Hehe. You guys are funny.

And I recall the ancient practice of wu wei: that is to say, ultimate patience. Ah Patience, I do recall thee also.


Those poor sensitive aesthetic poets. The course of true love never ran true.

I performed in Patience once upon a time.

As an alto in a schoolboy transvestite girls chorus.

I kid ye not. I told you those Catholics were odd.

I also performed in the Mikado.

As a baritone in the men's chorus, this time.

Our attitude's queer and quaint. Etc.

I guess I was still wearing a dress.

I do so love Wombat, Gilbert & Sullivan, patience, poetry and the far east, the home of daoism and zen and ch'an buddhism.

Back at it: http://worldaround.bandcamp.com/track/open-ended

do I have a list of targets to neuter?
a does it start with a large group of army recruiters?
bro, is that a difficult job sometimes?
is it hard for you to see a kid kissing his mom goodbye?
and did you apologize after he died
or was it back to the grind, cuz you more got cattle to find?
matter fact, who am I to be aiming the blame at you?
If I'm claiming innocence, I'm basically crazy, too
and is it possible for me to sleep peacefully
when I still pay taxes and I keep eating meat?
why are we so comfortable swimming in blood?
like killing is just the high cost of living it up?

...

and when I saw that governments are evil freaks
who cannot be stopped peacefully, do you agree with me?
do you push, come and shove? are you down or not?
have you ever been tempted on the mountaintop?
and if not, what the fuck do you expect me to do?
spend my whole life up here, dissecting the view?
take a bunch of random dots, connect them for you
and try not to get depressed when you accept it as truth?
exactly how long am I willing to wait?
until one small slip becomes a killer mistake?
and will I take it where it needs to be taken?
the seed of creation, or just another meaningless statement?
I leave it to you, and place faith in people who do,
because we came here with nothing and we leave with it, too...

Good stuff.

Is the female vocal on this a sample or a performance that you recorded?
