cool, just wait over there. 

[Fade out] 

Nah, you're SO good, SO SO SO good. 

[Women laughing maniacally]

cold turkey blues

[city ambiance, frustrated people in line]

[cool intro]

[verse]

The lines are getting longer
Though there is no product left
I hear this place made money
Selling headphones to the deaf
The rumor spread around 
That they were ripping off the weak
These folks here seem to hear me
So tell me what they seek?

[Instrumental]

[Spoken, knowing] 

Cha-ching!

.. Yeah..!

Cha-ching-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling!

[New voice]

[Verse]

The story goes one of them told another how to be
"Buy the shi-, then be the legs, then find a sucker down the street"
No God above to regulate the way to use our feet
A fool will never profit, take advantage, so to speak

[Instrumental]

[Spoken, knowing] 

[Voice 1] Ohhh.. so-

[Voice 2] They Cha-ching-a-ling-a-linger

[Voice 1] Ahhh..

heard.

[Another new voice]

[Verse]

I guess nobody told them that the store has been long closed
They never put a sign up, you're supposed to just suppose
The doors 'been locked for ages, all the neon signs long dim 
Somebody must have come here first but who knows who is him? 

[Instrumental]

[Spoken, curious] 

Wait, that guy over there.. he has something to say I think. 

[Vibe shift to pure evil]

[Different voice, evil, resentful]

[Verse]

"Now I was raised inside a world so cruel and insecure
I tried to utilize the things that promised me a cure 
I only found more emptiness, until my soul i lacked 
Now if I pull a profit, maybe I can buy it back. 
I do not fear the Lord above, nor mankind's earthly gun
In fact I cannot feel a thing down underneath that sun
I know not where to go, not east or west or up our down
They said I should wait right here, so here I hang around. "

[Vibe back, but changed]

[Outro]

[Spoken, protagonist]

Oh..

You got a cigarette? 

...


Hello? 

...


No?

[Solo] 

So speaks the profit

P-r-o-f-i-t

Huh

Money doesn't talk, boys, it swears!

For real!

...

Cha-ching?
