lyrics

left me here to choose
either way I'm bound to lose
add a grain of salt to all my food

reaching for the sky?
you won't get there before you die
lucky if there's any fish to fry

I envision a new system
where everything is different
here, I'm a pretender

I envision a new system
for now, I'm in my kitchen
with nails in a blender

set out on your own
wanted gold, settled for stone
the scavengers have barely left the bones

running to the hills
to get lost in daffodils
reveling in all those natural thrills

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
