about

A 20-minute collection of some of the original songs I've written in the past year. I was originally planning on using most of these for a longer release, but the project has lost momentum and these songs have gradually become their own thing.

Track Name: Heels Over Head
Wake up! There's a morning song for you
It goes like:

How could I have carried myself here?
Some skank must have poisoned my drink
And I've got five minutes till the landlord comes knocking
I'm so tired I can't straight think

Wake up! There's a morning song for you
It goes like:

How can I help my friend to find his way back home?
I would walk 100 blocks so he won't be left alone

Dear landlord who's fast advancing:
Walking is as hard as dancing
Dear landlord, please don't evict me
Walking's hard but dancing is so easy

How can I help my friends to travel home in health?
I would ride 100 miles in the trunk all by myself

She's not afraid of the fuzz machine
She's not afraid, still she screams
Track Name: Head Over Heels
I feel that something is wrong (I don't feel wrong)

Head over heels
That's the way that it should be
But you don't care how it feels
When you walk your feet right over me

But no matter how you hurt me (You hurt me girl)
No matter what you said (With what you said)
I'm still wishing for your heels (I want your heels)
On my head
Track Name: l'Orangerie
Garden teeming with oranges!
Track Name: Same Mistake / Catch Us
When I woke up in a burning bed of roses
I really thought that I was awake
A thousand thorns began to pray and scream
I didn't think that it was just a dream
And when I woke up in my bed this morning
I went and made the same mistake

We're going down, down, down in to the falling mine
If luck is with us, she will catch us just in time

Oh, catch us, love, love

We're crashing fast now, we're sinking like lead
Oh come around now with your pillow and catch our heads

Oh, catch us, love

Windows shake
Windows fly open
Windows break
Windows are broken

We're crashing fast now, we're sinking like lead
Oh come around now with your pillow and catch our heads

Oh, catch us, love
Track Name: Ilium Bromide
Helen, where are you?
I've come here to wake you
Did somebody take you away?
He took you in flight, he
Who pleased Aphrodite today

Helen, don't you fear
I will find you next year
And Helen, don't lose hope
I will snatch you with a tug of this rope

I've sailed across this sea
To bring her home with me
Release the helpless thrall
Or I'll crush your weighty wall

Helen, I am near
Please wait another year
And Helen, little swan
I pray you won't long be gone
Track Name: Orange Thirst
How I thirst for oranges!

Oranges! Garden teeming with oranges!

Je l'ai trouvée dans l'orangerie
Je l'ai trouvée si belle
Quand je la vois, mes yeux sont pleine de fruit
Mais je ne suis pas plein d'elle

Lazy water!
Though you caress yourself like a cat along its legs
You will never steal the zest of orange
Orange juice is my one true compatriot
She will never betray me, nor I her
Many mornings know my undying lust for her
I drink her by her gallons

At a time in days of old
I once held her sister lemonade in my view as the supreme beverage
Her sweet and sour gustatory allure took my buds for a trip
But I soon saw through her façade
And discovered the true visage of lemonade
You sugary temptress!
To Hell with you!
To Hell!
Orange juice was there to comfort me in my time of crisis
In my time of dying
So mellow and delicate
I love her, truly
Track Name: Same Mistake Again
When I woke up in a burning bed of roses
I really thought that I was awake
A thousand thorns began to pray and scream
I didn't think that it was just a dream
And when I woke up in my bed this morning
I went and made the same mistake
Track Name: Psycholicopter
I didn't study for Psychology, so
You read me textbooks on the phone
You never gave me an apology
For calling back at 5am
The morning of my big exam
I wasn't really mad despite my tone

The softest voice came from my speaker
And left a ring around my ear
I didn't think I'd be the weaker one but
Now I'm writing rhymes you might not hear

Well, I dropped her gentle as wind blows
Helicopter, flee from my windows
