Kitty
01:35
|
|||
|
Radio on / Volume at 1
Driving home from the veterinarian
Cold as a snake / an empty crate
Driving home from the veterinarian, all alone
Oh Kitty I miss you babe / Oh Kitty I love you girl
Don't wanna see you go / But I can't stand to see you hurt
Kitty Kitty Kitty Kitty Kitty Kitty Kitty

Good Call
01:32
|
|||
|
I swam the lake and it was good / good call / good call
I leaned my back against the wood / pretty pretty / pretty good
And then I woke up and it was cold / My friends were gone and I was old
I couldn't move / I couldn't breathe / And darkness was upon the face of the deep

Sublime Sun Tattoo
02:47
|
|||
|
Think of a time when you were brand new / now look at your Sublime sun tattoo / the yellow ink has lost it's hue but it's still blue / caribbean blue
Think of a time when you wondered who / was singing "Caribbean Blue" / bashfully you asked the shopkeep if she knew / and she knew / it's track 2 on Enya's Shepherd Moons
Now stalkers stab themselves for you / Got a hundred milli and a castle too / but there's nobody to share the view you must be so blue / caribbean blue
Don't be waiting for a lifetime / don't go wasting all of your life

Friend Request
02:11
|
|||
|
I've always been a little sensitive / ever since I was a little kid
Always crying in my little crib / I had them tear stains all up on my little bib
Oh damn, even my tummy sensitive / no cream in my coffee, can't have any cheese
Do you believe me? I can't get high / I take a shower ever morning just to have a cry
I'm squinting at the sun / this is a friend request / I swipe right / they swipe left
I'm looking at the first snowflake of the winter falling in slow motion

Worrier Spirit
02:05
|
|||
|
Don't read the comments / don't get in the van
Listen to your worrier spirit / your worrier spirit's got a plan
How long has that thing been here? / does it look like it's grown
Listen to your worrier spirit / your worrier spirit ought to know
Worrier spirit / worrier spirit / imagine the thing and then fear it
Worrier spirit / worrier spirit / working the pedals while I steer it
Don't let the sun in / and don't get out of bed
Listen to the worrier spirit / the worrier spirit in your head

Bogus Journey
04:50
|
|||
|
Eyeballs / clawed apart and dangling from / human skull
Bones and rotting veins are the mirror's frame
Held low / with tentacles
But there's no escaping from the place inside the wall
The place inside the wall / the place inside the wall
Guns and roses / bloody noses / Bill and Ted's journey was bogus
Death plays / upright bass
But there's no escaping from the place inside the wall
There's no escaping from the place inside the wall
The place inside the place inside the wall

Unsolved Mystery
01:59
|
|||
|
Is this really who you wanna be? / is this really who you wanna be? / is it an unsolved mystery? / or is it really who you wanna be?
There's not a lot of years in a lifetime / I'm gonna drink a bunch of beer in the sunshine / there's not a lot of years in a lifetime / I'm gonna drink a bunch of beer in the bath tub
Is this really who you wanna be? / is this really who you wanna be? / are you out raging against the machine? / and is that really who you wanna be?
There's not a lot of years in a lifetime / I'm gonna drink a bunch of beer in the sunshine / there's not a lot of years in a lifetime / I'm gonna drink a bunch of beer, it'll be fine
Is this really who you wanna be? / is this really who you wanna be? / is your name David or is it Steve? / and is that really who you wanna be?
There's not a lot of years in a lifetime / I'm gonna drink a bunch of beer in the sunshine

Give Yourself a Hand
02:25
|
|||
|
How does a smile even get so sharp?
Looks like your face is gonna fall apart
It's only time / it's just pretend / so get on stage and do it over again
I don't understand / give the girl a hand
You're feeling big now everyone can see
The naked lady sitting on your knee
It's only cash / it's just a sense / so get another hundred from the ATM
I don't understand / Why don't you give yourself a hand?

