falconhoof1 A unique blend of post punk ideas and sharp sense of humor in the same vein as Frank Zappa. This is a band that more people should be taking notice of. Favorite track: Wade/Cull.

Lay down on the object ‘till they push it down Lay down on the object ‘till they push it down I'm on the phone with your icebox She said something enticing In half time Strut into the office with an ironed suit Strut into the office with that great big suit Feel that stark fluorescent lighting A stare across the conference table Cat’s eye Reception Cat's eye Reception Highlight You get down on the floor before they start to run You get down on the floor before they start to run The lady with the headset She says something nice to you "It’s sure to be a pleasant day" Head onto the desktop till it pushes through Head onto the desktop till it pushes through That picture that you Xeroxed It’s sure to last forever Correction X it out Correction Get it out of my sight Strife is sun And night is the pantheon We are devoid of oxygen Built complex The first of many projects We are devoid of oxygen North and south Adapting to live without Please tell me we’re more than Please tell me we’re more than just oxygen Scentless hounds Protecting their filthy crowns Please tell me we’re more than Please tell me we’re more than just oxygen

They rolled a big sack down to me from Saccular Ridge Oh god, I hate those people They just sit there banging on drums all day and all night Particulates The National Anthem Cows Riverbottom Nightmare Band

I must be frightened Of disco demolition I swear I’m pudding I have no incandescence A rose bleed cow eye A man made off with our van We showed him flashing He was naked and pleading Paralyze the masses With your stare Eons pass with many days Chrome listed on your spine Tells you how long to queue Making me into you into me into And now the kids are Dressed like famous host man The tracksuit hippies Their unused stupor breaks out (Emotional monologue)

Look at the kids playing at the playground Individual awareness abound I think not I think not You’re not safe From my dog You take an arctic turn Arctic turn But nothing can save the ship’s boy He grabs the wheel Heads straight into the berg He went his own way

Stable all the time It's stable all the time It's stable Saddle Ridge (Does not) Meaning to (Work out) Climb (Fine) Getting soaked (Within) Western farm (Market) Lines (Limes) Does not work out fine Within market lines Transmit same show twice They transmit same show twice They transmit Successive Heretic Back down, back down We got ourselves another hootenanny comin' on Back down, back down We got ourselves another hootenanny, show 'em all your ankles Back down, back down I don't even know why Back down, back down We got ourselves another hootenanny comin' on Back up, back up Where are my eyes? I can't see straight in front of me Back down, back down I don't know where I'll end up And there's no one to greet you And there's no sights to see you But at least there's tabletop soccer And when they found him, they said The right lung was a slightly better lung Not a particularly great lung But it was a lung nonetheless And they found him at the bar hunched over the foosball table There was no opponent there And they noticed all the lights were on The best player turns the plastic man in time I gotta feeling that he’s gonna get right That he’s gonna get right on the mark tonight

Disinfectant and time make you ill Face the left way, the way your dad goes right I’m sick Deep house makes your brain brain brain bleed But now let me tell you how much you could be saving! Among a field of daisies I spot a slammin' piece of ass I see her cry out to me but I hear nothing A lazy ambulance climbs up a 75 degree incline A room full of children who look like their parents who look like their parents scream "West Haven Best Haven" A split second decision, I run for my life The lazy ambulance speeds up and attempts to absorb me into its metal chassis Process the widow and make her a blaspheme We fall into line as she steals all our plastic Later I woke up washed ashore on an island made of six pack rings and expired chicken RollerBites I had a taste of one and it was fine A room full of children who look like their parents Inherent subconscious, demented, metallic An abandoned church on the side of the Trans-Canada Highway houses every copy of The Foresters’ debut album Sun Songs I had a taste of one and it was fine Dead politician is used as a life raft Confused and complacent Impair higher judgement

It was appreared It was untold It has been dead from the outset It can finally tell The difference 'tween The water and the wings of an insect It can finally tell The difference 'tween The water and the wings of an insect She made a hoo, so I'm gonna do a hoo, too I talk real smooth It gets me by I dominate public market I can finally tell The difference 'tween The water and the there goes my darling again Your hoo is better than mine That’s good but I can beat you at your own game I work a day job and own 15 planes Secretaries bow to me Pull the plug and encumber me Flowers hanging in the air and gradually out of the way of the rainbow, because I am tall Human suffering and struggle is good and continues under the terrible happiness of Howard Ang mga bulaklak na nakabitin sa hangin at unti-unting lumabas sa landas ng bahaghari, dahil ang mga ito ay matangkad Ang paghihirap

Slag Heap 04:49
Lone object makes itself known On granite loam It calls its home The Jersey mammal projects The climate mask Completes his task, does his task Fast walk Slow dive Feels leathery, naugahyde Phase out (Quick time) Fast talk
 (Inside) A man from Macedonia yells at me in broken chavspeak The hotel lobby looks nice Refurbished in '99 That’s fair enough I guess I haven’t seen Someone familiar yet Fast walk Slow dive Phase out Fast talk You’ve been down Slowly leaking Run uptown Lost dog eating

Thick Priest 01:06
You gotta come down, son, it's like three celebrations in one All the jockeys are gonna come, start spitting all over your lawn Making you theirs, theirs and nobody else's When I went down to the pier to get some information You know I asked 'em for some information They told me that he's a total wackjob

This is a robbery I say again, this is a robbery, take your Mask off, mask off the brace face Make me a mountain covered in desolation Make me a mountain and spill it down the side Watch me, watch me induce it Carry the water No more Mr. Brightside Wait on the sidelines Flaming, flaming house Sun This is a robbery I say again, this is a robbery, you must take your Face off, face off the pavement You’ve been left for dead You’ve been left for conversation starters, but you must leave your Dead pet, dead pet at home, girl Carry the water No more Mr. Brightside Wait on the sidelines Flaming, flaming house What’s left in place? A quiet home Carry the water (A sign that you're alive) No more Mr. Brightside (I’ve had it up to here) Wait on the sidelines (Time and again) Flaming, flaming house (There was a corpse at UMass)
