i accept 2001, jan smith brought on board with some shoes to fill cold cocked but hard to kill taken aside and told that I’m soft but I like to fight so I shake it off I keep sluggin’ but you don’t salute if you weren’t so stupid I’d be twice as cute wavin’ me in but I won’t take my bow going on guts and they’re spillin’ out If I could do it I would have done it by now If I could do it I would have done it by now wake up blinkin’ in a bright white light the nurses all say I’ll be alright but here where it’s so sanitized I finally see that I’m no prize cool and blue and red and white hats and gloves and lips and eyes they keep me here where I do no harm a tight white jacket is my right arm if I could do it I would have done it by now if I could do it I would have done it by now baby dolls and training wheels popcorn peanuts and orange peels bright colors and candy corn padded walls and endless thorns if I could do it I would have done it by now if I could do it I would have done it by now I accept I accept

about

These 2 songs were recorded and mixed by Tony Riparetti, Sound Logic Studio, Santa Barbara, CA. in 2004

They were included (and were my favorite tracks) in the now out-of-print album, 14 Stories. Album artwork, handwritten lyrics, liner notes, and all the visual badassness was created by my little brother, Theo Bowen.

There's nothing on the dashboard for protection; there's no candle in my window for regret, and the beauty in this moment overtakes me. I'm headed out it's bowling night again." ... more
