[05] FLYING IN FROM FAR AWAY (EGO PLUM)

Download for free at: http://www.ebolamusic.com

FLYING IN FROM FAR AWAY is the fifth song from EGO PLUM's currently untitled "Album In Progress;" his first music release since 2007's critically-acclaimed RAT KING CD with the EBOLA MUSIC ORCHESTRA. "Album In Progress" means the songs are being put online AS THEY ARE WRITTEN AND RECORDED (approximately one song every one or two weeks). The FREE MP3 downloads are available exclusively on ebolamusic.com with accompanying music videos on YouTube.

A departure from the Rat Kings' orchestrated and cinematic sound, these songs are written in an organic and spontaneous method and limited to simply drums, bass, guitar and vocals. Thematically, the songs are based on a Soviet-era children's book by Lazar Marcovich Lissitzky entitled, ABOUT TWO SQUARES. It is a story about how two squares, one red, one black, transform the world.

Check back regularly for the new songs on the website. The free downloads will end when the 12 songs are completed and the collection is sold as traditional CD release.

LYRICS:

cube dancers
and automatickers
retrospecters
and academicers

get your books out
hi-lite a paragraph
you'll want to read again
because it speaks to you

dont have to (lie if you have to)
just tell the truth (truth won't help you)
always look sharpen (sharpen all your knives)
water your plant (plant your a-bomb)
and be polite (light the matches)
don't get upset (set the fires)
wear a nice watch (watch the city burn)

cube dancers
and techno cannibals
by chancers
computer radicals

set your browsers
to revolution
and sit back
and watch a video

dont have to (lie if you have to)
just tell the truth (truth won't help you)
always look sharpen (sharpen all your knives)
water your plant (plant your a-bomb)
and be polite (light the matches)
don't get upset (set the fires)
red is ascending in from far away

black square hitherto
catastrophic deja vu

little girl on her own
updates to my telephone

contant ridicule
sitting in the wading pool

battle you could never win?
tell that to ho chi minh
