about

Another month and another chance to spotlight on one of the tracks off of Good Busy. As it is December and the end of the year is upon us, well why not make it a Happy Ending. The last track on Good Busy and one of our favs from the album. Once again illustrated by the illustrious TRIK.

lyrics

It was a beautiful dawn,

as the sun peered out from the horizon

and the birds in the sky sang songs of freedom

and the hunters laid in wait in the tall grass.


It was a beautiful day,

as the children gathered free

of Kevlar upon unguarded school yards

and the socially maladjusted wanna be school shooters just stayed at home

in their mothers’ basements

to polish their AK’s, watch pornography, eat bologna

and masturbate over all their ammunition.


It was a beautiful afternoon,

as politicians played hide the salami with their interns,

while at the same time pushing protocols

aimed at those without proper healthcare

cornering them into becoming criminals

and far far away the wheat fields in the Ukraine

are burning a golden hue.


It was a beautiful evening,

to gorge upon

an all you can eat buffet of disemboweled discourse

and to wash it down with the confused cocktail

of conservatives playing good cop to

bewildered liberals who seem to have lost

the fucking plot.


It had been a beautiful day,

one in which I stared directly into the sun

and blinded my own sense of being.

Sarcastic and hazy, trust me I am not lazy

but sometimes I do lean upon the old cliche

that this world has gone fucking crazy.


And by staring directly into the sun

I can blind myself into seeing

the silver linings dancing around all the clouds

raining down upon our communal misery.

The Irrational Library Haarlem, Netherlands

“A halo on a razor edge, a remix of parallel times, the ludicrous sincerity of rhythm keeping the paces of joy and pain in synch. The Irrational Library’s is that score that settles the score for the under-scored.”
