DEEP MADDER

Idea: cryptically deep puzzling lyrics, meant to be studied and dived into and shit, are more appropriate for poems than songs. with poetry, you CAN study the words because you can SEE them, but with a song it should be more direct so that they can be appreciated whilst hearing them.
Plus, the more complicated and cryptic the lyric is, the more simple the song should be, so that it functions more like a poem and less as music. i.e. it should be sung in really simple repetitive melodies (like Thanskgiving). and the more musically-complicated and thus lyrically-hard-to- follow, the more easy the lyric should be to understand.

I was thinking about how I value living one's life in a way that exudes a sense of general gratitude and indebtedness to all fellow humans, but this seems to conflict with my other belief that we all owe each other everything anyway.
Like the shirt that Mount Eerie references in No Flashlight that says "I like thanksgiving because everything is my mother."
But if we all deserve all the help that anyone can give us and it is all of our responsibility to help each other out, then being so grateful all the time doesn't really make sense. or does it?
post comments please.

"My computer's so fuckin slow it's like someone poured molasses on it. Ugh, what the fuck is this shit? Ctrl, Alt, Delete are the most worn out keys on this computer."

It have come to the sad realization that I somehow view using internet symbols as a legitimate method of flirting, and that, sadly, this is the most flirting I've probably ever done.

"They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, but in this case, I think the fewer words the better."

"A guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody. It don't make any difference who the guy is, so long as he's with you. I tell ya, I tell ya, a guy gets too lonely, and he gets sick."

Join us (me) on the evening of the eighth of November at the Cameron House to see three musical entities show their work:
