about

Words and music by The Chef (inspired by the poetry of Charlie Mehrhoff and Michael Cunningham's novel Specimen Days), except for the part we pirated from Bauhaus. Sorry.

lyrics

Is it only in my head?
Is it only in my head?...

The moon is just a fingernail
every cloud's a Death's Head
see how the Zero bleeds from the edge

Take a walk outside
in the blazing midnight sun
all the Dead are in machines and
your deeds are all undone

It's the voice of the angels
in a Xerox machine
it's the Devil's fingerprints
in a swirl of gasoline

Is it only in my head?
See how the Zero bleeds from the edge
Is it only in my head?
See how the Zero
bleeds from the edge

All we ever wanted was everything
all we ever got was cold
get up, eat jelly
sandwich bars and barbed wire
squash every week into a day

O, to be the cream!
O, to be the cream!
O, to be the cream!
O, to be the cream!

Is it only in my head?
Is it only in my head?
Is it only in my head?
Is it only in my head?
