I was fishin' by the side of the road,
Servin' up the bait for my lunch.
Along beside me came a brown horny toad,
Lookin' for some food he would munch.

So I grabbed the fish and tossed it in the lake,
Thinking he could eat what he earned.
And if I caught him I would cut him a break,
But if I didn't it was not my concern.

Jackpot!
And I got one.
Got me a sweet lookin' prize today,
Under the son of a gun it'll make you say,

Jackpot!
And I got an idea.
Got me a new kinda recipe,
I got the deal for the meal of the century.

I was walkin' by the side of the road,
Thinkin' I would cook me a meal.
Along beside me came a mad horny toad,
Lookin' for some food he would steal.

So I grabbed the fish and held it up high,
Knowin' toads are known for their jump.
then I looked the toad right in the thighs,
And noticed that they looked mighty plump.

Jackpot!
And I got one.
Got me a sweet lookin' prize today,
Under the son of a gun it'll make you say,

Jackpot!
And I got an idea.
Got me a new kinda recipe,
I got the deal for the meal of the century.

I was sittin' on a chair in my home,
Servin' up the legs for my friends.
(alternate on 9/9/99: Thinkin' about the legs of my friends)
They asked how I got chicken on such a small bone,
I told them it was simply a godsend.

The moral of the story is you don't ever know,
Who's going to want in on your fun.
And up to the porch came a guy I didn't know,
Offerin' up his money for some.

Jackpot!
And I got one.
Got me a sweet lookin' prize today,
Under the son of a gun it'll make you say,

Jackpot!
And I got an idea.
Got me a new kinda recipe,
I got the deal for the meal of the century.

Save the robots
Where they fall
Another one up
Behind them all

Save the robots
Crystallize
The one you stole
Was in disguise

Freeze your focus
Counteract
Commencing countdown
Turn it back

Refusing moments
Peck out words
Was simply angels
Or maybe

They all make me daydream
Trade my peace for
Day old armies save me
Take my piece and..
They all make me daydream
Trade my peace for
Day old armies save me
Take my piece and
Go! Go! Go! Go!

Behind them all.
Behind them all.
Behind them all.

Save the robots
From themselves
Connect their arms
To yourself

Fearless humans
Playing games
Soldered wire
Into your brain

Antennae haircut
Is really nothing
It frees your hands
For the panic button.

Enslave the robots
Like us in tribes
Build your igloo
In summer time.

They all make me daydream
Trade my peace for
Day old armies save me
Take my piece and..
Go! Go! Go! Go!

Behind them all.

Bit by a spider again
The girl had a chocolate bar
with a poem in it
Saying he was not the man

To get in on a two-bit plan
the boy went and parked his car
at the bowling alley
waiting for his ride.

The new idea don't hypnotize
the boy knocked a jewerly store
at the eve of twilight
with two friends of mine

Shopkeep, crack, quick enthrall
he turned, he cocked the shotgun
to avoid the violence
But it was justified.

Nowhere to kick us out
You've got the meaning all confused.
Break down the core reactor
blown all to pieces for the new

Brick broke through the window
The girl awoke to the sound
of chinese lanterns
crashing on the bed.

They raised the burning candles
the boy went across the floor
to the open window
as they crashed the wall

Unknown inside the crosshairs
he took one last look at the girl
as he dropped the handle.
It was justified.

Nowhere (No way) to kick us out
You've got the meaning all confused.
Break down the core reactor
Blown all to pieces for the new

Nowhere to kick us out
You've got the meaning all confused.
Break down the core reactor
Blown all to pieces for the new

and left me but the voice
to warm your heart and spark your soul
yet my words they go unheard

He's being nice to set you free
when at my door a knocking sound
in your heart you're free with me
we'll plant our feet deep in the ground

I wish and pray if god could hear
it's not for money, luck or fame
walk with me and without fear
some nights I dream the days became

These words of love I say they said
all while I walk a different path
My love for you not counterfeit
some nights I dream to steal you back.

I wrote this song
To say hello
Just a few words from me

I play it for you
When you're in my bed
Where you oughta' be

And I could be riddled by those secrets
That make you wanna say
Maybe lets go easy

But life has changed
Don't uproot the tree in spring
when all I wanna say

If only you called on the doctor
waited with kitchen mitts, anticipating
you just have to get your hands dirty sometimes
just like mine.

