Mother’s Milk Burmese canvas made of glass your body smooth as silk silhouettes chained to the past may I taste your Mother’s Milk Inland fires sweep the ash though ocean floods may come each wave that finds its way to shore gives life then to its young

Silver Rush 03:22
Silver Rush Candy Sunset and Pink Windows cream colored princess with the strawberry hair up the wall and off the road When you come down from the Silver Rush, Will you be my friend when I’m having my heart attack, heart attack? Will you be my friend when I’m adopting my character, character? Gideon of the sun? Sixteen tons of leather isotopes and broken weather “goodnight, I’ll be seeing you” a lit cigarette bled dry with the manta ray

Origami 04:09
Origami I move right along you done made my shoulder sore well, I fired off my pistol I’ll go to jail so long Tell me momma tell all me late afternoon Tell me momma Lord, tell me late afternoon well I go off in that long dress Lord, better tell me soon Oh why don’t you tell me what is wrong with you? Oh I’ll tell it won’t you bring your love running out in the sea your love’s on the plane above Headlights see them, see them breech I won’t pray it I won’t even preach Won’t you preach your love? Won’t you preach your heart to me? Don’t you preach no harmony no, I want something to believe

Big Balloon 02:20
Big Balloon I’ll tell you what we’re gonna do there’s something here for me and you Stony river of the golden calf you come riding up upon his back And the moon is just a big balloon hanging in a life that ends too soon

The Underground I met a girl from the underground you’re showing me you don’t deserve me the appropriate monkey face with elaborate face expressions alert for the runaways Malibu ‘77 Where strippers sleep and I can’t eat and you’re so fucking vicious freeze like movements the emotional void it looks so streaked and muddy a lightning spire fifty-six miles lodged in the windshield the priest was just a common thug another ballet documentary In the faun’s afternoon with the Chinese conjuror, Nijinsky could not tell you lies to change your definition The rare old whale mid storm and gale in his ocean home will be fly too high the streets are gold the crowd is the ugliest cut a giant in might where might is right altering my biochemistry Mass exodus seven hundred miles bring in the consultants victims of proof and falling in sex and music works now in civil suits Mirabile Mysterium the truce it is so fragile love can be bought and sold oblivion is lamentation oblivion’s lamentation Send me a satellite, my sweet love to shake these flowers from their trees

The White Horse When I rode that white horse white horse he rode me down When I rode that white horse white horse he rode me down I saw that trail of broken lights bad blood was coming down Got your water, flash and brighter honey got to move yourself Got your water, flash and brighter honey got to move yourself Have mercy on your weakness can’t help nobody else

Champagne 02:30
Champagne Disassociate Disassociate Jet Strip Girls White Bitch She got a comic book ring You got a comic book ring I spy crazy mixed up you what’s in the box? A butterfly collection? So long with the Airplane Blues it’s gonna drag you across the river I’ve been sitting here for days staring at the curtains more orange than red Stairs so steep you have to walk them backwards just to get down You gotta go man, go

Rhinestone 03:07
Rhinestone Rhinestone jungle let’s pretend that it’s paradise starlight student I bet it tastes twice as nice Plucked from the cherry myth convalescence in and out of style we must pass into magic I’ll bet you’ll be gone awhile

Thermostat 03:34
Thermostat A girl out on the sidewalk she was crying in the sun with the bleeding ghost of Max Baer when came down the Queen Of Scum licking dirty tables with her urban warfare tongue I want to wash all the love right out of my hair she want to spit on the ground it lands everywhere You want to be remembered electric? When the sun it don’t shine? The spin is eclectic no more Universal Mind Woke up Sunday night black haired girl she smelled so sweet for explosions in your minds eye and the people that we met the ones that point at targets, so precise and so direct
10.
Chandaliers 05:03
Chandaliers How much time do you want? How much? I see crystal chandaliers and fires burning low experience induced by ritual, my eyes as black as coal Into the womb, into the jungle where the lions mane is white as snow all spaced out in a primitive life, there’s no other place to go Positive Acid Bad love gone forward Negative Acid Good love gone backward Up and up and up you go How much time do you want?

about

The Golddust Mannequins Los Angeles, California

A cloudy Sunday in early Fall. You're laying on a hammock watching the leaves cling to the trees with varying degrees of success. Equal parts lackadaisical drifting relaxation and the existential dread of Winter's loom. A modern take on early Bowie mixed with Meddle era Pink Floyd, and maybe a bit of the vibe of Apples In Stereo with just a hint of darkness. ... more
