about
The songs on this record owe a heavy debt to the sonic trail blazed by bands like The Cars and The Rentals, with a power pop core augmented by liberal amounts of analog synthesizer sounds. Think of it as New Wave Power Pop, if you must. This record is not intended to change your life, but hopefully it will make the 14 minutes you spend listening to it slightly better than they would have been otherwise.

With Authority - Lyrics
You say you're listening
You say you're listening
But you never hear a word I say
You tell me to be free
You say you trust me
But it's actions that always betray
With authority
You said you were the best of the best
You're really just like the rest of them
Your philosophy
Has made you what you used to detest
Already written the requiem
Tell me to study hard
I have to work so you can
Eat it up at the buffet
But where's the finish line
I thought I saw it
But it always seems to run away
With authority
You said you were the best of the best
You're really just like the rest of them
Your philosophy
Has made you what you used to detest
Already written the requiem
I finally figured out
It doesn't really matter
What I do or think or say
You'll do just what you want
Buy up the store and then you
Leave the bill for me to pay
With authority
You said you were the best of the best
You're really just like the rest of them
Your philosophy
Has made you what you used to detest
Already written the requiem
With authority
You said you were the best of the best
You're really just like the rest of them
Your philosophy
Has made you what you used to detest
Already written the requiem - Track Name: Out of Nowhere

Out of Nowhere - Lyrics
Eyes are heavy you're getting sleepy
The world is getting dark again
Next thing you know the alarm is beeping
A time no one can comprehend
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby how did it get there
Can't believe, do my eyes deceive
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby how did it get there
So naive, is it make believe
Maybe if we stop looking at them
Our problems will just go away
Better yet we can just go drown them
In Belvedere and Tanqueray
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby how did it get there
Can't believe, do my eyes deceive
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby how did it get there
So naive, is it make believe
Been trying to dodge it
Put off for such a long time
Faced with the logic
Of inevitable decline
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby how did it get there
Can't believe, do my eyes deceive
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby how did it get there
So naive, is it make believe
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby we better prepare
Can't believe, do my eyes deceive
Then it came out of nowhere
Yeah baby how did it get there
So naive, is it make believe - Track Name: Don't Really Matter

Don't Really Matter - Lyrics
Had a dream last night
That I flew across the galaxy
And I felt alright
Because you were flying next to me
Had a dream last night
Crashed a million miles away from here
But I felt alright
Cause I sensed you in the atmosphere
Yeah the whole thing's crazy but it
Don't really matter cause I know you're with me
Don't really matter cause I know you care
And when I think I might not make it
Don't really matter because you'll be there
Had a dream last night
Saw you dancing with some other dude
But I felt alright
Cause that's something you would never do
Yeah the whole thing's crazy but it
Don't really matter cause I know you're with me
Don't really matter cause I know you care
And when I think I might not make it
Don't really matter because you'll be there
Don't really matter cause I know you're with me
Don't really matter cause I know you care
And when I think I might not make it
Don't really matter because you'll be there
Don't really matter because you'll be there
Don't really matter because you'll be there - Track Name: Stay Free

Stay Free - Lyrics
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But I don't know what to think about you
Maybe I do maybe I don't
Maybe I'll go and just be without you
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But we both know that there's just no guarantee
We'll ever see just why we disagree
Don't even worry about it
Baby it's just not your style
Thought that I needed your touch
Thought that I needed your smile
But there's something about you that I just can't see
I'm blind like I ate too much mercury
Baby I've got to stay strong
Baby I've got to stay free
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But I don't know what to think about you
Maybe I do maybe I don't
Maybe I'll go and just be without you
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But we both know that there's just no guarantee
We'll ever see just why we disagree
Tell me I shouldn't have done it
Tell me it's just not OK
Why should I think of tomorrow
Can't even make it today
You're just like my insurance company
You're too concerned with liability
Baby I've got to stay strong
Baby I've got to stay free
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But I don't know what to think about you
Maybe I do maybe I don't
Maybe I'll go and just be without you
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But we both know that there's just no guarantee
We'll ever see just why we disagree
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But I don't know what to think about you
Maybe I do maybe I don't
Maybe I'll go and just be without you
Maybe I will maybe I won't
But we both know that there's just no guarantee
We'll ever see just why we disagree and
You're like a plot that drips with irony
Like Billy Ocean getting lost at sea
Baby I've got to stay strong
Baby I've got to stay free
Baby I've got to stay strong
Baby I've got to stay free - Track Name: Michelle

Michelle - Lyrics
I know she's a married two time mama
But I'm in love with Michelle Obama
I guess I knew it when I saw her interview on the Daily Show
Pretty and witty and a Harvard legal degree
Hope we can share an evening she can organize my community
We'll get their grandma to watch Melia and Sasha
I know she's a married two time mama
But I'm in love with Michelle Obama
And my knees get weak when I see those arms
You know it's me and my Michelle and now I know
South side Chicago is windy in the winter but now she's in DC
But it'd be better if she was here hanging with me
We'll get their grandma to watch Melia and Sasha
I know she's a married two time mama
But I'm in love with Michelle Obama
And my knees get weak when I see those arms
You know it's me and my Michelle and now I know
That she's married and a two time mama
But I'm in love with Michelle Obama
And my knees get weak when I see those arms
You know it's me and my Michelle
And I know it isn't realistic
But I guess it's just my luck, darling
Maybe if I was the president, now
She'd be the First Lady I'd like to
I know she's a married two time mama
But I'm in love with Michelle Obama
And my knees get weak when I see those arms
You know it's me and my Michelle and now I know
That she's married and a two time mama
But I'm in love with Michelle Obama
And my knees get weak when I see those arms
You know it's me and my Michelle
