bad sign
02:50
|

Sybil gives her crystal vision futures in high definition
Traces your hand on a bad line
Keep a talisman for the end times
It's hard to keep to commitments based on lousy decisions
Seven digits and a pound sign
Silent judge on the sideline
Tell this to no one
Give in to no one
Tell this to no one
Give in to no one
Okay yeah, okay alright
Feels like a hot one here tonight
Glowing specks on the hillside
Like Sausalito at twilight
Ugly end of a raw deal
I know exactly how you feel
Slip back into old habits
We were just laughing about it
Tell this to no one
give in to no one
Tell this to no one
Give in to no one
Roaring back with a vengeance
Taking notes from a distance
I come to you from the future
Sorry, everything sucks here too

Live in the Digital Age
in the US of A
Drowned in pink lemonade and tequila
Mantra repeats in a drawl
“Hit this one over the wall”
Fast-walking olds at the mall
Trying to steal ya
Mantra
Repeat
“End all
Wanting”
Short side
Wishbone
Goodnight
Dead phone
Torch the old haunts
Rescind the amends
Betrayed yourself once
Now, do it again
Make it all up
A beautiful lie
Like when I told you I was
The Truth in my time
Talk to me, I know exactly how you feel
Grocery run in an empty city

ancient one
02:53
|

sitting by the Ancient One
she’s smoking cigarettes
waiting for the bus
with a romance novelette
a shirtless gentleman
nestled in her breast
says "I'll love you til i die"
adapting to the new age
starting to repeat myself
decorate this ole cage
starting to repeat myself
youth is just a mindset
that I’ve put on the shelf
but I’ll love you til I die
I could use a weekend
head against the window
stewing on the same things
where did all the time go?
I listened to your bootleg
I'll horde it like Calypso
talking about the new age
starting to repeat myself
decorate this old cage
starting to repeat myself
I could use some new friends
probably a weekend
banished to the Stone Age
and history repeats itself
decorate this old cave
starting to repeat someone else
did you hear the new song
the very first one
after the hiatus
sorry, now the band sucks
sorry, other band sucks

here for now
i'm watching
i'm waiting
hanging out
here for now
i'm watching
or hanging out
watching the plants grow
should i get a vhs?
JVC? TC-30? Memorex? T-120?
maybe, eventually
maybe not
or not
I"m waiting
watching the plants grow
maybe not
for now
I'm waiting
watching the plants grow
no light
hold on tight like the last time
sitting around watching the plants grow
I'm trying to help you see

must be a cop
03:49
|

circle the lot
must be a cop
with grizz in his teeth
as he jacks the last spot
take another lap
curse karma, she has failed you again
aimless or not
we’re all gonna rot
preach to the choir
already shot
I see dead ones on the buy-in
I see dead kids skating lines at the mall
selling pot, stealing my spot
slipping minds lead straight lines down
say the words in your head, then say em again one more time
sundays for smiters
doghouse on fire
bad hook, don’t bite it
i’ll help you fight it
here’s another one
steal away with you
cursed from the start
believe it or not
there's a reason you feel like you do
I see dead ones on the buy-in
i see dead kids skating lines, then they're gone
selling pot
slipping minds lead straight lines down
say the words in your head, then say em again one more time
get in line

liked to party

watched you do it last night
i thought "she’s on, somewhere high above us"
words ring out in halftime on crooked lawns
how far do you wanna go?
you should have thought of that
but you never had no sense to outrun it
you’re never coming back down
you’ll never come back down again from it
it’s Barcelona
calling out "red rover"
send my buddy over
when the fiesta
turns into siesta
there’s nothing any better
reminding me of old days
when our friends all liked to party
when we'd never give the whole thing
knowing half was disregarded
gonna leave you in a cold way
soon as it feels like it's starting
fill the carafe with warm sake by the light of your phone
walk you through it last night
i thought you asked "how bad do you want it?"
they were coming so fast
you know, it don't matter how you love it
it's Costa Rica
singing "Pura Vida"
nice to finally meet ya
hanging with the loners, fogies and the stoners
universal donors
reminding me of old days
when our friends all liked to party
when we'd never give the whole thing
knowing half was disregarded
gonna leave you in a cold way
soon as it feels like it's starting
fill the carafe with warm sake by the light of your phone