If only like shooting stars fare
You see what you dare
The thoughts travel elsewhere
Why can't you hijack a comet and fly?
Tell me why I always see
We for tea
You and me.

So sweet Georgia
Why must I try
When you like to rob and steal
and all these people tell me to go find someone else
when you never cut me a good deal

So might I have to mention that we should blow them off
18 wheels and a ride
Miles of paranoia, lunatics in jail
And still we're having a good time.

If only you called on the doctor
waited with kitchen mitts, anticipating
you just have to get your hands dirty sometimes
just like mine.

If only like shooting stars fare
You see what you dare
The thoughts travel elsewhere
Why can't you hijack a comet and fly?

Tell me why I always see
We for tea
You and me.

I didn't mean no harm,
I know there's no alarm,
And now we've made our choice.

There is no turning back,
You've always had the knack,
To hear your inner voice.

But now you tune it out,
And then begin to shout,
Until your face turns red.

And Amos pleads his case,
And you remove his face,
From what was once his head.

And if you ever see me in my dreams.
And if you know that life was what it seems.
And now you wish that it was yesterday.
But that's the price you have to pay.

No time to reminisce,
But time is what you miss,
It seems you've got no chance.

A mask to hide your face,
And wings to win your race,
We've had a change of plans.

And in the thick of night,
With not a speck of light,
And with your fingers curled.

How did you kill your friend,
And have you reached the end,
Of your forsaken world.

And if you ever see me in my dreams.
And if you know that life was what it seems.
And now you wish that it was yesterday.
But that's the price you have to pay.

The confrontation was a necessary act.
We traded in our lives but took a million back.
And in the end, it seems I get what I deserve.
But for one moment's time, I wish I had the nerve.

Chorus

- E 5
- B 7 5
A > D with a - G 7 6 at the end of each line.
- D 7
- A
- E

that is only one way of playing the chorus part. basically you just need to make sure you're throwing in a F# note to a D note below it that resolves to a E note, which is part of the A major chord you go back into. So the whole thing is a A > D progression with a couple notes thrown in between.

We just came for the chicks! Bong!
Singin'... We just came for the chicks (4x)

Finally I unearthed myself and found out I survived
Ain't no question im alive and so you criticize
GO this way and that way and I dunno its all so crazy
What's going on in the world today ain't got nothing to do with me anyway
That's where I'm at, as small as I can be
If I could be infinitesimal standing at the peak
Swaying this way and that way, wherever wind blows
Its too early for the chorus, no wait here it goes

(Chorus)

And I don't mean to come off as some some inverted psychopath with a trigger to set off, its already set off
I'm just here to say, whatever I wanna say
Accountants on the phone they say the check is on the way
A photograph I figured you, you had a sneak a peak and
Maybe I was here or I was there, or whatever... I saw ya
In a hurry rushin off. Where are all your manners
When all I wanna do is give it to you on a silver platter

(Chorus)

Oh my my drink your whiskey
I seen you two times today
?? all this onnocence
Guess I'd never do it again
And quickly I lift up my pen
and I scribble ?? When the moment begins
A phonograph I figure you had to sneak a peek
And maybe I was there
??
?? where your manners are
?? let me tell you all about it

ok, when they actually do start the song, barber does this fanning type of
thing that goes like this:
E D C#
E
B 17 17 17 17 17 15 14
G x x x x x x x
D 14 14 14 14 17 12 11
A
E

which goes into the simple G > A thing.
(G- on the 3rd fret. A- on the 5th)
Listen to a tape to hear how many beats you play the A before going down
to the G.

Then, after you slow it down at the end with the slow G, slowly strum
these series of bar chords:

E F Ab B D E
E 0 1 4 7
B 0 1 4 7 7 9
G 1 2 5 8 7 9
D 2 3 6 9 7 9 (strum this last E fast)
A 2 3 6 9 5 7
E 0 1 4 7

Then it goes into the (ooooooohhhh) part, where you just play the A > G
part again.
Which then goes into the bass solo, which marc plays over a Ebm > Bbm7.

