Sensational Gravity Boy

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

Long road black road touch the road
It’s a hard road
Spontaneous combustion
Final decision it’s the only way
Straight up off from the aggressive rock
Intelligensia
But I feel no pain
From the vacuum that sucks me in

I saw you drifting away
With your car today
With the world rushing by
In the wink of an eye
Move away from the whip
On the reality ship
And the world is a toy
For sensational gravity boy

Words in the important points
Is the assassin
Models just them figurines
Yeah just the ones we chose to keep
Look them over vaguely spacy
He spots them
And he will not change
He is a trooper when it comes to that

I saw you drifting away
With your car today
With the world rushing by
In the wink of an eye
Move away from the whip
On the reality ship
And the world is a toy
For sensational gravity boy

PS: Eventually, I’ll stop posting lyrics. But that will be when I’m not so hammered that lyrics are all I’m thinking about.

The Brides Have Hit Glass

Monday, April 24th, 2006

I don’t come around
Never call or let her know
I got a life of my own
You know I hate to be around her
When she’s like that
I wrote a song once about her
Called “The Brides Have Hit Glass”
You know it just won’t last
To be on top of your own world
With no guardrails to cling to
You fall so very fast
It’s very odd to find her up again
Staking out expansion
Seeking new exposure

And when she holds out an empty glass
And she comes for a handout
I ask for the same thing; it’s sad
And I hold on so sure I can take all she can
Just to be around her
Just to feel bad

One day I will know
That’s it’s a waste of time
And there’s a better road ahead of me
I just don’t know how to make it there
So I’ll just hang around and take my chance
Once again I’ll roll the dice
And try to hang on to my shrinking paradise

And I’ll hold out an empty glass
And I’ll come for a handout
And I’ll ask for the same thing; it’s sad
And I’ll go on so confident
That’s it all I can give
Just to find my way again
Just to hit glass

Bells Ring…

Sunday, April 23rd, 2006

Bells ring into the night
Sounds like a mistress on a rainy night
Hold your throw down together
And see the light that goes away
Leave my heart down by the water
He spins inside my soul
It isn’t true but you follow
Just hold me down by the water

They say you look like a believer
Look up to see the weakness in the sky
Nobody’s out to buy your story
Nobody wants to know your reason why
Hold your hands out towards the water
In front of me to know I’m with you
Don’t put it all into your hero
Look on if you believe
Look on if you believe
Look on if you believe
Don’t want to say that I’m through with it
Just want to be , Right by your side,
Right by your side

Oh Good Lord…

Saturday, April 22nd, 2006

So tonight…I went to the Robert Pollard show in Boston..and actually met Robert Pollard.

I was shopping in a record store down the block from the show…and he came walking in…I ignored him for a while, while pointing out to my friends that we were now shopping in the presence of greatness.

Then I couldn’t resist anymore and had to go talk to him.

So..here is me looking like a total fucking moron standing next to my hero.

That’s right bitches. I shopped for records in the same shop in Boston that Bob shopped.

And yeah…the record you see in my hand is the 13th Floor Elevators, “Easter Everywhere” for those that care….

PS: I just want to take moment to mention that Uncle Bob rocked the hell out of the place tonight. I literally walked out of the place feeling like I had never actually seen a live concert before.

I guess the real truth here is that you MUST GO SEE ROBERT POLLARD LIVE. If you have the opportunity, and you choose not to, you might as well never go see a rock band again as long as you live.

That really is as deep as it gets. RP and the Ascendent Masters were fucking IN-CRED-I-BLE…tonight.

And no..I’m not just saying that because me and Bob happen to shop the same Boston record stores.

My New Favorite Band

Friday, April 21st, 2006

Check this shit out…

Do you think they get together after the show and laugh about how rediculous they are, or do you think they actually take themselves seriously?

Either way, I must attend one of their shows some day, just for the novelty.

Sick Kode9 Video

Thursday, April 20th, 2006

This is something everyone needs to check out.

Is that not the absolute sickest bassline you’ve ever heard?

Kode9 has consistently kicked ass for so many years it’s starting to get rediculous. And he just keeps getting better and better. This video marks a serious epoch for him though.

Storm Vibrations

Friday, April 14th, 2006

Does she blend well?
Your choice, I mean?
Your angel baby monkey girl
The gift of smiles and love production
Her sunshine mind
Her storm cloud eyes
Blending colors into brown
Confusing emotions - deliberately
Does it hurt you?
To love, I mean?

And all the creases in your brow?
The red bed spread?
The storm vibrations?

The starless nights?
The shattered screen?

Allowing pain to enter
Let your guard down obviously

I will try to find you
No matter where you may go

It will try to find you
No matter who you may know

Does it hurt you?
To love, I mean?