The Early Stuff
02:31
|
|||
|
Oh, i just remembered, you know what? / I don't give a flying fuck
Real friends: pretty, pretty good / But don't confuse that with facebook
My face looks like I just drank grape crush when you say "I only listen to the early stuff"
Eh man, that's rough, I can't help you / it's like you got a giant Sublime-sun tattoo
And I don't mean a sublime sun tattoo / I mean 40 ounces to freedom, bruh, are you a bad fish too?
I don't usually write rhymes but when I do, It's about the sound the wind makes through the pines
Got a light? has anybody got a light? got a light?
|

Funny, Eh?
02:24
|
|||
|
Arm wrestling a drum machine / funny, eh?
Vacuuming the piano keys / funny, eh?
A guy walks into a bar and then sits down and drinks a beer
He fiddles with the coaster and he starts to disappear
I don't hear any laughter
I don't hear any laughter
Just a dull, unending chatter
Playing a show in an empty hall / funny, eh?
Diarrhea in a tuba bell / funny, eh?
The bartender is talking to a woman with blonde hair
In walks a Ukrainian and no one seems to care
But I don't hear any laughter
I don't hear any laughter
Just a dull, unending chatter
There's no laughter

Two Speeds
01:40
|
|||
|
I bought a bike with three speeds but you know all I got was two
I never made it to the top of the charts but I'm happy here with you / I'm happy here with you
My loving comes in two speeds / oh you know it goes fast and slow
But I'm saving it up for you in the morning and that's all you need to know / It's all you need to know
I can't always make it up a steep, steep hill and when I see another guy I swerve
But I can peddle it hard and grip the handlebars when I meet you downtown after work
So let's put some grease on our chains and go ahead / I will follow you
No we ain't got much in this shitty world but honey, two speeds will do
Two speeds will do / two speeds will do
|

Even If It's Not
03:21
|
|||
|
Everything will be okay / even if it's not
So if the sun won't rise today / It's bad, bad luck
Yeah, it's bad, bad, luck
Everything will be okay / even if it's naught
So if the son won't rise today / It's bad, bad luck
|
||||
13. |
Think Negative
01:55
|
|||
|
It's easy to say when you're feeling okay / way harder to do when you're stuck with bad news
Bad news / bad news
It sucks when you wait in a room with that name / tough to find PMA when you're stuck with bad brains
Bad brains / bad brains
|
||||
14. |
Maybe I'll See You
02:42
|
|||
|
I saw this dude / who looked a lot like you / he looked a lot like you
I thought I knew / the voice and the tattoos / the shirt and hairdo / but he turned around and I didn't have a clue
I saw this bro / who looked like somebody I know / someone that I know
The lights came on / I looked around, bro was gone / no duck, no swan / something changed but I couldn't put my finger on
Do what you want to / and maybe I'll see you sometime
Do what you want to / and maybe I'll see you sometime
Maybe I'll see you sometime

Music for babies / I'm writing the song
And when I'm saying "babies" its not like I'm quoting Vince Vaughn
Avoiding the accidentals on a plastic glockenspiel
One hundred and forty BPM / now you know it's real
Music for little dudes that shit in their pants
Are you trying to tell us something? We don't understand
Should I put a sticker on the window of my automobile?
Doing a hundred on the 401 / now you know it's real
Yeah, you know it's real

Shaved Gorilla
01:42
|
|||
|
I'm pressing the car horn / it goes beep beep beep
While she's singing along with Pavement in the passenger seat
I am a shaved gorilla full of worry / I wanna get to the destination but I fucking hate the journey
How do you do it every day?
Why would you do it anyway?
I sweat to God I'd go insane and stab that guy in the Escalade
How do you do it every day?
Why would you do it anyway?
A shaved gorilla cannot explain

I Get Shitty
01:46
|
|||
|
Only one toothbrush / only one bowl
Only one light on in this home
Too much room in this giant bed
Too many pillows for my tiny little head
Only one man / only one hand
I talk to the kitty but he can't understand
12 pack of hot dogs / 2-4 of beer
I get shitty when you're not here
I get shitty when you're not here / I get so shitty
Cuz a table for one is not too much fun
Even though I can wank out as loud as I want
There's only one toothbrush in the toothbrush holder
And now I wanna hold her

