I'm sorry you don't think I deserve the job If you don't rub me down, I can't talk to your son You love me too much for a man who writes books You can't buy my body with your mother's good looks Coffee displays of predator love I think I'm winning back the concept of autumn Your love is a sports team that I'm gonna get tired of You're in the body zone (Airports and theaters) You're touching God's face (Churches and highways) You're building me a home (Hospitals and the stratosphere) Your soul is double-taped to a red kite (A red kite, a red kite) Your face is a plaster cast holding my bones together I'd hold you forever if the moon wasn't baking the tape out of our future All I want is a promise A handle to save me from the devil Something to make me feel the wind outside Three words to save a beautiful bride Something to wipe the snot off of her nose

about

Another single ... the album specter had difficulty haunting me up in Berkeley, CA where I had moved to complete my degree in Recluse Studies ... there were many free-floating numbers ... "Menu Sans Prix," "Marvin Sunshine," and "Lovely Afternoon" are all portraits taken at the Reason software gym, muscled arrangements, with the same level of reverence and bad samples found in early They Might Be Giants songs. I didn't even use two of them for anything until I threw these back online by request. My cousin had flown out for a visit where we ventured out to the Winchester Mystery House to get another perspective on insanity. She is featured on the title track and the cover art. Like the cover says, "Please no children."

(Technical note: I did not have the lossless files for any of the alternate versions [tracks 2-4] which is unusual for this era, and also, who cares.)
