this heart of mine it's an early riser
the rooster crows and i'm wide awake
this heart of mine it's a real slave driver
i don't think it knows it's supposed to break
i packed my past in a big black sack
left it with the rubbish by the railway tracks
this heart of mine it's an early riser now
this heart of mine it's a real hard worker
always got a hand in this and that
this heart of mine it's a real slow learner
i don't think it knows it's supposed to crack
i packed my past in a big black case
put a smile on both sides of my face
this heart of mine it's a real hard worker now
this heart of mine it's a real bullshitter
stays up all night just chewing that fat
my dad used to say you can't kid a kidder
this heart of mine's not sure about that
i've ditched my past in a big black hole
i've got a bone to pick with my soul
this heart of mine it's a real bullshitter now
Every one of the songs on this album are cracking good songs. Not a dip in performance throughout. Influences vary but amid the poppier numbers there are hints of The Velvet Underground. followjohnreed

Dirtbag Transformation: "What is this?" was my first reaction. But what an amazing song. It reminds me a bit of the Pixies in how it pulls together dissonance and then resolves. malfunction54
