Liner Notes
Lyrics
A misplaced goat awoke in a different country but didn't really mind "The garbage here's as good as garbage anywhere else so what does it matter?"
A small farmer awoke in a big city but he made the best of things he started a farm on his fire escape growing pens and pencils, paper clips and staples tools for the office trade and he made a decent living
Comments
nice contrast in the two verses. the first makes perfect sense and should be a motto for all the displaced persons. the second is a delightfully ridiculous solution to displacement.
I also love your creative bone. I definitely look forward to your work every FAWM. And this song doesn't disappoint. Great work!
These lyrics are so cool. I can't decide if they are comical with a touch of depth or incredibly deep with a touch of comedy. Either way they are awesome and thought provoking and somehow gently sweet. Maybe it's the great musical accompaniment, which reminded me of the very beginnings of '80s alternative music. Plus, you have absolutely mastered how to maximize the impact of the melodica in your arrangements (as well as surreal, layered vocals). You've inspired me to put a melodica on my "to get" list, so someday....
Such surrealistical lyrics... Is it odd that I can relate ? I do feel misplaced in an absurd world on a regular basis. And didn't we all grow pencils the whole last february month ? I love the melodica sound. There seem to be so much irony in it !
From the Farfisa onwards, the bent chaos guitar is particularly appealing, but the whole jangly package draws you in and entertains. Nice one.
Really cool music! Acid-twisted lyrical craziness!
All good things together here: surrealistical lyrics, melodica, rubber bass and this special way how you play the guitar … oh, is there also the Farfisa? Good title! Enjoyed this very much!
Ha! Have no idea how you come up with these things - always a fun surprise! Liked the pause right before "matter." Nice twist.
yup garbage is garbage! oh and a goats a goat! so creative again. one day I will chat with you about what some of these mean! not that it matters my interpretations are fine!
