Glenn Case
A Sense of the Absurd

The river's dry
I think you said goodbye
Technically I heard your words but then a fog appeared

Now all I see
Is unreality
Things are not the way they were
And so it all got weird

CHORUS
There's a bathroom on the right
So 'scuse me while I kiss this guy
I'm wrapped up like a douche
Cause there's a sense of the absurd tonight

The end of you and me
Is breaking gravity
Up is down and down is up almost like flight controls

And out that door
Are flying pigs that soar
Honestly I don't know what to believe any more

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Please believe me
The ground has crumbled beneath me
I couldn't entertain briefly
That you would go
Hits like a cannon
I had no understanding
That this is what you were planning
I just didn't know

The seconds hand
Will spill away like sand
You can live in the real world while I'm in La La Land.

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

Big orange head had a light on
Don't carry me too far away
Hold me closer, Tony Danza

Wow, I like the thick wall of rock sound. Got a little Weezer vibe in there methinks. I'm enjoying the melodies, and the chorus harmonies. We need to work on your distorted electric guitar tone though. 😛 Back to the positives, good la la's, they could have started way earlier in the song even.

I like instrumentation and effects to emphasize absurd. Good chorus and harmonies as usual. Nice stop. Getting slightly jaded of your stock drums... but not enough to complain too much. Very familiar song without being able to put my finger on it - Semisonic, maybe, mixed with Soundgarden?

Forgive me for not knowing the terminology I should probably use, but the music made the hair on my arms stand up...in a bad way. I’m not a fan of distorted instruments or whatever effects you were using. Lyrically I thought you did fine, and it’s fun to see how some of you all are using the same examples here and there at times. But I can’t really say I’m ever going to want to listen to this again.
