Bad Astronaut - Stillwater, California

Bad Astronaut - Twelve Small Steps, One Giant Disappointment - 04 - Stillwater, California

Still waters
death defying
cesspools from stagnation
wading the quicksand channel
slow moving light focus
anywhere but here bogus
this perfect world captivates you

and it survives you (Hey Derrick)
soils you (Hey Jason)
silences you (Hey Bomer)
dogs in the still water wade
until they drown

on to the escalators
down on the elevators
vagrants and wayfarers
prime real estate to be homeless
quality in quantity
in seemingly endless sunny
sand filled hourglass of death

and it shined on you (Hey Derrick)
lied to you (Hey Jason)
gagged on you (Hey Bomer)
dogs on the still water drown
before their small town

and we're off this week to Johannesburg
via Wien, Austria
and on to Italy
sometimes it feels like we've seen everything
and all of it means nothing
the rooms are all the same
this is my life until I can't compete
much sooner than they might think
It's always the still water town
Hey Derrick
Hey Jason
Hey Richard
we'll find a new hell without you

I don't know why exactly, but this is one of my if not my favorite BA song. Reminds me of my time in Nice.