Rivers
02:11
|
|||
|
I don't mind reading between the lines
You know I try / oh, I try
When Rivers run dry
I was on your side
When they gave you a three out of five
And I'll still turn a blind eye
When Rivers run dry
Rivers run dry
Rivers run dry
Rivers run dry

Bored Of The View
02:10
|
|||
|
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored
I'm getting bored of the view
I'm sick of myself
I'm sick of myself
But darling I'm not sick of you
I'm waving goodbye
I'm waving goodbye
As my spirit becomes something new
Hey Ho / Joey's saying "Let's Go!"
And that sounds fine to me
Who am I to disagree?

Soaker
02:06
|
|||
|
Soggy pant cuffs rolled high
All the stuff you own floats by
What a soaker / what a drip / what a bad scene
You're looking at the scariest thing that you ever saw
The waters coming up and it won't go down
The waters coming up and it won't go down
It doesn't wanna drain
And now there's fluid on your brain
Where's the plunger?
Where's the hole?
Where's it all supposed to go?
You're looking at the wrath of God in the form of a flood
The waters coming up and it won't go down
The waters coming up and it won't go down
The waters coming up and it won't go down
The waters coming up and it won't go down

Lucky Break
02:03
|
|||
|
It's my job to play the chords
It's my job to rhyme the words
It's my job to add some verb and press "record"
I play the bass line with my thumb
It's my job to sit and strum
It's my job to hit the drum
It's not my job to stay up late
It's not my job to move cassette tapes
It's not my job to sit around and wait
What a lucky break

In The Middle
02:16
|
|||
|
I got way too high / and then I got so bored
I was a frightened child / and then I felt so old
I loved a wicked girl / and then I was alone
I tried to see the world / but I just missed my home
Why can't I be in the middle?
Somewhere in the middle
Why can't I be in the middle?
Somewhere in the middle
We filled it to the brim / then we spilled the whole damn thing
Filled it up again / my friend
But somewhere in the middle I'm in jail
And you're the chisel
Doing time
Fighting
Fucking
Eating
Shitting
Boredom
Violence
TV
And I think I'd rather wait for my pancakes in silence
|

Well I gave in / cuz I got to thinking / every gathering we have seems to end up in the kitchen / and when we bought this place we said we'd fix it up but never did / until this fall, cuz you know / we're gonna have a kid
So I tore down the ceiling / popcorn stucco was buckling / the cellulose in my hair and nose and shirt was unforgiving / after two trips to the dump with Madadam we got rid of the mess / over a metric ton of stucco and lathe and insulation / man, I was impressed
And then we hired these guys out of the phonebook to drywall and mud the ceiling / they were carrying on like meth-head banshees arguing and screaming
The electrician from Greencor was timely and professional but way too expensive / so once that was done I hesitantly tackled the rest of it
I stripped the cabinets and bought new hardware from Lee Valley and painted them / satin finish enamel white on the top / light teal on the bottom
Tore up four layers of linoleum and ceramic tile right down to the original plywood / screwed 4'x4' Fiberock into that and finished with some composite / we got these black and white vinyl tiles, the kind that Gill always wanted / Man, we were up until midnight cutting on the table saw / just wondering what the neighbours thought
Drove to Cambridge to get these 8' long oak butcher blocks - that I cut to size with a jig and skill saw - to use as a countertop / after we sanded and filled the gaps and treated it with mineral oil the wood's lustre really came out / we'll probably get one of those double sinks but we're just gonna use the old one for now
Got some salvaged antique floorboards from our neighbours Scott and Trina / they were throwing them out / Gill sanded them down / now i'm sticking them up / and today I'm installing the last of the brass and the pulls and the hardware that Gill made herself
This past weekend I sprayed loose fibreglass insulation and I'm so glad my friend Brad helped
I painted the walls / I put some silicone caulk in the gaps / and I screwed in the shelves
I'm almost done and it's looking alright / I did pretty well for a musician / and what's more I feel a sense of accomplishment building my girls a kitchen / I did alright for a musician / building my girls a kitchen