Then after the bass solo they play over this progression:

Eb > F# > A > C# > Em > B > F
(play twice, then they jumps into these next 2 riffs, which are played
over a Bm7 > Em.)

“This song is called Basis for a Day, it’s a song you should listen to every day” - Barber, 10/1/98

Stunning and majestic, Basis for a Day is the likeliest candidate for consensus greatest song in the Disco Biscuits catalog. The catalog is replete with 30 and 40 minute versions, three part versions, and numerous versions that are considered among the best jams ever played. The song itself is rather simple: a modern standalone version usually consists of a drawn out intro jam, a composed middle (which features a triumphant two chord riff, a chorus of “whoa”s from the band, a bass slap section (sometimes jammed out, as in a three part version), a (relatively) complex instrumental section, a reprise of the triumphant “whoa” section, and an ending riff), an even more drawn out main jam, and a triumphant peak. After the peak, the band stops, and then plays a quick high-energy jam back into the same peak, after which the ending riff from the composed middle is repeated (this is sometimes known as the tag, or Gimme All Your Fucking Money (GAYFM) section, after a line Brownstein sometimes yells to the crowd).

Because 1995 and 1996 are not represented in the Biscuits archives, it is hard to know exactly how much Basis grew in those early years and how different the modern version is from the early version. Luckily, one Basis from before 1997 is still readily available in circulation: 8/7/96 at the band’s first show at the Wetlands Preserve, immortalized on the earliest edition of Encephalous Crime. This early version is vastly different from the modern version. The intro jam is less than two minutes long, and features a bizarre stream of consciousness narration from Barber. The iconic whoas are absent from the composition, as is the bass slap section, but otherwise the composed middle is fairly similar to modern versions. The main jam is under ten minutes and sees the narration from Barber continue. Rather than building to the distinctive peak, the main jam breaks down, at which point the band plays the ending riffs, and build up to a crescendo before dropping back into that riff.

Until May 2020, the earliest extant Basis on Archive was 1/30/97, but that changed with the release of 1/17/97 from the vaults. The Basis on this version has some notable differences from the EC Basis: the first whoas are sang, and the ending is different: rather than building straight to the ending riffs, the jam builds up to the distinctive Basis peak that we know today, after which there is a tag section which builds up to the ending riffs (the peak is not played a second time). At some point after 8/7/96, but no later than 1/17/97, this iconic peak riff was added. 1/30/97, the first three-part Basis and for years the earliest extant Archive Basis, saw further developments to the song structure, namely the addition of the distinctive bass slap section to the composed middle. This section developed organically out of an intro jam, led by Brownie, into the middle of Basis.

After 1/30/97, there are another eleven versions of Basis from 1997 available on Archive. 2/22/97 is the first version in which the band plays the peak a second time in the tag section, although this didn’t become standard right away (3/25 and 4/12 are not played this way, for example). 3/25/97 and 5/13/97 feature more of the bizarre stream of consciousness narration present on the EC version. 3/29/97 is a somewhat odd version in which the band almost inverts the song, playing the peak before dropping (somewhat clumsily) into an intro. After 5/31/97 there are no Bases on Archive until 11/17/97; despite this gap, the song doesn’t seem to have grown much, although the band is playing tighter. The band played a Basis ending on 12/27/97 and followed up the next two nights with full versions of Basis, illustrating how important the song had become to the catalog by then. 12/28/97 is the longer and stronger version, and features an interesting type two breakdown (shades of Aceetobee and perhaps Peter Gunn from Barber?) towards the end of the main jam that showcases Magner’s new electronic synth capabilities.

The first golden era for Basis began in 1998. Basis was played 34 times in 1998, and of this number 25 have survived into circulation on Archive. The first Basis of the year is short and unassuming, not at all portentous of the song’s future role as the band’s heaviest hitter of the year, but the second version is a massive two song pairing, an over 50 minute Run Like Hell > Basis for a Day combo that skyrocketed both of these songs into the stratosphere. Other important early 98 versions include 3/21/98 Law and Order Theme > Basis, the 4/2/98 medley (which features an impressive DJ segue out of the bass slaps to a Shem-Rah intro), 4/18/98 Vassillios > Basis (featuring, of all things, a didgeridoo, but more importantly the first Basis to feature a trance jam), and 5/2/98 Basis > Dribble > Run Like Hell > Basis (another important show for Run Like Hell, as well as Dribble). Basis turned another corner on 7/3/98, which featured a nearly 40 minute version of the song, by far the longest yet. This version is emblematic of all the developments in the song over the course of 1998: the intro jam is ten minutes long, thematic and interesting in a way the earlier versions were not. The main jam is over 23 minutes even if you don’t include the tag, a relentless breakneck 98 style trance jam that had become the norm for the song. It holds up to modern versions as one of the best Bases ever. Basis was particularly strong for the remainder of the year, with important versions including 8/15/98, 9/9/98, and 12/29/98 (the last of which was included on the reissue of Encephalous Crime).

