i love it so much when you hear a song for the first time, and the lyrics and music and everything just exactly say exactly how you feel at that exact moment that you're listening to it, a good good song, for the first time. -- the message board times 86-2

sea anemone
by jets to brazil

the curtain's a sea anemone in the way it sways to the slow breeze
i lie, spread out on the floor, looking at these things, and most of them are yours
and it's so nice, sitting very still
without those old shoes i could never fill

starfish with its arms out in a daze, staring at the stars through an ocean haze
was i one you wished upon?
burned out like a lightbulb when you turned me on

and it's so nice, sleeping here all alone,
with my ashtray and white courtesy telephone.

now i'm making out the shapes, like the shower rod - can it take my weight?
i will tell you i am fine.
i got some news, friend. feels like i'm dying.

turtle on its back in the desert sea,
and you look like a cool drink, just slightly out of reach.
draw myself into the shell, waiting on a sign from god, or a nod from hell.

and it's so nice, sitting very still,
without those old shoes i could never fill.

now we're turning on the lights - it's the first day of my second life.
take my name off of the lease;
you can even keep the name, it never suited me.