White Gold
04:12
|
|||
|
I took a good job with the city
moving round the snow
Lost a few hours of sleeping
Drinking coffee in the cold
Now all my clothes are work clothes
Both thumbs cracked and sore
They gave me forty hours and I asked for thirty more
White gold
This one's old and salty
This one's fresh and dumb
This one's probably okay
Oh, but I hate every one
Multiply the overtime with the calculator on my phone
Counting down the hours until I can go home
White gold

One, Two, Oh
One
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
2018 don't fuck me like 2017
Could you chill out with the death please?
Won't you chill out with the grief?
I wanna keep my friends and family and a bit of self esteem
2018 don't fuck me like 2017
2018 don't fuck me like 2017
Is that too much to ask for?
Is that really so obscene?
I wanna have a Merry Christmas instead of Halloween
2018 don't fuck me like 2017
But if you must make it worse
Oh if you must make it worse
Could you at least buy me dinner first?

I've Got a Bottle

I've got a bottle of ink
I draw the things that I think are funny and sad
When life is a drag I'm happy that I've got a bottle of ink
I've got a bottle to drink
I talk and talk about things that I think are funny and sad
When life is a drag I'm happy that I've got a bottle to drink
I'm never gonna fucking let you go
I'm never gonna fucking let you go
I'm never gonna fucking let you go
I'm never gonna fucking let you go
I'm never gonna fucking let you go
I'm never fucking gonna let you go

Do It For Her
01:36

Well God bless you half Portuguese girl
Shoveling the sidewalk while I'm gone
Waking up to a 2am alarm clock
I don't wanna wake up now but I'll do it / I'll do it for her
I don't wanna wake up now but I'll do it / I'll do it for her
I don't wanna wake up now but I'll do it / I'll do it for her
I don't wanna wake up now but I'll do it / I'll do it for her
Times four / times ten / and then I'm gonna do it again
I don't wanna wake up now but I'll do it / I'll do it for her

Yeah, I'm coming in with my tennies on / buddy, I'm a jerk
I'm bumming darts till the darts are gone / buddy, I'm a jerk
I'm a dimwit / I'm a creep / I'm leaving piss on the toilet seat
I got this great idea for an art show / buddy, I'm a jerk

Third verse similar to the first
You know I'm coming in with my tennies on / buddy, I'm a jerk
I'm bumming darts till the darts are gone / buddy, I'm a jerk

Outta My Head
02:56
|

|
I think I need a doctor / have you got a light?
I can't get to sleep tonight
I'm thinking 'bout the bank account
I'm thinking 'bout my life
I'm thinking 'bout a fist fight I had in junior high
Oh well you know I could go to any place in this world but still and all
I can't get outta my head
I can't get outta my head
I can't get outta my head
I can't get outta my head
Until I'm knocking on that door
I got restless everything / I got itchy feet
Kurtis Blow is playing Basketball in my head on repeat
I like slam dunks / take me to the hoop
My favorite play is the alley-oop
All the ghosts that haunt me are only melodies
But with that said...
I can't get outta my head
I can't get outta my head
I can't get outta my head
I can't get outta my head (they're playing basketball)
I can't get outta my head (they're playing basketball)
I can't get outta my head (they're playing basketball)

If you don't think you can do this / you've got excuses
Excuses
If you're feeling worried and useless / you've got excuses
Excuses
Did a twelve hour shift / then an ultrasound / now the water in the toilet bowl won't go down
If you don't think you can do this / you've got excuses
Excuses
If you'd rather sleep than make music / you've got excuses
Excuses / Excuses / Excuses / Excuses
And I'm never gonna tour again

Who Doesn't Know
02:16
|
|||
|
I'm a baby and I'm dumb
But I'm the only one who doesn't know
Who doesn't know
I am a private eye and I'm spying on some guy who doesn't know
Who doesn't know
To wake up inside a nightmare where everything is wrong
The cannibals are cooking up a stew
So blame your older brother
You should of known it all along
The cannibals are looking straight at you
It's me / I'm in disguise
I should probably tell me wife who doesn't know
Who doesn't know
Who doesn't know
Who doesn't know

