about

Highly abstract but far from meaningless. Sadly, I can't articulate its meaning much better than the lyrics, but if you would like some keywords, they'd be dreams, drugs, and illogical assocations. Originally written with the intention of closing out the Polyphilo album not yet called In the Year of the Plague. This arrangement is quite different from what I initially heard in my head, and all the better for it.

lyrics

I'm having dreams about having dreams
that keep me up at night
I toss and turn and I turn and toss
'til I just turn on the light

phantom itches, handsome riches
going underground
my mosaic is too prosaic
now that I have found
the fury of the sound

I'm seeing scenes that go unseen
they flash at me all day
the only clue is residue
when they have gone away

phantom itches, handsome riches
going underground
my mosaic is too prosaic
now that I have found
the fury of the sound

and when I wake up I'll still be alone
disoriented and disappointed
and when I wake up I'll still be a lonely old fool

I'm having dreams about having dreams
that keep me up at night
I toss and turn and I turn and toss
'til I just turn on the light

phantom itches, handsome riches
going underground
my mosaic is too prosaic
now that I have found
the fury of the sound

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
