This song is due for a remaster, as it got way out of hand. 2bad my hard drive died
lyrics
I got a story to tell you
Of truth and lies, and sleight of hand
And everything in between the moral fences
You erected decades ago
Our main character is a broken man
A broken life, a broken interpersonal show
The illustrious tear him down and all he’s left with
Is the words that echo like so:
“I got a broken behind, but I’m too sullen to speak
X out the mind
All worlds will collide
T-t-t-tumbling down”
At the top of the belfry I can see the light shine
I rescind my demands and open up to the sky!
Would you give me your answer?
There’s something kinda wrong with the world
Or maybe I’m the one that’s absurd?
I’m the joker and the joker police
I think I’ll lock myself away and then throw away the key
I kept a topical answer
To chauvinists, and @(#*#%!
To wit: my sanctimony would verify
The vastness of the echo chamber that I was in
Our main battle: misogyny, misandry
And the misanthropic view of the world
I swear I’d drop you fuckin’ kids in the wilderness
To make you understand that what you reap’s what you sow!
At first I wanted to maim, but then I wanted to kill
Just for the thrill
The very birth of a death
B-b-b-breaking the walls down
When I see your duress, I know I’m close to the proof
You sit and squirm like a cancer, open up to the truth!
Would you hear the world’s answer?
There’s something kinda wrong with the world
Or maybe you’re the one that’s absurd?
You’re the joker and the joker police
I think I’ll lock you up and after that, throw away the key
There’s something kinda wrong with the world
Or maybe everybody’s absurd?
We’re the joker and the joker police
I guess that life revolves around you
When you’re stuck here with me

The bathroom in which I was sitting in Venice, Italy when I came up with this idea.
And the voice recorder app on my phone that let me record my potato scratch track of beatboxing and crap humming.
elegant classical + blackened rage = the mad composer genuises, those mad lads in NYC. a fantastic pairing of two typically opposing elements, yin and yang, coiled together into sonic catharsis. 10/10 Polymath
the freshest, finest wayfarer cicerones you'll find on this side of the rockies. young musicians with vision, lyricality, and the emotive power to express it all. "i hope it's a double diamond day..!" Polymath
icelandic mathrock "von" -- zankyou no terror -- charged with emotion, elegance, beauty in undoing, chaotic rebirth. love it. favorite album of 2015 for me; a game-changer. Polymath
