the Daze of our Lives

about

This was to be included on the first batch for
"Return To Spiderland", along with "Pornography" "tragedy" "delores" "clean disease" and "summer winter"
'Pornography' got fucked up and scrapped and we bickered about money and never returned upstate to finish recording the rest of our songs. Seth did the best he could with what we gave him, which was one afternoon.
We got to mix this one at the Ed Sullivan theater. Super thrill. Dave Grohl and Pat Smears names were still on the console in the basement, written on masking tape. The foos had played "the Pretender" on the Late Show the night before.

lyrics

Puerto Rican Bourbon Chicken
Dorm Aliens in the snow.
Pre- Madonna pasta primavera
lobster bisque-tits on the go

these are the days these are the phases of your life
they will be over soon
these are the moments still-framed in your mind
they will be leaving too

you can't waste it masturbating
talking on your cellular phone
it's Tiny Tim drunk on a whim
speeding away in an NYC Taxicab yea

these are the days these are the nights of your life
they will be leaving you
these are the moments still-framed in your mind
they will be leaving too

Vice and wasting time is complacent
Dancing fingers on the floor
walk a walk a day when I leave you stay
hallucinogenic bore

these are the days these are the phases of your life
they will be over you
these are the moments still-framed in your mind
they will be over soon
they will be leaving too
they will be over too
they will believe
they will believe they will believe in you

these are the days these are the phases of your life
they will be over you
these are the moments still-framed in your mind
they will be leaving too
they will be leaving too
they will be leaving you
they will believe
they will believe they will believe in you
