lyrics

I don't believe we met before - don't recognize your face
And I don't think I like it here - let's get out of this place
I have informed opinions but they're lost in all the noise
I need a better job or I will have to sell my toys
I never go to shopping malls - teenagers make me tense
I didn't read the news today - oh boy, it makes no sense
I'm satisfied with "just because" - the reason: just because
I waste the whole night watching cable laughing at your flaws

I can conceive I'm standing here with everything I know
I'm not concerned that hell's above and heaven's down below
And I believe it's hopeless.. it's hopeless.. it's hopeless
It's hopeless.. it's hopeless.. it's hopeless, I do believe..

I never read your magazines - because they're full of blame
I never trim my hedges and my neighbor is the same
I like to drink I like to smoke - I get to 'cuz I'm pissed
While you don't think and you don't vote 'cuz you're an anarchist
As much as I like power bars they do things to my guts
I can't rely on happiness - I much prefer the ruts
They say the earth rotates but I'm not moving from this spot
Where I work like hell so I can't dwell on everything I'm not

I can conceive I'm standing here with everything I know
I'm not concerned that hell's above and heaven's down below
And I believe it's hopeless.. it's hopeless.. it's hopeless
It's hopeless.. it's hopeless.. it's hopeless.. it's hopeless..

I can conceive I'm standing here with everything I know
I'm not concerned that hell's above and heaven's down below
And I believe it's hopeless.. it's hopeless.. it's hopeless
It's hopeless.. it's hopeless.. it's hopeless, I do believe..

Matt Lebofsky recommends:

Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue
by Kayo Dot

A stellar album among zillions in the whole Kayo Dot/maudlin of the Well collection. Sadly out of print. Buy all of Toby's stuff. The more you listen, the more you will achieve telepathy. Matt Lebofsky

All Things to All People
by Research & Development

The latest from this awesome big band. Epic jazz prog love. Matt Lebofsky
go to album
Snack(s)
by miRthkon

The newest album by miRthkon! It's a real mind destroyer. An epic journey through time and space and mud and sweat and fear and loathing and love and rage. The grotesque cycle of life. Matt Lebofsky
