about

recorded this on June 27, 2006 directly to built in mics on laptop.

did some with guitar and then tried ad-libbing some lyric ideas before being interrupted by a phone call from my friend (and roommate at the time) 84 Caprice, aka Cornelius Noll.

lyrics

Sometimes a song is your only friend
You start at the top and play till the end
Over and over and over again
Your friend is true
Time means nothing to you
Time means nothing to you (huh?)

Sometimes a song is your only friend
You start at the top and play till the end
Over and over and over again
Your friend stays true to you

Spoken:
Sometimes a song is your only hope
You sit on the couch and stare at the rope
Lamenting what seems to be a lack of dope
Your song make you smile
Time seems like the enemy
Time seems to prey
Time seems like an eternity
But time is only 3:33
*phone rings
(oh! Cornelius)
Sometimes a song is your only recourse
To finding sanity and remorse . . .
Hello?
"Hey Schindler."
