i'm always waiting on the wrong bus
trying to get the night to fall
i was walking through the graveyard
and i never saw a soul at all
you were spotted by a waitress
sitting reading baudelaire
the flowers of evil
i see em blooming everywhere
i don't think i wanna live here anymore
come a little closer or close the door
just another soldier fighting a forgotten war
my kids believe in magic
but my belief is growing thin
i trained as a mechanic
but i can't even fix a drink
i know i said i had a good time
but really, it wasn't fun
i'm nearly forty-years-old now
still telling you that i'll die young
i checked into a hotel
nobody saw me signing in
i'm erasing all the traces
of all the places i have been
and all this really happened
it's only the facts i've changed
i'm still waiting on the wrong bus
losing at the loving game

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