“The song’s called Basis for a Day… and it changes over time as the band changes over time. And so we took a really hot version from a couple weeks ago, digitally mastered it, and put it on the end of the album, so the album’s a little more up-to-date than it used to be.” - Barber, 2/05/99

The meteoric rise of Basis continued into 1999. Two very solid versions, 1/21/99 and 1/26/99, preceded a monumental version, 1/29/99, which at the time was probably the best version ever played. The band followed this with a nearly 40 minute version on 2/5/99 that is a little bloated at times and overall not as strong as the 40 minute version from 7/3/98. After this version it was nothing but smooth sailing for Basis in winter 1999. The next version, 2/10/99 (also an important date for M.E.M.P.H.I.S.) featured the first jamming on the middle of Basis, or out of the bass slap section, a trend that continued sporadically throughout the year and beyond. 2/19/99, which opens with the powerful Pygmy > Basis ending combo, is the first dyslexic Basis and arguably the first dyslexic Biscuits song (there is a Harry Hood from 1996 that is notated as dyslexic). Other standouts from the rest of the tour include 2/25/99, 3/6/99, and 3/18/99. A short anecdote from 3/27/99 stands out as evidence that Basis had become the most important song in the catalog. The band had left the stage after the encore, but were determined to play the end of Basis one more time before tour ended. They got back on stage for a second encore, a less than ten minute Waves > Basis. Although it is perfunctory, it demonstrates just how important it was to the band that they tied up their loose ends.

Since Basis was a microcosm of the band’s state, it continued to grow in spring and fall 1999. The first Basis of the spring tour was played at the legendary Trocadero show on 4/9/99. The classical cover The Thieving Magpie was debuted out of the main jam, and the ending was once again played in a Waves > Basis combination, this one considerably more fleshed out and considered by some to be the greatest Biscuits jam of all time. Another contender for that same accolade can be found on 4/17/99 in the legendary Shimmy > Basis pairing, the second Basis of the tour. After a solid standalone version on 4/23/99, another legendary Basis was performed at the storied Wetlands Preserve on 5/1/99, with a Basis > Vassillios > Basis anchoring the first ever palindrome set. After three out of the first four Bases of tour being legendary versions, the song remained a consistent heavy hitter for the remainder of the tour, with a particularly solid standalone version performed on 5/27/99, and with an excellent split version sandwiching the second inverted Boop on 6/13/99. Another important development for the song occurred on 5/14/99. Jamming on the middle section had become more common in the winter, but was taken to a new level when Basis was jammed out of and split at the middle section, with a particularly intense and primally psychedelic jam from Bernstein back into the Basis bass slaps.

There weren’t many significant developments to Basis in fall 1999, although just about every version from this tour is worth hearing. The most worthwhile of these are 10/6/99 (a 40 minute version widely considered the greatest standalone) and 10/28/99 (in addition to one of the best endings ever, Basis is teased and faked out throughout the show and as part of the “Spagopera”). The final Basis of the year was ending only, used as the final destination for the 100+ minute Akira jam, one of the Biscuits’ crowning achievements.

With the departure of Marc Brownstein from the band at the beginning of 2000, Basis entered its first lull in years. The first show of the year, 3/11/00, featured a Basis with Sammy on bass and Mauricio on percussive synths (the format that all the original Munchkin Invasions and Crickets were played in). The same lineup played a Basis > Helicopters > Basis sandwich on 4/22/00. These versions have their merits but overall are particularly ineffective, especially in the composition. The song was played twice more before the core four properly reunited, in full on 6/27/00 with Jordan Crisman on bass, and ending only on 8/19/00 with Pauly Herron (of Electron et al.) on percussion. The 6/27 version is particularly worthwhile, with a triumphant and unconventional intro jam and a powerful ending.

