Nick Jones Coming down the freeway Coming like a freight train Trying to say hello Often I hear the freight train Clinky clunky freight train Coming like an old train Trying to say hello And then you see the State sign California state line Crooked like a straight line Cracking up in view Then you see their eyes Would roll The wheels would too The mechanical elves are singing What are they saying? Find yourself you lose yourself Along the way Don’t be amazed Or you’ll have to leave Call it magic Send us a postcard When you reach the astral plane

The fall That’s the time to see Going to the lake Going to have a peek In the shallows.. A shadow forms The rain That’s the time to see He likes it cold He likes it deep In the gallows A monster roars I wonder what it’s like.. You’re spending all your time Hiding from the sun With your big bones

a spark 01:53
I brought your book With me on a UFO They liked it too A Ham on Rye, It’s from me to you A taste of where were from How deep does this thing go? Is it a one-way ticket to hell? The piano It didn’t work it was thrown in the hole Now it plays classical Today The lights out

forest loop 05:40
I’ve been lost in the forest For days It feels like I’m home All the trees are surrounding Squatch’s throwing their stones Old David Paulides Going to write about me About all the things We never see Oh, but they see us Every time we step in the forest Were throwing shit Down Mel’s hole And it never makes a sound … But I can’t complain I spend every day out in the rain At the edge of the tree-line We sit and watch boxcars Count trains that go nowhere

rookies 02:56
6 am It smelled like rain I was pulling my pickup truck Out of my driveway I see a sasquatch In the morning street I see him dig through my trash sometimes Yeah, he don’t bother me Go Somewhere far From these conversations at the bar Dig Deep Down by the river the witches creep I took one last look at that old dirty swirly rotten city They said “how ya doin son?” I said “Ok.” They said “now don’t you talk too much This is your first day.” And I’m backed up I’m back on my own ten I shot a man but the bullet bounced It bounces off of him Go Somewhere long Kid’s got a cannon for an arm Dig Deep I’m intercepted once every fucking week

fallout 04:15
Build up the courage to go outside I hear that life is fun Look at the clock You see four 1’s Is this a sign From above? You walk the long way Down the hallway The door is there But you’re scared. Build up the courage to go outside You hear the air is nice You turn the knob A squeaky hinge The sun is bright You go back in You walk the long way Back down the hallway You’ve tried your best You guess "La-di-da"

butterfly 02:30
Here’s to feeling good All of the time You must have known by now That I’m just some dumb snake In the grass Alone in some backyard Staring at the clouds Aint no one coming over And I aint going out I'm no butterfly I got my reasons why I’m just a slimy worm Nah I can't fucking fly But that doesn’t stop some From jumping out of some plane Through the air You lucky god damn things Aiming for some soft spot In the grass If you’re looking for answers You wont find them here If you’re looking for closure Nothing is ever clear So clean cut and dry Feels like I’m stuck in a maze And if you work real hard You get a shiny grave But I’m trying I’m the garden gnome on the lawn <3
