lyrics
Time will pepper you with punches
and knock the lies right out of you
leaving the canvas riddled with the myths of the green
they'll have to carry you from the ring
with your feet dragging
knowing you can't speak of what you've seen
They have an instinct of what you'll say
so they turn and look away
like something else caught their attention
with a desperate faith they try and prop it up in its place
these Rube Goldberg conventions
Why would you question the route
stuffed between walls of shoots
like bovine shuffling in line
you might take the time to consider
even though the pills bitter
the spot on your vision that's blind
I got no solution
but to know it's a delusion
hope being just the great wishful lie
it's some scary dark shit
confronting only the present
with dead batteries in your flashlight
And I don't know what to feel
after the last myth falls
when there's fuck-all behind it to fall back on
now I'm out on the skirts
wondering what's worse
you can starve on the food of solitude
dismantle the bad as well as the good
try balance on thin air or what's really there
then wave and kiss yourself goodbye
I've been listening to this record for over 30 years (!) It still holds up as one of the best pure pop records that you've probably never heard. A gem, to be sure. Tom Jessen
I'm including this just because it was the first thing I ever heard Dan make and I think it's necessary to start here. Quirky, honest, sometimes goofy and funny, but always heartfelt. Tom Jessen
I can't think of the perfect Rock'n'Roll song without thinking of Deuce and a Quarter. Great insight on the cooking of that great Americana record of Kevin Gordon. Javier Tijuana
