Sold Out
lyrics
Jan came to pick us up
in his new convertible
and we drove straight out to the beach
the sun charged the batteries
on Lena's GPS
we laughed at its accent
and its stupid mistakes
but its intentions were good
and I guess that matters
looking out from eight miles up
the pilot checks her flight plan
sees a backwards
unexploded
inverted
star
and no one on the freeway in heaven
and no one in the bicycle lane in heaven
and everybody losing their minds
because no one's on the freeway in heaven
and no one's in the bicycle lane in heaven
and no one hears the sirens go off
because we're all in our houses asleep
this was protected land
but God built an arsenal
and now there's a hole in the beach
so we found another beach
three exits down
our parents named us after
not a goddamned thing
but their intentions were good
and I hope that matters
looking up we see a light
flash three times every second
in a line with other lights
which also flash
decide
dirty cops or allied ghosts
or satellites reflected
either way we're
unexploded
inverted
stars
and no one's on the freeway in heaven
and no one's in the bicycle lane in heaven
inflation's getting out of control
but the money's fake so no one cares
and no one's on the freeway in heaven
and no one's in the bicycle lane in heaven
and no one hears the sirens go off
and no one should
because everybody's free

Hey you there, do you love Jeffrey Lewis? Do you love Peter Stampfel? Are you intrigued by the notion of music that has spent so many years secretly soaking in laughter and joy that it is now downright psychedelic to look upon? Both Ways is the culmination of a decade's friendship and mutual inspiration, a behemoth of a double album, spectacular, unique. It is a signpost for drifting souls. Listen, laugh, wonder, delight, be made new. And play Orgone Accumulator fucking LOUD. Grain Sparrow

I have appreciated your music for over a decade. Even the misses are still base hits. Between collaring with Edan (looooooong time fav), Quelle, and Deca, I never know what to expect but I know it’ll always be a joy to listen to. Thank you for giving us as much music as you can. tavis206
