Ma head is a mess
Turned inside out
We’ve been to the edge
Now we’re all falling down
And daylight is deadly
Singing those Monday blues
Friday I’m back from the dead
And back at it again
Undo/ redo
I’ve been scribbling these stick figures
Wi dark cloud eyes that get burst when they drink liquor
Born in a storm, devil callin’
Late night warnin’ morphin’ inti early morn ing
Heid spins like records when the needle skips
Eedjits, a dream drift cerebral glitch
R repeat, st t stuttering and time lapse
Lost for a while in ma mind map
No si-gnal, bars or battery
Scotch reeling, watchin’ the cabaret
The acid rain, forest floor canopy
Fireworks light up ma eyes and I annotate
Carryoot stashed in a hedge for later
No chance I’m remembering where
Bright lights, turnt up, super senses
Singing night night songs over detuned electrics
I take a breath til ma chest is in pain
Then exhale on the crest of a wave
Off the top a ma head in a mess pressing play
Either step to the plate or get ate
On the train I’m half cut
Less up-town A more Scotrail bam bus
Then off to chase that next dunt
Launched off inty outer space from the neck up
Head in a buzz, suspended in fuzz,
Sessioning stuff, cloud stepping on fluff
Crazed look check oot the roof that I’m raising
Everybody looking like crude animations
This brain food is amazin’
Look it’s the undo redo generation
Beautiful vagrants caught in a loop with
One foot in the matrix
Oh come all ye Faithless
To an underworld in the basements
We’re here with the Shamans
The pagans and the angels with dirty faces
Heal/ bruise heal/ bruise heal/ bru ise heal/ bruise
I just wanty vanish up into the light cause I know the light still feels good
I’ve been drowning in mumblers
Like I muddled up downers and uppers
Now I’m coming up out of ma slumber
I’m the sound I’m the sound of summer
This church might heal ma hurts but it’s also where I feel ma worst
Two days superhero five days see through caught in the loop like undo redo
Clocking in over an hour, a real "Who's Who" of voices over the Astronaut's audio productions in many styles. Supported this for the Ast-Ast and some of my favorite rappers: Texture, Solareye, Laughing Gear (Eaters!), Harlequinade (Soleni), Replicator, and Tickle. Love what is going on in Scotland's hip hop tribe. Oddio Overplay
Keening, yearning, captivating and lovely collection of songs, the sense of close performance all the more remarkable when you learn it was made during Covid lockdown in 2020. The ballads and poems set to music on this album might be hundreds of years old, and while they do have an air of immortal, ancient tradition about them, they sound utterly current. Badzie