Before the sun hits diaper hill I'm gonna chill

So small and mad / I can't resist smiling at your little fist
Mmm mmm
Whadday say? Whadday say?
Whadday say? Whadday say?
What are you trying to say?
You mad right now
But I'm a dad right now
It's 3am and I'm holding a bottle of breast milk in my hand right now
Breast milk / you made my day

What does adjuration mean?
I heard you say it and I nodded
I checked the definition on my phone and then forgot it
If I try I can look sharp
But I'll never be book smart
I'm distracted by what's shiny
That Operation Ivy record still reminds me
All I know is that I don't know nothing
So I'd love to just hang out
Before the dealer flips the top card face up on the felt
And I'd love to be hungry and then eat
And thank whatever brought the whole world falling at our feet
And then stop and stammer
I'll try and fix grammar:
The only thing I'm sure of is my own crippling lack of knowledge

Then the alarm goes beep
Beep beep beep beep beep
Then the alarm goes beep
Beep beep beep beep beep
So tired but I won't go to sleep

RUFF
RUFF RUFF RUFF

A hotdog is a burger

Everything is a sandwich
Everything is a sandwich
An open faced tuna melt is a slice of pizza
And a slice of pizza is a piece of lasagna
And a piece of lasagna is a bowl of pasta
Everything is a sandwich
Everything is a sandwich
Really what is a sandwich?

I can't tell
Is this The Stones or The Kinks? I can't tell
Am I a guy or a chick? I can't tell
Is this a stone or a brick? I can't tell
And if we throw it will it float or sink? I can't tell
I can't tell if it's funny as fuck or really fucking lame
So I'm gonna try it again
Wha-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't tell
Is it an elbow or is it a tit? I can't tell
Is that some dirt or a piece of shit? I can't tell
Did someone put something in my drink? I can't tell
It's not a timor and it's not a zit / I can't tell
I can't tell if it's funny as fuck or really fucking lame
So now I'm gonna dress like The Crow
Crow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Crow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh baby
I couldn't tell you where the apostrophe goes
Maybe between the ass and balls?
Somewhere there's a finger that I lost in the spokes
And what I'd be without you, well, God only knows I can't tell
I can't tell if it's funny as fuck or really fucking lame
So I'm just gonna wait over there
I can't tell

They Changed What It Was
02:38
|
|||
|
Everybody wants to be Mac DeMarco
No one wants to learn guitar though
Boy, when I was your age we didn't wear ball caps on stage
I toured the states in a short bus, horn rims, and a bowl cut
And I can remember inventing skinny jeans when I was a skinny teen
Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a safe space
They changed what it was
They changed what it was
And where the light shines now just hurts my eyes
They changed what it was
They changed what it was
And I guess that's how it goes for the old guys at a rock show

Stay Down
02:39
|

|
There's a ring inside my head
There's a bone sticking out of my leg
You know I'm beat / I'm on my back
You know an arm shouldn't bend like that
There's a lust for blood in this casino tonight
Lost in the octagon / stay down
Now amount of Monster is gonna make this alright
Lost in the octagon / stay down / stay down
I'm taping out / I'm gonna die
When is the ref gonna stop the fight?
Evil spirits haunt this arena
I've felt your cold breath and now I've seen ya
Lost in the octagon / stay down
Lost in the octagon / stay down
Lost in the octagon / stay down

Maybe when we're old
If the money lasts
We'll get in our pod and go back
Tribal warfare
Dirty Water, dirty air
No animals, no magic arc
Dystopian oligarch
You maniacs
You blew it up
But before the crash
Before the rust
It was Heaven
It was Heaven on Earth

Feel Like Roy

Cursed incantation:
Rigid body
Decomposition
Putrid blood
Lacerations
Diseased human
Fermentation
Parasite
Now Awakened
You're only a head on a spine
I feel like Orbison now cuz I'm crying
I feel like Roy because I'm crying now
I feel like Daniel out walking the cow
Those gloomy high school queens
With their dresses over jeans
Will know what this means

