about

"I can’t believe you did that!"

I like phrases like that because, depending upon the situation and tone of voice, it could be either a good thing or a bad thing. Even more intriguing is when it’s both a good thing and a bad thing. This one's probably from around 2009.

LYRICS

You can’t believe what you’re doing
You can’t believe
[Sung 4 times]

When you watched it grow
Did you ever even know
You would learn to love it so

And you can’t believe what you’re doing
You can’t believe
[Sung 4 times]

When you let it out
Did you ever have a doubt
You would soar above the clouds
And you do…

You’re dancing like an egalitarian
You flutter like a Beatle too
Your hands are comets in darkened skies
And they’re orbiting you

When you watched it die
Did you ever wonder why
You were taken by its lie

And you can’t believe what you’re doing
You can’t believe
[Repeat, fade, etc]

about

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.