On 10/13/00, the core four performed a full Basis for the first time since 10/28/99. The roughly 38 minute version featured drawn out intro and main jams and a perfunctory middle jam, and signalled the beginning of the second golden age of Basis. Although the 10/13 version has moments of staleness, particularly in the main jam, it is a very solid version overall, and just about every version from the rest of the year is worthwhile. In particular are 10/21/00, 10/27/00 and 11/11/00: 10/21/00 is split up and sandwiched between Jigsaw Earth, in a brilliant Jigsaw > Basis > Jigsaw > Basis > Jigsaw segment that is one of the best of the year, and standalone Bases open the second set of 10/27/00 and the first set of 11/11/00, and these are often regarded as the year’s strongest. A unique dyslexic Basis can be found on 11/3/00; the show opens with the tag section, and an otherwise full Basis is played in the second set, with a full Barfly replacing the tag.

The golden age of Basis continued into 2001, although there aren’t many important versions from the spring tour. Some major exceptions include 4/1/01 Basis > Waves (><) > Basis and the excellent 33 minute standalone on 4/6/01. Basis made an important comeback on 7/5/01, with a majestically interwoven pairing of Crickets and Basis anchoring the second set. In the fall tour Basis was a regular powerhouse once again. The second show of the tour, and final show at the Wetlands Preserve, 9/2/01, featured a powerful 35 minute standalone Basis in the third set. 9/15/01 Basis > Ape (><) > Basis is a fan favorite segment and considered by many to be among the best versions of both songs. And 11/1/01 features a spectacular Basis that cracks the 40 minute mark, the first to do so. But perhaps the strongest version of the year can be found on 9/12/01, in which the band delivered a powerful and emotionally resonant Basis the day after the national tragedy.

Spring 2002 suffered an even greater dearth of meaningful Bases than did spring 2001. The tour in general was extremely song-heavy and lighter on stretched out jams, so it isn’t altogether surprising that a powerhouse like Basis suffered. Those interested in the era should check out the 3/6/02 version (generally considered to precede the overly song-y stretch of spring 02) and maybe 4/29/02 (from a Meatcamp set that is overflowing with heavy hitters), but the rest of the tour can largely be written off. Basis began to get interesting again in the summer (worth checking out are 8/17/02 Judy’s > Basis and 8/24/02 Frog Legs > Basis) and by the fall it had once again attained heavy hitter status. The polarizing “almost palindrome” of 10/2/02 is bookended by an excellent Basis, and 10/26/02 features another strong version of the song, but the two titans of 02 are undoubtedly 10/18/02 (Rock Candy > King of the World > Aquatic Ape (><) > Basis is some of the best music of the year) and 11/9/02 (the entire thing is excellent, but the intro is transcendent). 11/9/02 was the last Basis of the year, making 2002 the only year in which Basis was not played over the New Year’s run.

Although in previous years Basis seemed to dip in quality during the spring tours, spring 2003 is actually a particularly strong era for Basis. The first Basis of the year was played on 4/6/03, a 46 minute standalone (the longest standalone at the time and for over a decade afterward) that is highly regarded as one of the best. The next version of the year, 4/17/03, is another highly regarded version, particularly for the intro and middle jams. The other versions from the tour (split versions on 4/25/03 and 5/4/03, and an ending only version on 5/26/03) are solid as well. In the summer, Basis was played on 7/2/03, and then sat on the shelf for a then-unprecedented 17 shows, until it was dusted off for a monster final-set-centerpiece at the mythical Trancemission festival on 8/16/03. It then sat on the shelf for a whopping 27 shows (still its longest gap ever) until it was played again on 12/31/03. This Basis was central to the New Year’s Eve gimmick: It closed out the first set, but was left unfinished as the band jammed with the New Deal into their setbreak set. At the end of the New Deal’s set, the Biscuits gradually came out for another New Deal/Biscuits jam that segued into the end of Basis, complete with New Year’s countdown.

