this is the song about St. Augustine that tom has played solo, and with the video on the kyte of andrew in the room during the "I want to smash them up part"

i really wish i could get the lyrics but i can't understand the 2nd part of the song. the chorus is this

i make my way back home to you
in north of san marco ave
white crosses on the church lawn
i want to smash them up

i think this song is great and i think Tom said its a pro choice song from one of my boots of it. excellent song.

i also love this one so far
the first verse, or what i can make out from it, is

i wake up in the morning and i drink from the fountain
i wake up in the morning with the same unanswered questions
i don't know what's gonna cure my unsettled stomach


yeah that's all i got. hahaha

It is a pro-choice song, because the white crosses at that church in St. Augustine are supposed to represent the "lives" killed by abortion. A "pro-government tyranny" (errr.... pro-life) group set up a similar thing here in Atlanta at Georgia Tech. It pissed me off then, so I can relate to the song.

And I'm pretty sure the lyric is "San Marco Avenue", not St. Bargo, but I could be wrong.

^you sir are correct, slowed it down on sony sound forge and it is definitely san marco

thanks man! i'm waiting for a clearer version of Lehigh Acres to come out to slow it down and get the lyrics and make another thread in this section about it.

anywyas, this song is a great sort of anti-church-state separation song

i tried my darndest, its hard yet with the version i have from common grounds once a more clear one comes out it should be easier. this too is an awesome song

i was a teenage anarchist
i was looking for a revolution
i had the style, i had the ambition
i read all the authors, i knew the rough slogans
it was a war on class wars
i was ready to set the world on fire
i was a teenage anarchist
i was looking for a revolution

do you remember?
when you were young and wanted to set the world on fire

i was a teenage anarchist
but the politics were to convenient
in the depths of there humanity?
i was all????
??

i was a teenage anarchist
but the politics were to convent

Alright! Thanks man. I can't wait to hear Tom put those piano skills to use on this record. Here's to hoping it doesn't all get fucked up while recording.

Although, I do remember AM! playing Ocean for over a year before New Wave dropped, and I didn't ever really dig on it too hard. Same with White People, that was out a long while before New Wave and I never thought it was that great.

With me totally digging on this new songs, hopefully they just get better recorded.

for sure i feel the same way, but i have faith that they know what there doing. maybe some piano like on sink fl sink, just on a song or two not on the whole thing. i like to believe the songs can only get better from here on out!

If someone could do the same for the song I think is called "Rapid Decompression" , I'd be pretty thankful.

I dunno how much of this you already have but what I think I hear is

I wake up in the morning and I drink from the fountain,
I wake up in the morning with the same unanswered questions,
I don't know what's gonna cure my unsettled stomach,
???Something collect ???something in coke cans on the sidewalk,
Their teeth are yellow, their hair is tangled,
Somethingsomethingsomethingsomethingsomethingsomething.

I'll make my way back home to you,
Head north on San Marco Avenue,
White crosses on the church lawn,
I wanna smash them all,
I wanna smash them all,

Ponytail swingin' back and forth behind something something
A college girl out for a jog,
Saint Augustine shed your light down on me,

Then the rest I can't understand really. And what I do I'm too lazy to type right now.

it's about the cemetary of the innocent! Tom loves abortion!

who doesn't love abortion?

AHHHHHH!!! THESE WHITE CROSSES!
