SONGS |
Blather |
|
Manhattan |
This is a completely true story, except I went a month late this year.
Oh and I'm also a coward. |
|
Pushing Up Daisy |
This song I think manages to simultaneously and completely feel two opposite
ways about the same event . |
|
The Arc of the Covenant |
This is a love song slathered in Douglas Rushkoff and maybe a little Michael
Neumann. |
|
Freezerburn |
This is a song about refrigeration
technology, and being political, and maybe even climate change a bit.
I've updated the lyrics since. |
|
15 min / 4 years |
This is a song wondering
how, if we're not involved daily in our democracy, it can possibly be there. |
|
*** new:
Power In The Blood**** |
This is a Chomskyan overview with even
more atheist Biblical imagery, recorded 3 years back on some glorious
fella's bass guitar. |
|
Colorless Green |
This is a song about some very dear friends of mine and Noam Chomsky and
Cthulhu and me. |
|
(Every Inch Of My)
Freedom |
This is a song that I avoid ever thinking too closely about when performing
the instrumental section. |
|
The
Masturbation Rag |
This is a song about not loving
someone enough. |
|
What I Know |
This is a series of nice visual puns capped with an implausible gesture. |
|
Hitler |
This is a song about what we would all do if we had that time machine, or
were hell to freeze over. |
|
Land Called Jesus |
This is a atheist crucifixion porn. - Hang on, that's the whole
website! - waiting sadly for Obama with a hammer. |
|
Don't Kick The TV |
This is a mournful love song with an attempted populist dig at liberalism
attempted in the middle. |
|
The @$#* Starts Here |
This is a song that I
tried to work the "muttonchops" hairstyle into, but rhyme or no rhyme it
didn't take. |
|
The Red Red Sea |
This is a song that convinced my Mom that
my music was pure idiocy for a whole year after she heard it. |
|
Long Live The King |
This was meant to be longer, but I sort
of like it this way. |
|
Cahoots |
This is a reaction to hearing somebody
say "Some of us have lives" and thinking "Yes, but with that attitude, for
how long?" |
|
I'm Only Being True |
This is another attempt at
equal-opportunity liberal- and conservative- bashing. One day I'll
rewrite it so it works. |
|
Solid Fuel Rocket |
This is a song that I've since written a
proper ending for, and may even have a recording of someday. |
|
Mean |
This is a song for, and
only for, those who've lost no-one close in the war 'n' terror. Humble
apologies to anyone else are also in the song. |
|
I Love Everybody |
This is an excuse to name the two kinds
of circulation in plants, dragged reluctantly to odd places by the rhyme
scheme. |
|
GKTI |
This is a lighthearted
song about New York getting destroyed, as I felt we needed one in the year
after 9/11. |
|
The World's Big Secret |
This is a song about learning The World's
Big Secret - _again_ - and adding it to the pile. |
|
Fingerpuzzle |
This is an attempt at an Elvis Costello
song, minus the pettiness and the genius and all that. I hope ugly
enough? |
|
The Way |
This is a song about lust
of country, the highest and noblest lust available to Man. |
