Ah, a beautiful duet. A digital recording. Drum programming by Dave Dominique. I remember writing this song without a shirt on, on a nylon string acoustic guitar. Fake audience applause at the beginning. Nice little piano refrain in the middle. Very influenced at the time by the Flaming Lips, whose album Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots had just come out.
LYRICS:
“I don’t think about the future / and I don’t think about the past… I wonder what you’re thinking, when you’re thinking about me… I wonder… “
“And I don’t know how to feel when I am stuck at home, with nowhere else to go…”
“The morning hits me like a hammer / and the answers never come… I open my eyes, then I shut them, I don’t wanna be awake… I’m tired…”
“That place we go, we don’t think about what we don’t know… I’m leaving here with you… I’m leaving…”
I really like the ending to this song.
“Ohhhh girl… I’m going down… ohhhhh girllll… said I’m going down…… gonna sing it again girl…. I’m going down…”
