crashing into the moon

another lunar probe

lost and crashing

into the moon

and here we are again

lost and crashing

in a saloon

all afternoon

while the world is burning

here's to the world

while the world is turning

[[Brackets]] indicate notes on the text, not part of the text.

These are not my diary entries. The persona/narrator is always fictional, often unreliable. I am always fictional and unreliable.

And the persona in one song is not the persona in the next song. They're all filtered through me, unavoidably, but the personas are various men and women and other beings. Like I said, these are not my diary entries.

Sound comes before sense. If I wanted to write a carefully reasoned essay, I wouldn't write a song.

And sometimes I'm messing about. Having fun. I enjoy the silliness of where our brains take us.
