Blackflies Lyrics
So your name wasn't in the listing
Or in the catalogue of lists
Or in the error heavily listing.
Oh how could your name be missed?
See the bull moose
Checking out another's rack.
There's no point in this.
There's no point in getting involved
When the outcome cannot miss.
No tracks in the snow, no laminar flow,
Can show you "where to go"
Or "how to extract just where you're at"
And not "become where you're from."
'Cause you're not quite that isolatable.
And all I'm thinking is,
I hope the blackflies don't carry me away.
Or in the catalogue of lists
Or in the error heavily listing.
Oh how could your name be missed?
See the bull moose
Checking out another's rack.
There's no point in this.
There's no point in getting involved
When the outcome cannot miss.
No tracks in the snow, no laminar flow,
Can show you "where to go"
Or "how to extract just where you're at"
And not "become where you're from."
'Cause you're not quite that isolatable.
And all I'm thinking is,
I hope the blackflies don't carry me away.
