lyrics

Kill me now, I beg you God
I can’t stand the seventh grade
The kids don’t think I’m special
They call me by my last name
This music is the only thing
Preserving my sanity
I put my Kenwood headphones on
And the voices beckon me, they sing:

This is the present that we promised you
A holiday every day
Fiddlers fiddling out of phase with the Fender
Aleatoric mistakes aren’t random

Rabid dogs and Englishmen
That I saw in Life Magazine
They scare my parents half to death
But I know just what they mean
Revolution in the head
Might change your mind, you see
I’m not too young, I’m not too old
I’m right where I should be

This is the present that they promised me
The future will have to wait
Moment by moment, and measure by measure
The melody bows to the discord progression

And when the music was over I went to school
Came straight home so I could be on my own
And that was cool

Through monaural fog
It’s hard to hear it now
I dream in analog
And I compose it anyhow

This is the present that I promised you
A harmony every day
Measure by measure, and minute by minute
You’re never too old, and the sky’s not the limit
