I'm a shooting star, gonna crash and burn, baby, crash and burn
My flaming avatar, its my turn girl, my turn to combust to dust
I don't care if its my destiny, its just the way things were meant to be
Please baby do not frown as i drown in a pool of insanity

You know i don't have a clue why Breadfan and the Prince answer The Sandman
Its prepostrous, he's an imposter, can't you see it man
I guess i'm just crazy, Tetragonian, crazy
Probably the only one who sees the truth


Nevermind, there's Too Many Humans, all Sheep, so fucking what?
I just ain't gonna last, I'm a Social Outkast, i'm wandering, i'm lost.
Gonna do some Territorial Pissing, you don't know what you are missing till you've tried
Spraying around, i dunno what i found, but whatever it was it lied.

Lifes just so dim, it does exactly what it says on the tin
No 2nd chances, you pay for your advances, no matter how much you try to get in
Yeah i lay back on the blue grasses, watching the Aurora Borealis
Making love through my looking glass with this girl called Alice

Sure whats the difference between me and you but a point of view?
More than enough, i guess the zeitgeist will do.
Come As You Are, not as you were, as a boring old stiff who forever smoke a spliff
Man i got 1 question, what do you put in this shit?

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
