about

This was an old stereolites song and features Wheelbarrow Tinderbox on drums (aka mike finnerty). I borrowed HEAVILY from an old supersuckers song that ed ved sang lead vocals on. the stereolites played a show at the continental and the band before covered the supersuckers song- instead of my band finding ridiculing me as what I assumed would have played out in my mind, they started booing the band!

lyrics

these words are wrong /the message getting missed
i drove so far/away from all of this
no one can dry the riddles in my head
i'd rather try anything instead
when someone seems to sell me short of my worth

how can a man stand to be so lame
when all his thoughts and words and actions aren't the same?
now's the time, not lost among the past
i want it to go on and on and on it just won't last

every part of you is every piece of me
I'd like to take a page and try to re-write history
I took a cue from the rhythms in my head
i cannot sleep with the leper in my bed
and no one seems to notice all the fucked up things you do

how can a man stand to be so lame
when all his thoughts and words and actions aren't the same?
now's the time, not lost among the past
i'd like it to go on and on and on it just won't last

oh oh oh
