little update

i have been trying to get some mason proper tunes started.
got a few idea(r)s.
these won't see the light of day for a while.
i've got a good melody and some lyrics going for one.
it's been pretty stuck.
maybe toooooo catchy?

bug lung baby songs are backburnered at the moment in favor of getting some mp under my belt.

i'm thinking finishing a new mp album and a full bug lung baby album by the end of the year is a pretty solid goal. we'll see if me (and my comrades) can make it happen.

new old song: pigeon toes

i didn't think i'd get it done this early in the day.
i was all ready to be disappointingly nonsocial later.
glad i don't have to.

cat out of the bag and safari are gone.

this song was hard as hell to finish.
i started it probably 2 years ago and shelved it till now.

here is pigeon toes.

Pigeon Toes by buglungbaby

made a tourniquet from the tassel of a graduate
left high and dry at the altar as
those wedding bells sing "ding da dong"
and we sing another sad song.

we tried a more vivacious melody
but it came out wrong.

how could you come here and say that?
how could you come here at all?

oh, i'm not a fool
but my pigeon toes are blistered
from pacing every night
on the gravel outside your house.

give it a try
give me some kind of sign
give it up, you pathetic split pea soup drinker
give up the ghost as a tip to the hostess

made myself a part of it.

how could you come here and say that?
how could you come here at all?

making it real

i've been working on one song since posting the last two,
this one entitled "pigeon toes."
it has proven to be a real problem child for me.

technical issues,
compositional uncertainty,
peeing on the campfire in front of the other kids,
you name it.

i am resolving to place my nose firmly against the grindstone tomorrow,
and getting this thing online.
i am serious.
i will grind the thing right off if i have to.

cat and safari will go offline at the same time.

if you're counting on me to do anything else tomorrow,
please refrain!