I'm Dying
02:19
|
|||
|
I'm dying
Done trying
There's not much time
I'm holding on for you until July
I'm dying
Bad wiring
Defective parts
Lethargic and corrupt
I can't restart
Shutting down
Won't respond
Power off
Force eject
Spinning wheel
Do not save
01000010
01011001

Part One:
Return of the Grack
Return of the Grack
We're coming back like a panic attack
Straight off the top: I'm a severed dread
Tie it round your finger so you never forget
Part Two:
I'm thinking of that cool, cold high school queen with her blue dress over her jeans and I don't expect you to know what this means
Part Three:
Waiting around here like a mannequin with khakis and a cardigan
About as clever as a bowling pin
But this dummy don't take no shit
I'm lost in the thought of it
Yeah homie don't take no shit
Straight bitter at the thought of it
Playing the world's tiniest violin while gliding on banana skin
Cool like a Canadian raisin
I was a grape now I'm dry as shit
Feeling bitter at the thought of it
Oh but this raisin don't take no shit
Staring off in the thought of it
I'm hanging tough here like a mannequin with plastic hair and flawless skin
But I'm not sure where to begin
Part Four:
Sorry sorry sorry
That's my never-ending story
I'm in that swamp of sadness
I lost my damn pony
I lost my damn phone
How's my homie supposed to phone me?
I found a baby rabbit last night in the backyard
Checked back on him in the morning
He was rock hard
Sorry sorry sorry
So I'm digging a hole and I'm putting him in it
Sorry sorry sorry
So I'm bringing the grackle back
It's been a minute
Part Five:
Hey, some changes haven't been saved
Hey, Would you like to close anyway?
Why do nerds grow goatees?
Why is this red light on?
We will always love Kamp Krusty
I broke that bong
Now I own that bong
Hey, some changes haven't been saved
Hey, Would you like to close anyway?
No No No No more laptops on stage

I, Parasite
02:37
|
|||
|
I am a parasite
I am the armpit
I am a freelance music publicist
Some blogger's dick
I'm sucking it
We are the barnacles on a sinking ship
No life jackets, no dry land
No honor among sycophants
I'm expecting payment in advance
Oh, did I mention that I'm also in a band
We sound like Deathcab with a hint of Björk
And my speech is punctuated by snorts
Man, I didn't see your set because I'm too short
And when I die I hope it's on a pitchfork
I'll do what you ask me to do
I'll say what you tell me to say
I'll think what you think I should think
If you pay
I am a parasite
I am the armpit
I am a vampire
I am a carcass
I am a parasite
I am the armpit
I am a freelance music publicist

Don't Want Much
01:56
|
|||
|
I don't want much
Just to hold a sacred charm
Or a burrito in the park
I don't want much
Just to touch the candy stars
Or a can of PBR
I don't want much
Just to hear the voice of God
Or whatever's on the iPod
Don't want much
Don't want much
Don't want much
Don't want much
I've got it all

Bigger Than Jesus
03:40
|
|||
|
I couldn't before
Now I can sort of whistle along
I've got a circle of friends sort of hanging on
Followers and likes
In some circles bigger than Christ
Bigger than Jesus and Jah
Bigger than Jesus
Bigger than Jesus
No Father verging on the altar
We're gonna live forever
New daughter marching on the water
We're gonna live forever
Probably bigger than Christ
Move over Muhammad and Buddha
Bigger Than Jesus

I Wanted To Cry
04:39
|
|||
|
The sound of an armpit
All kinds of lame shit
A flood in the basement
Dead Dad Christmas
I wanted to cry and I wanted to weep
I wanted to write the songs of the weak

This Guitar Was Stolen Along With Years Of Our Lives
by Ceschi
supported by 23 fans who also own “The Complete "Dad Year" Recordings (2017-2018)”
Sometimes you come across an artist that is compelled to do what they do. I appreciate the musicality and the arrangement and the artistry of the songs. He sings and plays like his life depends on it. I appreciate the humanity of the lyrics… Like reading Tortilla Flats, or watching Nobody’s Fool. Ceschi is a bright star. I’m glad he’s loose in the world.
