Voices in my head and voices on the phone
The IBM 5150 power up, the fax machine drone
Living in spaces that seem temporary
Every dial tone gone ordinary
and outside the window
the big orange on Decarie
All the waitresses there, the roller skates
they wear. Yeah, the roller skates they wear
I have all this fire
I'm the coffee that gets you wired
I'm a chevvy that you admire
All the clothing in your dryer

Seven spoiled tomatoes rotting in the windowsill
Six old coffee pots with faces smiling politely
Broken TV antenna, coat pocket full of mints
Ugly rag doll with a cigarette, dirty little fingerprints
I want to stay
I want to stay but I should leave
A crack in the view master, everything gone to shit
with sun spills in the attic
A 1996 Yak bak busted as fuck
the creepy crawler oven, run a muck
I don't wanna be forgotten like this

Filming awful situations
if you don't do it, you're no fun
No apps to neglect
just impulse to help someone
The human disconnect
Bionic flesh, black or white
held hostage hearts by the cynical plight
I see a wishing well of Indoctrination
horticulturalists of disinformation
Take down my self indulgence, the idiocy of a crown
all common sense, twisted around
Generation degeneration
our second selfs seeking excitation
All you have to do is listen
We could learn from all the world's children
there smiling faces
maple syrup sun glistens
in unfamiliar places
The schoolyard squad, thick snow fort bases
his skull designed shoelaces
Commonwealth, glamorized mutation

Solace And Gloom

At the age of ten suppose I had a friend
someone I could climb trees with
Smiling on the outside
this pain is deep inside
You hurt me
With the shame you put aside
Ville Saint-Pierre
I remember living there
All the pigeons outside the bakery
video store late fee
Do you rememeber the sky ride
a cable car system that travelled over dolphin Lake
somewhere over the La Ronde sector, Expo 67
It seems adults hide their pain
disguise their sorrow
I miss being young
with no concerns of tomorrow
and I remember that swimming pool
at my grandmother's house
Watching thru the other side
Sleeping in the basement to Much Music
on channel thirty five
