A spooky one from the pen of Dave Harris, who also handles most of the guitars and all of the vocals. A song about America's favorite mohawked cab driver (no, not Mr. T).

lyrics

I gotta have a bite of what you've got
chew it up and start all over again
I call you up, you say that you're not home
I can tell that this is going nowhere

I can see you
but you don't know that I'm there
and do you really care
that I just got a key

I walk the avenue just a step behind
ducking into doorways when you turn
I think I've got a life and a stable mind
holding on to memories I should burn

can you hear me breathing
standing right outside your door
I can't take it anymore
but I can't walk away

maybe someday
you'll give me something more
why won't they unlock this door
they threw away the key

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
