All that Froth Where’s that friendly face? That service with a smile? The dark stark whitewalls they shout out her name. The coffee’s weak… but all that froth. All that froth All that froth All that froth And a waitress with blonde hair, stringy. A face like a man’s voice. I believe it would rate your hair. All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth I’m a counter clerk. It’s my job. All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth And mother’s eye liner runs thick, two kids spillin,’ runnin’ and cryin.’ The counter complies. The mother carpet pants, wanted two kids… All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth All that froth, etc.

Snowdrift (Live) Snowdrift, waist high… cinch it, cinch it! Yes, that is the way. Can you spare a little time? Love letters packaged neatly with a red velvet ribbon. Oh yes. I don’t know. Can you spare a little time? Can you spare a little time? I don’t know. Am I getting picked up? Can you spare a little time? Am I getting picked up?

Airport 07:54
Airport Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport. Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport. Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport. Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport, Your suitcase got lost in the airport. You wear the same clothes as Margaret Thatcher. And it’s hard to believe you’re her only son. Your suitcase got lost in the airport.

Boise, I Don’t Know My suit’s torn. My suit’s torn. I run my debts to the limit. My suit’s torn. Get out. My suit’s torn. Button up your collared shirt, tie your shoes. Tie your shoes. My suit’s torn. My suit’s torn. My suit’s… My suit’s torn.

They are dedicated to creating an atmosphere for narrative vocalists and spoken word artists, making their presence known with an odd sour note or two, weaving in and out, leaving the listener befuddled and sometimes inconsolable. File under "improvisational-experimental." ... more
