The Body 03:34
By daylight - they've dragged the body They've dragged the body - away By dawn's light, all human traces And all defilements - washed away All is quiet, all is quiet - all thoughts quiet He is silenced In the darkness we kept a promise We kept a promise - to pay In darkness, we felt the sharpness Emptied the vessel And prayed All is quiet, all is quiet - all thoughts quiet He is silenced

SO FOR MY THOUGHT'S (REST) MY HEART, MY KNUCKLEDRAGGING.

To Serve Man 02:53
Cling to your cages, cling to your cages, Here there be dragons, here there be dragons, Dear little piggies, Sweet little piggies, Cling to your cages, soon you'll be bacon, Fine line cuts, deep fried nuts Drizzled with reduced balsamic glaze, Dissected and slathered with mayonnaise, Soon we dine! ( ... so, we all die. )

Replaceable 03:17
She sits across the desk from me Sipping cappuccino with the morning newspaper Time Time to get the lecture Time for middle management to pay its dues And every word she says Is reasoned and finely tooled It's the production line Of her manufactured point of view Small Almost imperceptible A movement out of order that Unbalanced the equation Fall A philosophic stumble A half forgotten mumble that has Now been resurrected “You’ve got to go”, she said “A strange malignant point of view” “We cut the cancer out, and in this case the cancer’s you.” Everyone’s replaceable Every picture traceable in a machine’s view Plans are two dimensional and infinitely flexible to a machine’s rule Move them in and cut them out Till you get the product right Get the product right, keep the prize in sight And you will get promoted Everyone’s replaceable everyone’s replaceable And so are you If everyone’s replaceable, everyone’s replaceable Then so are you

Bouncing around here, voices on the phone I've run some races, some I haven't Stopped - To look at this - I'm just a magic Figure 8 Apologist It's just my autocratic norm Coming up aces, all the cards I play I see their faces, beaming out I Stopped - To look at this - I'm just a magic Figure 8 Apologist It's just my autocratic norm Talking forever, dancing on a pin Asking familiars, where have they all Stopped - To look at this - I'm just a magic Figure 8 Apologist It's just my autocratic norm

Royal Pain 02:04
If I can take a moment of your time To flabbergast and make you mine Would it all be hunky dory? In all I do, I will define The glittering will make you blind And all the rest will just be boring Call to me I am your king Come to me and Kneel In my success I am your role So push me upwards to my goal And make your countenance adoring! Call to me I am your king Come to me and Kneel (Chorus of Worshippers): All our pains and all our worries fade in your glory!

about

Elections. Narcissism, Fear and Loathing and the power of promises. Sounds like angst fodder to us! Onward! Forth into the bowels of the pale beast that is our political elite!

All the while, looking over our shoulder and behind the curtain of our bias.

This release is all new material except 'Replaceable', which was reworked for this purpose.

Please enjoy with a fine beverage and tasty morsels!
