"I quit my job to look for cold raw gold" is what i was thinking about trying to make a living being in a band. Frustrated and half-crazy and bitterly disappointed, my brain tried to escape. This is just a sketch of the song. We were going to add guitars, horns and real instruments to make this song a band effort, but I scared everybody when I sang these scratch vocals - I ripped off my shirt and punched myself in the face. A lot of the songs we wrote would start off with synthesizer music on a sequencer, then we'd build the song around it. This one never made it past phase one. I still like it because it's tweaked.
Lyrics[]
- I quit my job to look for
- Cold Raw Gold
- They said numbers can be like games
- But I can't wait I need
- Cold Raw Gold
- Those games I don't want to play
- Don't calm me down
- (I don't want to know)
- Don't calm me down
- (I don't want to know)
- Don't calm me down
- (I don't want to know)
- Don't calm me down
- I'm feeling crazy!
- Everyday
- Morning after morning
- I trap my breakfast inside my house
- Now it's 2PM and I'm out on the loose
- I've got to make it inside somehow
- When we go hunting
- We never ask why
- Who will be rabbits
- Who will be pie
- I've got to get in shape
- I'll show you I don't mind
- Get off the couch
- And leave myself behind
- Somebody's got to be alive somewhere
- I can't be the only one inside here
- Tell me if you've seen anyone
- Or maybe this is just not my year
- Last night I caught my brain trying to escape
- He tunneled his way into the Country Store
- Over and over and over again
- My mind told my brain to
- Let go of my face
