[indistinct radio banter]
"Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace like a clock during a thunderstorm. There are no secrets in life; just hidden truths that lie beneath the surface."

Fun Time Feather

"Hi there! I'm Fun Time Feather. I'll be doing the face paint at your party. Hi-five! Your friend said they were gonna get... a better face painter for their birthday party? I think we need to show your friend what I can do..."
Gather 'round, and hear my story
About this girl that I adore
See, her name is Heather & she's the best
She knows how to put me to rest
With the tingles & magical sounds
With the binaural microphone that goes around
My head like a psychedelic drug
Givin' my brain one giant hug
Her expertise is ASMR
And she's the best at what she does, by far
A myriad of styles and videos
In the words of Billy Corgan: she knows
Got the roleplays, sound snacks, messing with marbles
With a laugh I dare say is adorable
And whenever I need to get my grip together
I know I can depend on the fun time feather
She's the candy queen with the killer scheme
To remove the king to reign supreme
She's the one you go to t'get your head checked
And you'd go again in a heartbet, I bet
She can paint your faice or be Bob Ross
She can be your doctor or be your boss
She can help you design your basement
Any tile you want, she can place it
She can tell you stories to help you sleep
Or she can eat some candy treats
She can be whatever character you desire
(She can even be a queen vampire!)
And every week, it's a new adventure
Guaranteed to be a friendly pleasure
So, when you feel a bit under the weather,
You know you can say "HEY!" to the fun time feather
If you haven't guessed by now, I'm a fan of her stuff
I can depend on her when the going gets tough
And she'll never know my name, and it's a shame
But I know that she cares, so how can I complain?
She gives so much to me with little concern,
So here's a little something in return
And I don't care if this song is dumb
I even used her voice at the beginning of this album
So who's the one who can make you feel better?
That's right, motherfucker; it's the fun time feather!

I Need You (In My Life)
05:41
|
|
||
The other day, I drove past the place we met
I remember it all like it was yesterday
A quiet girl with so much to give
And I wanted to take it all for myself
I wonder if you've ever gone back there
To sing on some new tunes you wrote
While you were feeling down
And I wonder how many songs you wrote 'bout me
I've gotta know
Did you think of me as you were falling asleep?
Have you ever thought that I was one to keep?
I curse myself for never speaking up
And telling you how I really feel
I need you in my life, as in
I've gotta hold you tight
And every second that you're away
I die a bit more inside
A voice as warm as cinnamon
With a smile so sunny bright
And I get so cold because I know
I'll never feel that warmness from you again
The other day, I drove past your high school
I've never been inside, myself
But as I scan along the bricks
I can only imagine you walking 'round, hand in mine
I wonder what you're doing with your life
Because it's probably better than mine
Oh, what I'd give to smooch your lips
And stand tall & proud, watching you walk down the aisle
Into my arms
Did you think of me when all your cards were dealt?
Have you thought of me when you went to touch yourself?
I curse my introverted ways;
I have to tell you how I really feel
I need you in my life, as in
I've gotta hold you tight
And every second that you're away
I die a bit more inside
A voice as warm as cinnamon
With a smile so sunny bright
And I get so cold because I know
I'll never feel that warmness from you again
[indistinct voices]
I need you in my life, as in
I've gotta hold you tight
And every second that you're away
I die a bit more inside
A voice as warm as cinnamon
With a smile so sunny bright
And I get so cold because I know
I'll never feel that warmness from you again
I need you in my life, as in
I've gotta hold you tight
Your face is burned inside my brain
And it makes me wanna cry
Sing to me in French, my dear
Tell me everything will be alright
Don't keep me cold, I need to know
If you love me like I love you tonight

The Road To Nowhere
03:26
|
|
||
"The road to nowhere is a winding road. Ever entwining into the soil and cross-sections of this land America. Come rain, come snow, come smoldering Summer heat, the road to nowhere delivers drivers to the next season year after year. May sunlight glare at eager drivers, bending 'round every curve and contour. Potholes and bumps, dirt and gravel. Ice and water, mixing insecurity in to every travel. Young drivers driving old. Old drivers driving dead. Some drivers driving to deliver life, while some drivers drive to instill dread. The road to nowhere doesn't care; it grows and grows and twists and twists.It'll cater to your carbon footprint, or throw you to the side. Whether the shoulder is your destiny, or your stop is the end, the road will have you know; your busy car is always its welcome friend."

Special Relativity
04:38
|
|
||
"The most bizarre aspect in traveling near the speed of light is that time slows down. All clocks, mechanical and biological, tick more slowly near the speed of light, but stationary clocks tick at their usual rate. If we travel close to light speed, we age more slowly than those we left behind. Paulo's watch and his internal sense of time show that he's been gone from his friends for only a few minutes, but from their point of view, he has been away for many decades. His friends have grown up, moved on, and died. And his younger brother has been patiently waiting for him all this time. The two brothers experience the paradox of time dilation. They've encountered Einstein's special relativity."
