Thought will fuck you up you're right - I agree with that Thought will fuck you up you're right i could not agree more your thesis is something of beauty the present is pleased by this lax sense of duty measurement's empty, comparisons odious its no equation, it's something melodious so when I dance I will dance like a child dances when I love I will love like a fool romances when I wake from out my bed i will breathe in all the world quit this living in my head watch the universe unfurl To its entropy such a human wish claw to get control dictator of all this such a pointless goal see the point we missed Thought will fuck you up you're right - I agree with that Thought will fuck you up you're right I could not agree more emphatically, i feel ecstatic just seeing how long i've been on automatic but now that i'm shaking myself from these tangles i'm seeing this happening from all these new angles so when I dance I will dance like a child dances when I love I will love like a fool romances when I wake from out my bed i will breathe in all the world quit this living in my head watch the universe unfurl To its entropy such a human wish claw to get control dictator of all this such a pointless goal see the point we missed

I guess it's time to get a job, or better yet get a career can't be living in the now - the destination isn't here it is somewhere far away, only reached by pure force and when you finally arrive there's a further place of course and they never let you be, always something new to fix cannot do it how you want, gotta learn their secret tricks and of course you gotta pay - "5 easy steps to be a knob" but i haven't got the cash, I guess it's time to get a job I guess it's time that I grow up, or better yet, already grown learn to shoulder all the weight and accept that i'm alone trade my love in for routine, hang a carrot 'fore my steed tear up all these dirty forests, plant that monoculture seed lock the cage around the child, bury it down deep inside no more singing just for fun, only when in battle cry have a clever word debate about how much is in the cup and if you think that it's absurd well then it's time that you grow up But i'd rather just ignore all these voices in my head all this pressure on my shoulders from the shit that i've been fed it's not doing much for me and so I wonder who it's for I want to be inside my own and never hear you anymore I don't want what was before, why don't we make something new? I will bloom from out of me and you can bloom from out of you But you're gonna have to promise that you'll leave that shit behind I want your life to be good - please don't be a drag on mine! I guess it's time that I jump ship, but this time i'll leap for real I'll get good with who I am, i'll get down with how I feel I will learn to let it out even when i'm pretty sure they will label me a heretic that's rotten to the core but I gotta find my peace and I gotta draw my line even if only in sand to be washed away in time though i'll never be enough to the standards of the group strike their judgment from my mind it is time to fly the coop! It is time to fly the coop! It is time to fly the coop! Is it time to fly the coop? or is it time to get a job?

Hey,
I didn't make the cover art for this one. It was a gift drawn and sent to me by the artist Chris Eff and I liked it so much that I wanted to use it on this release. If Instagram is something you are into then please go and show him some love: @verysoberartist Thanks Chris!

When I was younger my friends had a thing for Captain Morgans Spiced Rum. I don't want to exagerate their enthusiasm, but I remember some sort of hype within the group for that particular booze. On at least a few occasions I remember someone coming back accross the border with a bottle or two, duty free. There might have even been requests for it. Maybe I am even down-playing just how popular it was. Honestly I don't remember exactly. Those days all seem to blend into one long weekend now in my mind. Even duty free I think it was like 30 bucks, which to me is and was a lot of money for a bottle of anything. But you like what you like I guess and sometimes it is nice to treat yourself to rum.
I moved countries almost 7 years ago and I just walked past a liquor shop here and saw a bottle of Captain Morgans Spiced Rum on sale for 13 bucks. I thought of my friends back then, I thought about the good times and I thought about the insane mark ups on liqour prices when you live on an island.

Anyway, here are some songs about not thinking and over-thinking.
Love
TEACOZY
