Name: Hark, The Light
Duration: P00H02M28S
Description: More ghost stories. This recording went thru an excessive number of permutations before completion, mostly because the BaM Amateur Cello Ensemble (represented here by a soloist) is truly amateur. Written on and featuring my rarely-heard nylon string acoustic.

lyrics

hark, the light that softly breaks
the stillness of my gloom
the permanent protection of
my temporary room
you can't outrun the setting sun
you can't outfox the hound
so what good are you anyway
why are you hanging 'round

who's that calling on the phone
oh no, you don't exist
I took your portraits off my wall
and crossed you off my list
I couldn't use the tears I've cried
to fill a Dixie cup
so what do you expect of me
why are you hanging up

tell me of your tragedies
a rawness I can touch
I'll offer my condolences
and think of you too much
you know I'll always think of you
you know I'll always care
it makes me hurt to see you hurt
why are you hanging there

GET RUDE!
by Dan O'Connell & The Cast Of 1,000s

Dan O'Connell is an old friend and long time collaborator, but before I'd even met "Danimal", he was recording some parody, novelty and good ol' pop songs all on his lonesome. Rubberstamp Records

Jeffy makes four-trackin' fun. Each cassette he sells has a one-of-a-kind collage for art. Rubberstamp Records
