    Key of G. Has rare E flat augmented chord acting as V of ii substitute...a tight move? Recorded to four track with two radio shack mics. Was easy to record but in retrospect, the groove came out a bit sloshy n'lax, but I still love this recording.
    CD: The Believers   Label: western alienation
    Credits: paul linklater (guit,bass, drums,vox)

    Story Behind the Song
    came out of post surgical depression,man. I had been on the receiving end of some pretty brutal dentistry and was rolling around like a pig for four or five days in my apartment and watching T.v non-stop as the piles of garbage grew and threatened to engulf me and my lumpy futon nest.

    Lyrics
    tell it to me quiet
    so my brain can think
    tell it to me in a whisper
    so my soul won't sink
    you know I can't believe it
    oh you know I won't do it
    guess i must be crazy
    or some kinda stupid

    let it float right by me
    right above my head
    let the action finish happening
    while I'm still in bed
    because I don't wanna feel it
    oh you know I won't do it
    guess i must be lazy or some kinda useless

    the joker leads a lonely life
    the joker leads a lonely life
    too chickenshit way down inside
    and he's to slow to know he mighta
    let her get away for good

    should I never be awoken in a sudden flash
    may i keep right on sleepwalking
    peril in my path
    oh I know I can't be rescued
    but i still hope she can do it
    guess it all seems crazy or some kinda fruitless