In the twilight years of 1.0, Basis stayed in the rotation but seemed to have lost some of its luster. It was played six times total with Sammy in 2004-2005. Of these, the only one really worth hearing is the standalone version played 12/29/04 as the second part of the encore. Fans who left to beat the traffic as the band started up Eulogy were no doubt dismayed to learn that, not only had the band treated the remaining faithful to an excellent Basis, they had reprised the jam that would eventually become Gangster in the intro jam.

With Allen joining the band, Basis regained its status as a once-every-five-shows song (from 2003-2005 it was more a once-every-eight-or-nine-shows song). Allen’s first Basis was on New Year’s Eve 2005, and he tackled the song on sixteen occasions in 2006. As he grew more and more comfortable with his place in the band, so too did the Bases he played become gradually more confident. There aren’t many must-hear versions from 2006, but they can be found towards the end of the year: 9/23/06, 11/4/06, and especially 11/25/06 all have moments of greatness.

Like the song’s golden age in 1.0, the golden age for Basis in 2.0 coincides with the golden age of Biscuits 2.0, beginning sometime in 2007 and ending sometime in 2009. The first extant version of 2007, 5/20/07, was the first best Basis of the year, and strong versions from the summer and fall include 6/28/07, 8/17/07, 10/12/07 and 11/4/07. In early 2008 monster versions of Basis were incorporated into jam-heavy three and four song sets, such as 1/19/08’s I-Man > Nughuffer (><) > Basis or 3/1/08’s Triumph > Shelby (><) > Basis (both excellent versions). In the summer, strong versions of Basis were played at major festival appearances, including 6/7/08 at Starscape and 6/13/08 at Bonnaroo.

2009 was arguably the strongest year for Basis in 2.0, with 6/5/09 and 9/19/09 being some of the best versions of the song for any era. In 2009 the three-part Basis became ubiquitous. 1/24/09 saw Basis split into beginning/middle, end and tag, but the first proper three-part Basis since 1/30/97 was played on 2/27/09 (beginning) and 2/28/09 (middle and end). This is, in fact, the first four-part Basis (in practice, the most number of pieces Basis can be split into), since the tag is played separately as well. Another three-part Basis was played over the New Year’s run, and the trend continued into later years.

After 2009 there were considerably fewer meaningful versions of Basis, although the song remained a catalog staple and guaranteed crowd pleaser. 1/31/10 and 3/15/10 are solid pre-wristgate fare, although nothing groundbreaking, and 7/8/11 is a strong portion of a strong show. Basis was played almost exclusively as a three-part or four-part song in 2012 and 2013, and remained stagnant until an earth-shattering standalone performed at the Mann Center on 9/27/13 as part of City Bisco. Breaking the 47 minute mark, it is the longest standalone Basis played, breaking the record previously held by 4/6/03 by over a minute. In addition to its length, it is widely considered the strongest Basis of the setbreak era (and one of the strongest of any era).

Basis continued to recover ground as the band did, and was mostly solid in 2014 and 2015. In 2016, Basis entered what might be called a silver age, with mostly solid versions appearing over the next four years. Basis also became more common, played a whopping seven times each year in 2016 and 2017, the most since 2010. After a few strong performances in 2016, most notably 2/6/16 at the Fillmore Philadelphia, Basis was inverted for the first and only time on 7/16/16 at Camp Bisco in one of the most memorable sets of the setbreak era. 2017 is similarly solid, with strong versions on 2/4/17 at the Fillmore, and 12/31/17 at the Playstation Theater, in what was also the most recent three-part Basis.

After two strong years, Basis was not played for over six months and 18 shows (its second-longest show gap and longest since 2003). It made its reappearance as the encore of the final night of Camp Bisco, 7/14/18, and was played twice more that year. The latter, played 12/28/18, is a particularly unique and interesting version with a wide variety in synth choices. After another strong performance on 1/31/19, Basis disappeared for another 18 shows until reappearing in November, its longest calendar gap. The Basis delivered on 12/31/19 is excellent, one of the strongest versions of the past decade.

Basis has been a staple of the band’s catalog for decades, nearly since it was written. It has been played more times than any other song except for two: Morph and I-Man. Disappearances of more than ten shows are very infrequent.

I want to go...

Tango and Bossanova,
I take my nughuffer everywhere I go,
When I go around the city.

