about

based on the short story of the same name by richard brautigan, this is a tune that's been jangling from my guitar for several years now. in actuality, the songs lost their chart positions, while here they melt into an unharmonious goo. not as subtle as intended, but somewhat evocative i think.

lyrics

i don't want to think of you
as a lover just passing through
there aren't enough days to live that way

so i burn the radio
and i melt the songs real slow
now the music sounds just how i feel

i don't care if you're through with me
i might acknowledge it distantly
when i see you each night in my sad dreams

i don't want to be forgiving
after all there's no crime in living
but there is one thing i can't forget

so i burn the radio
and i melt the songs real slow
now the music sounds just how i feel

about

The Marble Tea image

The Marble Tea Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey

Drawing mandalas and watching Captain Kangaroo...that's pretty much what it's like in here. I enjoy writing songs about my cats and cartoon insects, but I'm also fond of feeling up the tentacles that lead to the oneness of existence. That's the Marble Tea experience.

Recommended for fans of Jonathan Richman, Robyn Hitchcock, Jazz Butcher, Magnetic Fields, etc. ... more
