lyrics

“Tubetalk”
Too much rain I’d take a walk,
Broke back cracks in the sidewalk
And the vicious packs run untamed
So I guess I’ll sit and mock
The garbage lines from the tubetalk
But I’m tuning in just the same

Self-deprecation is so insincere, just fishing for praise
From the dry docks attempt to drown
And jump in vain, inane

Done the work you came here for
Still open ends, open doors
Kicked out of your own game
Maybe it’s a touch unfair
That you don’t know that no one cares
I’ll be the first to blame
I don’t recall a thing that I don’t write down
So I lied again, just pretend

Recall the first fall, just a misstep that’s all
Just a presage to recast, not a curtain call
Not at all

Scratches, scrapes, and bites
Dirty mouth dirty fights
My fearless view is tanked again
Drink some more hope for a change
I swear I don’t feel a thing
Just one more and I’ll turn in
When the morning comes, try to explain
Why my head just spins, again

Part Eliott Smith, part L. Cohen, as run through the production wringer of Daniel Ash…Kattenbraker’s baritone voice is pleasant and soothing. The guitar work sweet and mellow and, might I add, deftly played… Portland’s Music Liberation Project
