pull it down off the shelf
give it the love it deserves
each note
thrum
each note
thrum
let it remember
you played it
pull it down off the shelf
give it the love it deserves
each note
thrum
each note
thrum
let it remember
you played it
in which the clay rubs off on the skin
forever
I alone am in the zone
in the antique store
post christmas
a bell and a bamboo
fm cam 1989
carved into the side
go ahead
whatever
we can run around and pretend we’re clever
you and me oh
number three oh
making me know
what I need to know
we can go ahead
whatever
we can run around and pretend we’d never
you and me oh
and number three oh
make deep lows
make neat
abstract, toy piano, weird, beats, polyrhythm, south, ritual, offbeat, odd, journey, exploration
oh that was oh that was oh that too was
oh yah oh yah
everybody’s got their life goin
oh yeah oh ya
but me
making music for
no reason!
au revoir
fake it
til you make it
that is the prognostication
is true
mister you
it’s cool
but never good enough
it’s been read
and said
and you are blue
and never good enough
but baby i will treat you
like a baby
and make you meet me
halfway through
waste a night
let it slip
and never regret
it
just a place to stow away
just a place to go
sleeping like a baby
in the loft
tossed
turned
make me write it down
later
now
cold crosses
glinting in the torch light
world ness
on stand by
