that was the loudest song and we played it wrong.
it went on and on and on for so god damned long.
i wish all your friends was playing again
but i could listen to you recite the alphabet.
i want an instrument that we did not invent.
so in my downtime, i stay up late.
sorry if i’m keeping you awake.
but every time i talk, it’s like i’m writing with chalk.
i am scribbling and you’re looking at the clock
but sometimes i like pissing people off.
so in my downtime, i stay up late.
you’ve been half asleep since half past eight.
i’ve been repeating myself these days.
sorry if i’m keeping you awake.
Thanks for putting this out. I had tickets to this show but got scared and stayed home that night. I hope you come back to DC before too long. kgtiernan
Gritty, rollicking romps through a minefield of free-associative mini-novels told in song. The cataclysmic churn of Hassle Magnet takes the (realistic birthday) cake. julian
