    Story Behind the Song
    Took about a day to record, was written shortly after the September 11th tradgedy, and to an end it describes our frustration with how people seemed to at the time be forgetting why it all happened, and just going back to life as usuall. Still it's mostly toungue in cheek.

    Lyrics
    I’m sitting in this corner with watchful waiting eyes
    Searching out covert assassins and spies
    And if they kill meI know I ain’t got no regrets
    So could you tell me do I have your attention yet?

    I’m badly rhyming and it’s somehow perverse
    The way my pithy response is just so terse
    And now that that in reference has been set
    Can you tell me do I have your attention yet?

    I’m failing I’m fading I’m cascading into bliss
    I had a terrible run in with a gigantic fish
    In the midst of a casual piss
    I met the bastard with a violent hiss
    And then I took him home to be my pet
    That said, do I have your attention yet

    I’m systematically destroying all of my dreams
    So I can please a happy plastic laser gun beams
    I jumped in the river and now I’m all wet
    So please can you say do I have your attention yet?

    I’m plotting to destroy something truly important
    you won’t know what it was until my suicide rant
    while your watching it all on your tv set
    I’ll be here hoping that I have your attention yet

    I just ate cannibal cuisine
    I’m stalking a mouse I once saw in a magazine
    I just shot your favorite idol star
    While my friend here casually plays his guitar
    I’ve been hinting for years at this single event
    So its too bad I ain’t got your attention yet

    I’m lying conniving, and I’m putting up signs
    I’ve been plotting and planning as I do some coke lines
    I wrote letters to cops and they ignored everyone
    So I guess I go through with the deed till I’m done
    I just ramed some sky scrappers with a couple of jumbo jets
    So tell me you all, do I have your attention yet?
