Terranaut
(c) 2010 Bob Buckstaff/Mike Maimone
Sober now on realizing
most "one day"'s don't leave horizons
You can't drink from what you can't spill
Die with dreams you've left unfulfilled
Backlit booze
future lusting
'round our necks the saints hang rusting
businessman
turned barstool prophet
homeless soul with swollen pockets
Man eat pig
Man chop tree through
Man gon' die
Man now food, too
Trees they fall
Pigs they gon' shit
We're all part of it

Symmetry
(c) 2010 Mike Maimone/Mutts
I met another version of the man I've come to be
a startling perversion of the mirror that I see
The symmetry is scaring me.
The speaker in my head speakin' on reverse delay
The world becomes an echo of what I was going to say
Overwhelmed by input; my thoughts beyond control
Angels, demons, businesses competing for our souls
The symmetry is scaring me.
I can't stop it,
I try to stop it;
The Tells of Parallels.
'Cause it's equal and opposite
once you get on top of it
who'd you put in hell?
Keys don't exist but to open locks
Time still persists even without our clocks
And I can't ignore that I've done this before -
it's happening more and more
and what's in store is starting to impair me
The symmetry is scaring me.
I can't stop it,
I try to stop it;
The Tells of Parallels.
'Cause it's equal and opposite
once you get on top of it
who'd you put in hell?
The symmetry is scaring me.
Yeahow.
Y-ow.
Keeyhow.
Yeahow.

Gone
© 2010 Mike Maimone/Mutts
I said don't mess
with a broken heart
One jagged edge can tear
a man apart
Might feel familiar;
no, it won't feel wrong...
but once it's broke
that heart is gone.
Your love won't make it better.
Better just forget her.
Bloodshot eyes...
sees sunshine, sighs,
and wonders why.

Masquerade
(c) 2010 Mike Maimone/Mutts
Snake Bites & Starry Nights
full of cellophane coated dreams
I can't get you off my mind
I'm too choked up to scream
You live in a room full of mirrors
it's all you ever wanted to do
You say the world looks much clearer when
everybody there looks like you
What a funny little masquerade...
My eyes ain't good enough anymore
and my ears are playin' tricks on me too.
I can't stand your fake little world
so I'm giving up on you.
How do you chew with a tongue like a whisk broom?
Say you could never be so cavalier.
Switching sides like electric slide
well baby, don't apologize if you feel like dancing.
At your funny little masquerade...
My eyes ain't good enough anymore
and my ears are playin' tricks on me too.
I can't stand your fake little world
so I'm giving up on you.
Well, can I dance at your masquerade?

Junior
© 2010 Mike Maimone/Mutts
You been walkin' in the footsteps of your father
Ain't no door you wouldn't close to make a dime
You always wanted to be rich like your father
now you're just like him - you'll only end up doing time
While you're walkin' in the footsteps of your father,
it's toward the penitentiary you fly your kite
And when there's no more wind we'll find you been gamblin'
with everybody's cash - kid your ass is doin' time.
Junior, you've got big shoes to fill.
I been thinkin' about Ohio in December
the smoke stacks dormant as the bramble and the pine
with vacant parking lots, and vacant present hiding spots
when all move from assembly to unemployment lines
So I've been thinkin' about the footsteps of my father
how he did all he could to keep a workin' line
so I'd be proud to walk the footsteps of my father.
and just like him I gotta make a set of mine.
Junior, you've got big shoes to fill.
Whoa yeah...
Conglomerates designed to penetrate
and just take, take, take.
It's what they got Junior learning in class now...
but he won't know it 'til he's on his way back down.
