lyrics

October sun/November moon.
No love of labor, no change in mood.
Tough love and protest, no facing fear.
Not likely laughing without a lot of lubricant to grease those grimy gears.

So much sooner: be locked in love.
A little later is better than never but never is good enough.
Reaching out, not taking hold.
Freaking out for time untold,
And it's all I can do to stay awake.

Your race is run, son. You're done run down.
Whatever reason, whichever town.
Waiting patiently with pounding pulse.
Wasting gracefully, or giving up.
And I don't believe it won't be worth the wait.

The Fig Mints is some guy named Bobby Rogan.

Sprinkle a little self-loathing in there, and you get what you hear. ... more
