Me vs. The State of New Jersey

from Put it in the Pizza! by The Michael Character

lyrics

A split second flash as the lightning it crashes down on the house
But there’s two hours left ‘till all the clocks are reset and the fuses all rest side by side like grey soldiers awaiting new orders, no will of their own, just ornately dressed vessels where once there were souls
Oh how am I any different?
Oh there was a time
Once one winter when I
Made an igloo outside
That I was really proud of
Now books pass like sicknesses
Beneath eyes so listless
Convinced they’re still sifting for
A prize that they do not deserve
Why oh why oh why oh why
Do I
Insist on maintaining the things that brush ambitions aside?
56 in a 35, 200 dollars plucked fresh from the vine
Consider this my contribution to another place and another time

The Michael Character Boston, Massachusetts

It's political music, whatever. Based in Boston, MA. Absolutely willing to drive very far to play for you and five of your vaguely alternative friends in your combination kitchen/laundry room. Hit me up. I'm fully serious.
