Ever feel like a boxed mummy being shipped from one port to another? And the two ports are in a close distance to each other? I think Im nestled in that little fun zone right now. Oh, its cozybelieve you me. Like a down home quilt with down homey smells. I dont feel like Im in control of day to day activities in my own life. Not necessarily in the FIGHT CLUB spectator sense. Maybe more like Im an elderly priest being hired in to get the Satan out of a little rich girl. Except replace little rich girl with colorful East Toledoans. And replace elderly priest with Hermit Morlock. Whatever. Yeah, so theres this obscene and sad circus developing around me every day. My role in this circus is random, polite music nerd. You say Resident Evil I say Cecil Taylor. You say Microsoft X-Box I say Metal Machine Music. This is all stagnant water to you cats. Sometimes I really need to just vent, though. I dont take the typical stance one would who listens to Nurse With Wound or Paul Bley or whatever. It aint like Im making a stance of my obsessions being more important than your obsessions. Plus Im pretty friendlywhich is not common for one who would sit and listen a broken Kirby vacuum and record the results. Maybe my anger comes from the fact that no one digs this shit out here. Some do, but those guys get that Yes, I live in a small town and listen to noise so Im on a pedastol trip. This is just silly in my book. One thing Ive always understood is that there is always someone BETTER at everything you do out there. Also, since when is it cool to hide music away from people like its some country club??? Wouldnt you want OTHER people to enjoy or partake in these activities as well? Ive never understood the secret society of hipsters nonsense. People need to get over the fact that they are COOL and just be REAL. Or maybe I just need to have more of the social lubricant before I go out. Then it really wouldnt matter.

Added two more Nick Cave cds this week. Your Funeral, My Trial and a spoken word/music disc called The Secret Life Of The Love Song. All that remains are LET LOVE IN and NO MORE SHALL WE PART.the days are ticking. As soon as I get some more Faulkner and William Blake in my lifeIll be spittin fire. Bet yer bottom dollar on that shit!!!

Nick Cave People Just Aint No Good
People just ain't no good
I think that's welll understood
You can see it everywhere you look
People just ain't no good

We were married under cherry trees
Under blossom we made pour vows
All the blossoms come sailing down
Through the streets and through the playgrounds

The sun would stream on the sheets
Awoken by the morning bird
We'd buy the Sunday newspapers
And never read a single word

People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good

Seasons came, Seasons went
The winter stripped the blossoms bare
A different tree now lines the streets
Shaking its fists in the air
The winter slammed us like a fist
The windows rattling in the gales
To which she drew the curtains
Made out of her wedding veils

People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good at all

To our love send a dozen white lilies
To our love send a coffin of wood
To our love let aal the pink-eyed pigeons coo
That people they just ain't no good
To our love send back all the letters
To our love a valentine of blood
To our love let all the jilted lovers cry
That people they just ain't no good

It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
They can comfort you, some even try
They nurse you when you're ill of health
They bury you when you go and die
It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
They'd stick by you if they could
But that's just bullshit
People just ain't no good

People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good at all
