The first time I saw The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, I knew it to be the greatest rock film of all time. For those of you who have not yet seen it, stop reading this and go out and rent it or buy it. But if you need more than just my word, at least check out clips of it here on youtube. If nothing else, you'll get a chance to see what inspired my video. I wish I had been there to see the acts like the Stones, The Who, Taj Mahal, and John Lennon with The Dirty Mac. But what would have been even more incredible than just being there would have been to perform there. But alas, I was not even born yet in 1968. So the best I could do was to create some puppets and a small scale version of the set in my garage. This is the first song of a three song set that I'll be performing on that little stage. They'll get posted here on youtube as I finish them. Be sure to watch until the very end so that you don't miss the animation after the credits.

Lyrics:
The sunshine's so monotone
I dream in stereo
The sunshine's so monotone
I dream in stereo
Take a good look around
No you can't see a sound
I hold my breath while I breathe
'Cuz I'm too lazy to bleed
Stand away from the door
It ain't workin' no more
We can climb on the stairs
But they ain't goin' nowhere
And no one cares
The sunshine's so monotone
I dream in stereo
The sunshine's so monotone
I dream in stereo
No I don't feel profound
My thoughts are stuck in the ground
I'll dig up all that you need
You know you are what you bleed
Stay awake to record
Wakin' up on the floor
You can send off your prayers
But they ain't goin' nowhere
And no one cares
The sunshine's so monotone
I dream in stereo
The sunshine's so monotone
I dream in stereo
Can't control what's in my mind
Table's spinnin' keepin' time
The sunshine's so monotone
I dream in...oh yeah
Take a good look around
No you can't see a sound
I hold my breath while I breathe
'Cuz I'm too lazy to bleed
Stand away from the door
(eye in the keyhole goin' blind)
It ain't workin' no more
(lose the hinge that hangs the mind)
We can climb on the stairs
(It's all a f***ing waste of time)
It ain't goin' nowhere
And no one cares
