lyrics

There's a lot of talk about control
there's a lot of talk about how to do it right
and how everybody's doin it wrong
blow it up
give geologists a treat
put a road through it
so the rest of us can be
anywhere else

what did i expect as a kid dreaming of flying out the window?
what do i expect now that everything i love is problematic?

pops was a sailor, man, so what did you expect?
didn't quit the sea till his body got wrecked
as for me, i take what i can get: concrete killing green
what is honor when there's no going back?
sure one man quit, but there's still gill nets
and all these hives burning out night skies

well i hate em, but i'll use em
you know me, any excuse to stay gone

walls to build a road, anywhere i wanna go i go
walls to build a road anywhere i want
(we feel the same
but i want to leave
i understand if you feel the same)

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