wake up, snoozy
did you miss me?
i've been waiting at your door
what's up with you?
do you get the feeling we've been here before?
cruisin' GARTH BROOKS BLVD
not a lot to see, unless you look a little harder
cruisin' GARTH BROOKS BLVD
how tiny must you be to never get any farther?
hurry, did you get the picture?
clinking glasses for the gram
ease up, would you,
if you could, cause i'm in something of a jam
roxy, snow white
not a gold mine
just like old times
just a car
pocket money
"drop the bunny"
can it, honey
you're a star!
save your maybes for the babies
sad one playing steel guitar
wake up snoozy
did you miss me?
i've been wondering where you are
cruisin' GARTH BROOKS BLVD
not a lot to see, unless you look a little harder
cruisin' GARTH BROOKS BLVD
how tiny must you be to never get any farther?

had like 5 minutes

Purple stain, 15 dollar Snoop wine
on a t-shirt from the airport of a dog drinking cervezas
within its shape, I found her lying, supine
with a CRT behind her playing the sequel to Fantasia
bit flip in the program where we’re defined
now the father of all mankind
is just your creepy uncle
in the astral plane reception, form a new line
there is Good here in the parlour
only Evil in the jungle
this little light of mine, i'm gonna let it shine
let it shine, all the time, let it shine

chaturanga, exhale
now mind your breathing (like a regular guy)
adho-mukha svanasana
keep breathing
and if your legs feel tight,
well, just keep breathing (like a regular guy)
and after this,
we'll pop a top for the weekend
but for now sing ayoooooooooo ayooooooooo
hologram faces running round
empty new space in the underground
we're above it now
sonogram tracing overhead
take a pass, moving on instead
to Another Green World
someone's watching too many movies...
but I digress,
please don't change a thing
chaturanga, exhale
ayooooo ayooooooooooo
and you are what you love now
not what loves you, anyhow
If the drought lasts forever
Just know.. You will not
and I can't wait til tomorrow comes
and you can see my face and know that i was just joking the whole time
joking the whole time, yeah
don't take that stuff so seriously

deep freeze
03:29
|

coasting on the buzz
dimmed to a whispered hum
where's my good ole gang done gone?
where's my good ole gang done gone?
he said "They've gone away, gone away, gone away"
promise me, once I lose consciousness
you'll put me in the deep freeze
cruising around town with your classic rock cassettes playing
kissing some god's feet in your '91 Ford Ranger
said "They've gone away, gone away, gone away"
in the lull of the morning, I could swear that I had been reborn
in the light of the morning, in the lull of the morning
I had been reborn
gone away, gone away, gone away

postgrad hymn
02:46

chalk another one for the native son
cry and wave so long to the best of us
on a final run into the midnight sun
some say he’s Janis, reincarnate mmhmm
god-fearing teenager
at the Bieber show
she cannot control
where the spirit goes
as a fire grows
singing, “Despacito”
some say she’s Elvis, reincarnate mmhmm
take the minivan out to see the Man
bound in chains again
help me understand how your bird in hand hit the ceiling fan
some say I’m a dog, reincarnated mmhmm
where you headed toward?
there is nothing more on the Other Shore
I’ve been there before
I can find the Lord in a pedal board
I can tell you it’s fools gold, it's fool's gold baby mmhmm
pick the chewing gum
off your coffee cup
now the light is off often as it’s on
killed the underdog in the epilogue
Just another repeat performance, repeat performance mmhmm
gonna take awhile, but we can work it out
turn the music down
I hear you now
If you’ve heard this one, please tell me to stop..

straight to video
02:18
|

a part of me dies in each and every vibration
I heard it twice, so then twice did I die
holding on tight as the last hour of light
sheds a fading reminder “you cannot abide”
I say to each their own
however you must cope
caught em French kissing, busted cans o' biscuits
rolling on the floor with the folks out of town
time has a long winded way of saying no to things
You can’t cheat the system if the system is down
but it's writ on the wall like a poem in a stall
as the new rock n roll goes straight to video
I won't judge you for nothing
just stay off of my toes
I've heard you can really breathe in San Diego
