The Fever of Phineas » Lyrics http://phineas.kimbo.org Let's all drink to the death of a clown Sat, 11 Jun 2011 04:08:47 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Life’s Little Lessons http://phineas.kimbo.org/2010/11/03/lifes-little-lessons/ http://phineas.kimbo.org/2010/11/03/lifes-little-lessons/#comments Wed, 03 Nov 2010 16:27:35 +0000 admin http://phineas.kimbo.org/?p=621 So here’s my latest song, sort of a B side to Mr. Universe. Like Mr. Universe, this also drags up some old Hootenanny tapes. This time Terence McKenna is lending his naturally musical voice. For the rest of it, it’s just me in my office with a vanilla Dell PC, Adobe Audition recording software, some drum clips, a Yamaha keyboard providing the brass and bass, and a couple guitars. Lyrics are just a mish mash of phrases and thoughts and plagiarized Facebook statuses. The song means whatever its elements seem to add up to when you listen to it. And I mean whatever that is very passionately, I want you to know. If it helps any, think of it as a protest song.

roof tiles crackle in the sun
I don’t think I’ll ever go so far
as I did in Paris in 1991

I don’t know who was President
I don’t know what war we were in
but it was all going on
in Paris in 1991

The Parisians were so busy
and the tourists were so busy
and the immigrants were so busy
but me I had a revelation
in Paris in 1991

You ain’t seen Paris
unless you saw Paris
in 1991
