Fiction isn't fixed,
So I decide to read the paper,
But journalism's dead,
So propaganda does me the favor, It's givin' me the news,
I'm just an idealistic sucker,
I'm givin' up on dreams,
I'm through with you worthless motherfuckers.
Goodbye Saint Paul street,
Goodbye all you desperate people,
Goodbye Saint Paul street,
Your justifications for violence and evil,
Where every kindness is taken indifferently,
The only thing respected is violence and greed.
I did it now and then,
I smoked crack out of a half inch socket,
I think I did him in,
I might have killed Jayson Bronzini,
But I can't be sure,
He had so many pills in his pocket,
We toasted Jameson,
Then threw his bones in the bay with the seaweed.
Goodbye Saint Paul street,
Goodbye all you fucked up people,
Goodbye Saint Paul street,
Racism cocaine violence and evil,
Where every kindness is taken indifferently,
The only thing respected is violence and greed.
I'll miss those perfect days,
Drunk in the Piedmont cemetery,
I can't afford to live,
Let alone be buried in Oakland,
They'll take my corpse away,
Throw it down in a ditch back in Texas,
Or in some unmarked grave,
Nobody puts a stone on trash it is pointless.
Goodbye Saint Paul street,
Goodbye all you ruthless people,
Goodbye Saint Paul street,
Your total acceptance of violence and evil,
Where every kindness is taken indifferently,
The only thing respected is violence and greed,
You're all so full of shit so c'est la vie.

This album runs the gamut from the instrumental guitar freak-out of "I Could Really See Things" to the melodic pop perfection of "Vision Television. With only six songs on the record, each song except for the 19-second "Intro" have room to breathe and expand. The sound of the lead guitarist Kryssi Battalene's guitar is pure sonic bliss, and the rest of the band ably holds down the rhythm. kevcor73
