about

Thinking to herself, Thin Swamp Crusta Bitty muses about the state of the world as she sees it and contemplates the deeper meaning of life. Is there meaning? Why should there be? Cassette tape could make a comeback, yes it could.

lyrics

I know every leaf
every winter green tree
I know your face
though you hide it from me

I know every canary is mean
every clever man has an aubergine
I know how you come apart
you seem very separated from the start

pitch bend
press rewind
unmanned spacecraft with no eyes
unaccustomed and unschooled
I could be you
I could be fooled
I could hold you in my hand
look at me
no never mind
unmanned spacecraft with no eyes
no eyes

here comes the third mandolin
what is Haydn hiding in?
