TEEF!

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

being home for more than three days at a time
takes some getting used to.
like space shuttle re-entry.
yesterday was a fix-it visit to the apple store.
today is a dentist appointment.
tomorrow=haircut.
one event a day is about my limit.

over the last 2 weeks, in between our shows,
mark has come up from LA to work on new songs.
and along with an unhealthy amount of disney
channel watching.. don’t ask.. we got some really
great shit done. no lyrics yet, but we have about
7 or 8 songs dialed in….
the lyrics are always the last ones to the party.
and until they come, i’m just chipping away.
accumulating bits and pieces. stealing.

oh, i did write what i think are the final lyrics for
the middle 8 of one of the new songs…
it’s currently my favorite lyric ever, but i’m sure that
will change…

the song has the working title, ‘alison krauss/robert plant’
the lyrics are:

‘it’s warm enough to trick the birds into singing,
it’s warm enough to give ‘em hope.
but we both know, it’s dead winter
and that season’s change… but we don’t’

can you dig on that sad shit?!
oh yes!

alright, that’s it for me..
i’m off to have my teeth scrubbed to a radiant
ivory… if you happen to be in downtown SF
this afternoon, look for the beacon that is my mouth.
the second sun. like they have on superman’s planet.
