FM-2030 05:02
FM-2030 – prophet on the rocks, Upwing luminary – Hey man, what’s up? How are you doing in the future? Did it hurt a lot to defrost? 30 years apart from everyone you used to love? 2030 – we’re never gonna die Gonna live forever – ageless, you and I Hypersonic aircraft I gotta be in Jersey by lunchtime I got a date with my man Ira Over a platter of freedom fries “Jettison your body, Ditch your lowtech life” I’m ready for a change in values I’m eager for it to arrive 2030 – we’re never gonna die Gonna live forever – ageless, you and I 2030, 2030, 2030, 2030 2030, 2030, 2030, 2030 2030 – we’re never gonna die Gonna live forever – ageless, you and I 2030, 2030, 2030, 2030 2030, 2030, 2030, 2030

Spinning 03:46
She doesn’t even care She’ll go in her underwear Did last night happen My head is still spinning And everybody is waiting for me Got off from a train Same as yesterday No one said a word My head gets spinning We wave at passing cars And the sidewalk’s paved with stars Keep quiet or You’ll wake the sleeping lion And gum stains guide us on our way home A picture from a friend Took me to the place You always want to know It’s the end of the beginning Help me once again Just one of those days You always want to know It’s the end of the beginning

Winegum 04:55
Winegum is a friend of mine She’s the raddest kid I know That’s the secret for how we get along We’re keeping secrets all the time She don’t mind if I’m seeing other boys Or if I spend the night away She don’t mind if I’m playing with her toys She says that’s totally ok Winegum opens her third eye And all the other kids are running scared, I swear I saw ‘em She knows how you feel before you know even That you’re feeling And that’s the reason why She don’t mind if I’m seeing other boys Or if I spend the night away She don’t mind if I’m playing with her toys She says that’s totally ok Winegum is my best friend We go back a long long time Winegum is my best friend We go back a long long time Winegum is my best friend We go back a long long time Winegum is my best friend We go back a long long time

I guess I can’t complain But something’s bugging me Something in the water Something that I can’t see What’s in this weed I’m smoking? Shoulda stayed away from toking Stuck forever in a bad dream What a sucker What a sucker What a sucker from outer space Can’t put my finger on it Something’s not quite right Seems like all the parts are there But somehow misaligned Could be mercury retrograde Or some black hole sucker from outer space Fucking with my serenity What a sucker What a sucker What a sucker from outer space Some days it’s no use Getting up at all Drop dead, forget about it all Feels like I know you Don’t know you at all Can’t make no sense of it at all What a sucker What a sucker What a sucker from outer space

Are you really in love? Sometimes it’s hard to tell Apart representations from the real deal You turn me inside out You lay your eggs under my skin Try to devour me whole Who are you talking to now Spinning around yourself A mirror image on a Shiny surface Spare me your sympathy I’ve read your poetry It really drags me down I wanna go back home I’m tired of this place It’s time we both went home And forgot about this place Are you really in love?

Petrichor 03:34
Up on a hill top At the end of the world In a car all out of gas Stranded somewhere All of our footsteps Are cast in stone And every word we’ve said Follows us home Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air? I look at you And time stands still You look at me And time stands still And nothing matters When our eyes meet Yeah, nothing matters And our hearts beat Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air? Can you smell the rain in the air?

Indigo 05:04
Millennial, you’re entitled kid, it’s true Collecting sick notes that your doctor wrote for you You’re always busy running You’re never going anywhere I don’t know what you’re running from I’ve watched my MTV I’ve passed my Gen X 101 And if my walkman fades I know exactly who’s to blame Running out of battery Running out of friends None of this belongs to you I’m done keeping my cool I’m breaking my own rules I’m going back to school and this time Everyone’s my friend Indigo, you’re deeper than just blue 00 80 80, you busy howling at each Scorpio moon It’s time we bury the jackal It’s time we speak giraffe Take everything you need from me I’m done keeping my cool I’m breaking my own rules I’m dropping out of school And this time I won’t be back again

Bummed Out 03:12
A feature from a magazine Spread out on the floor Juliana digs Nirvana Don’t wanna die now anymore I’ve known them first I’ve been a fan right from the start You don’t even care ‘bout Courtney’s art Music’s not for everyone I know that that is true But I’ll forever be a fan I owe it all to you Dear diary, oh how I wish To quit this lame old town I wanna start my own band We’ll go travelling around We would be like Alison And Tobi and Kathleen I wanna become part Of that scene Music’s not for everyone I know that that is true But I’ll forever be a fan I owe it all to you Maybe when I’m older I will have a best friend too A wicked girl just like me Who’s always late for school We will start a zine and we’ll go Check out all the shows And never feel bummed out anymore Never feel bummed out anymore

We are machines désirantes Something inside someone Abandoned goods that don’t belong Here or anywhere, gone, gone, gone Pretty little one You’re such a pretty little one Yeah, you can really turn me on The hidden truth Buried between the lines Between the limbs Of you and I See her move to the beat And then she’s gone I love you Machine Désirante Pretty little one You’re such a pretty little one Yeah, you can really turn me on Pretty little one You’re such a pretty little one Now let’s get down and have some fun Pretty little one You’re such a pretty little one Yeah, you can really turn me on Pretty little one You’re such a pretty little one Now let’s get down and have some fun Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes, Machines Désirantes

Search is the game You’re playing now Money for lunch Bachelor chow You’ve got your pieces all lined up Black knight takes pawn White shifts to black Watch it transform Cloudy skies will linger on When you wave Zen Arcade goodbye Goodbye Zen Arcade That’s your life now Don’t you complain You wanted it that way It had to be that way A case of the mean reds The deadly orgone cloud Flush it down the drain Make it all rain down Cloudy skies will linger on When you wave Zen Arcade goodbye Goodbye Zen Arcade Cloudy skies will linger on When you wave Zen Arcade goodbye Goodbye Zen Arcade Cloudy skies will linger on When you wave Zen Arcade goodbye Goodbye Zen Arcade

Quench 04:42
You know, I wanna disappear over the horizon Glide into the jetstream like a bird flying South Further I travel, the more my body wants to keep moving And never settle for the profanity of home Never looking back Never looking back I’m an unanchored vessel adrift on a raging ocean A desolate child, a stray cat out hunting in a field Don’t have a single memory, all my being is future I love how from above everything looks so small Never looking back Never looking back No amount of water could quench my thirsty heart No amount of water could quench my thirsty heart Never looking back Never looking back
