about

First single off our upcoming album "The Language of Birds."

It's about road construction.

lyrics

Bouncin' around with all the moon rabbits
and crushing up spices like creatures of habit
balanced on pestles in craters and mortars
enjoying the festival until we need our supporters

and we fill up our drinks with rusty old quarters
and wake up the next day to absolute torture
sniff up the spices into your nose
that's how the moon wanes waxes and glows

Bouncin' around with all the moon rabbits
and crushing up spices like creatures of habit
the man on the moon he
died long ago he drowned in a crater he was much too slow
as it filled up with bottles of liquor and stones
first cast by the fingers with spidery bones
covered in moon dust evading the torture
that's soon to find their boney hands in the morning

Bouncin' around with all the moon rabbits
and crushing up spices like creatures of habit
out of the bowls that they made out of jade and gold
that we would have been given if we hadn't nabbed them
well the astronauts trapped on the moon and the rabbits that trusted too soon all us creatures of habit
soon found their comforting ways to behave
building up highways as we decay

and we fill up our drinks with rusty old quarters
and wake up the next day to absolute torture
sniff up the spices into your nose
that's how the moon wanes waxes and glows

well the rabbits had us exiled
when we stole their jade and gold
cast their shadows across our faces
but soon their pelts were sold

well the medicine
we stole from them
kept us immobile, I'm told but
Quetzalcoatl always knew we were less noble and more bold

now we're seraphs dancing on satellites on the light side of the moon
now we're seraphs dancing on satellites on the light side of the moon
now we're seraphs dancing on satellites on the light side of the moon
now we're seraphs dancing on satellites on the light side of the moon
