lyrics
I ain't nothing but a damn dirty ape
but me and him were the same
until the monolith came
Now I'm troubled by the knowledge he gained
from some alien race
the day that Julio changed
The gift of sentience is wasted on the sad
I can't tell what he's thinking but it sure looks bad
I just want my best friend back, is that so much to ask?
When one lord giveth, which lord will taketh back?
There must be some dimension I can't perceive
He must be somewhere in some strange reality
But here at my feet, I feel his wide-eyed body breathing
I still see Julio, does Julio see me?
Now I ain't nothing but some damn dirty ape
but me and him were the same
until that monolith came
Now we're existing on two different wavelengths
and I can't give chase
ever since Julio changed
but me and him were the same
until the monolith came
Now I'm troubled by the knowledge he gained
from some alien race
the day that Julio changed
The gift of sentience is wasted on the sad
I can't tell what he's thinking but it sure looks bad
I just want my best friend back, is that so much to ask?
When one lord giveth, which lord will taketh back?
There must be some dimension I can't perceive
He must be somewhere in some strange reality
But here at my feet, I feel his wide-eyed body breathing
I still see Julio, does Julio see me?
Now I ain't nothing but some damn dirty ape
but me and him were the same
until that monolith came
Now we're existing on two different wavelengths
and I can't give chase
ever since Julio changed

Vile Tyrant and the Middle Men
by Naeemah MaddoxThis is probably the best rock record of the 10s, Naeemah shreds on guitar, flute, violin AND vocals and her melodies go to incredible places

The Cashmere Cassette
by Carol Cleveland SingsThomas of Carol Cleveland Sings graciously allowed me to use the first verse from his song "Blink At Surprise" in the song "Target." Fine frenetic bedroom pop, the nicest Geoff you'll ever meet.

Fingers Crossed
by Flavored CardboardYour review is public. Writing something brief but thoughtful here can help win you new fans as surely as writing “me like” can ensure they write you off. 200 characters remaining