Tango and Bossanova,
Life is hard, you cannot sit inside your house
And wallow in self-pity.

Oh, no, it's broken!

Nughuffer,
Lying in three pieces on the floor.

Twenty-five nughuffers,
Sitting on my bathroom floor..

Here we go, here we go, here we go, Jon The Barber!

I can't tell you what I've seen.
Who am I to walk away.
But I don't know if I can stay.

We haven't said a word in years.
We haven't ever faced our fears.
You never asked me what was wrong.
And then you said it in a song.

And you say that the grass is greener over there,
So I go and then the grass is green.
And you say that the grass is greener over here,
So I go and then the grass is green.

I hope these aren't dying words.
And I'll keep flying with the birds.
Swimming in the magic reef.
Dancing like a falling leaf.

And still I don't know what to do.
The grass is green but I am blue.
And when I see that nothings changed.
The city boy is still deranged.

Quiet walk in the park.
And the sun sinks and reddens.
Shelby Rose in the dark.
A yellow bird on a tree stump.
You take a stroll by the lake.
And when you see Shelby coming,
You feel your heart palpitate.

And I suppose I can tell Shelby Rose how I feel.
And I suppose I can tell Shelby Rose what I do.

And in a few days you tell her,
that the future is bright.
You fill her in on the prospect,
And she fills with delight.
It's a good thing you tell her.
Because you know that she'll stay.
You celebrate with some champagne,
And you wake the next day.

Every day is a walk in the park, every afternoon to the days turn dark.
Every night is heaven sent.
Every night is heaven sent.
Every day that I spend with you, every afternoon that we go to the zoo.
Every place we ever went.
Every night is heaven sent.\\r","transcribed by Rich Steele

When my baby said she loved me,
Why did I just not care?
When she damn well got up and left me,
Why didn't I keep her here?
Well I never had the heart to leave her.
Something else just kept me there.

Then came Awol with the lovelies.
Me'n Awol go way back when.
Back before I knew my lady,
Me and Awol were the best of friends.
He said that when we get in the swing of things,
We'll be looking at some perfect 10s.

Well I used to love a lady,
But I don't know what went wrong!
Whoa no!

I used to love that lady
But I don't know what went wrong
Whoa, no!

And I never had the heart to leave her
But she left me on her own

Awol’s Blues is a pretty standard early Biscuits blues tune. It is fairly unremarkable except for the fact that it was played so often, a whopping sixty times in 1997-1998. The band so loved this tune that it found its way onto Uncivilized Area, the final song on the album.\r

After a few performances in 1999, the last of which being 9/24/99, Awol’s Blues returned to the shelf, a relic of the bygone pre-Trance-Fusion days. It was busted out on three occasions. The first was 7/28/02, representing a gap of 225 shows (just one more than the current gap). It was performed a few more times and then sat on the shelf for 111 shows until a one-time performance on 9/3/04. After that it sat on the shelf for the rest of the Sammy days and well into the Allen era, when it was busted out for one final performance on 12/29/12 after 491 shows. The Biscuits have not performed the song since.\r

Did you ever think about it,
That everyone gets lifted all the time?
And you want to fade away
Wishing we could be normal for awhile
So you want to feel good?
Well maybe you should just work it
And you want to breathe oxygen?
So why not go out and buy it
Did you ever think about it,
That maybe we were all crazy for the start?

How can I add it up?
That freedom is a gun
With giant bags of money
Wrapped in uniform?

Did you ever think about it,
That everyone gets lucky some of the time?

As you walk the razor blade, thinking we could fall to either side
So we came to crash the party
And spraypaint on your carpet
And You heard it was an accident
But maybe you don't believe it
Did you ever think about it,
That maybe we were all crazy from the start?

How can I add it up?
That freedom is a gun
With giant bags of money
Wrapped in uniform?

Spraypaint my name on the wall
Question me I have the time
Fits your profile
Anything you need to make a profit
Have the time
Fix your profile
Anything that you need to make up

(No Longer Sung:)

Take me slowly down the road
Pull me over I'll drive the car
Get your profile, anything you need to make a paycheck
Drive the car, get your profile
Anything that you need to make up
And you want to sail away
wishing you could be simply out of life (thinking we could be simply out of time)
