Cover art for Birds (On A Day Like Today) lyrics by Kay Kay And His Weathered Underground

official from the booklet:

home come i don’t wake to the sun no more? when pixelated jackals say it rains it pours my stubborn curiosity leads me right off course and i guess that’s why marky ran away to a sunnier L.A. he found his brain in an apartment in chinatown come on we can get oh so nervous and antsy baby girl that’s why i created this world where you can come and find me when you’re just so bored and your shape is bent from working the department and i know you’re tired but i am complacent to pace around in our apartment cause when i rest my head i feel the fear of falling and in my own town i drift to a far off land cause that’s the way that it works on a day like today please forgive me for my lack of words the notes and adjectives are slowly crawling down my spine and it seems each of them can’t find a way to make any sense of things just like me and repeatedly the paper men say that it’s all wrong and i got is sedatives and these damn songs man i grew up on the superstitions which is probable cause for my lack of ambition at all we gotta’ get out today
