lyrics

My girl, she hates me, and if I were my girl,
I think I would hate me, too,
I would ignore it, but, ooh, I just adore it,
If I'm the rubber, she's the glue,
I've paid my dues, and I ain't got much to lose,
Now that I have gone and lit her fuse,
My neighbors hate me, and if I were my neighbors,
I would hate me, too.

She says:
"This is egregious, and I don't agree with it,
Outer space doesn't need any more stars."

There's the old adage that goes, "cry when you need to,
And laugh, laugh while you can,"
If life gave me lemons, I'd only make lemonade if,
Life gave me a lemonade stand,
I've got no manners, and everybody tells me that,
The manners make the man,
I often cry even when I do not need to,
And I never laugh even when I can.

She says:
"Boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider,
Outer space doesn't need any more stars."

I've been to college, and I've got some knowledge.

My girl she hates me, and if I were my girl,
I think I would hate me, too.

C.W. Franz II
by C.W. Franz

In Charlie's words, this record is like travelling "all around the world (and the Mid-west) in just 36 minutes!" He's not kidding. I can't identify half the instruments he used, but they sound great. Kenny Hoffman

Mood Indica
by Mood Indica

I often consult Ryan about my own recordings. Listen to his most recent EP to find out why. The arrangements! The humungous synths! The layers! The songwriting! I couldn't do any of it. Great stuff. Kenny Hoffman
