A song about drinking too much of whatever was in that barrel Dumbo and Timothy Mouse drank out of during that scene from Disney’s 1941 feature film, “Dumbo.”
lyrics
There’s a down bridge floor lamp standing at attention. The slats in the hardwood are having conversations. The blinds that shade the window are convulsing. And there’s writing in the popcorn on the ceiling, it’s trying to warn me about the strike at the gravity plant. I can feel it where my ear canal meets my nose. And that’s a place that I could see myself spending time, where my ear canal meets my nose. All I need is thirty more seconds to stretch my two-bit shadow across the room. Not physically stretch, but like an image across a screen, until it pixelates and detaches itself from my feet. Yeah, I’m going to make myself at home where my ear canal meets my nose! Let’s give it up for the madness! Let’s give it up for the mania! I’ll surf an endless sound wave of pain. Turn it up for an overused refrain, while the madness and the mania remain. I looked into the bathroom mirror and crossed my eyes. I gave my chips to the guy on my left, and a drink to the guy on my right. Do the alternate realities created mess with space time? Will I see the consequences of these actions in my lifetime? I don’t want to be the one who decides if the La-Z-Boy gets to have a mouth tonight. We’re leaving earth tonight. What color space suit would you like? Eggshell, creme, or moonlight? Corn silk, bone, or Dutch white? Let’s give it up for the madness! Let’s give it up for the mania! Because I don’t know what else I’m supposed to do, when I can feel the screws that hold my brain together start turning loose. Break the fourth wall for no reason: “Hello! We hope you like our show, and we hope you have a good weekend!”
What a damn solid record! It's the perfect example of why I'm certain that Ska Punk is going to play on the highlight reel when I hit up the afterlife. Scott
