lyrics

Routine routine, routine routine
Routine routine, routine routine

When you say it often enough, it'll start to sound exotic
Like fountains found in foreign lands with French as the father tongue
Ochre spots and chevrons stabbed rough on spears of green
The mist of Eden as a lifted skirt only conceals more routine

Routine routine, routine routine
Routine routine, routine routine

To find yourself in the routines of others is to enter another world
Through doorways of cabin peat, thick pamphlets of Braille pen
Sense the chaos of sapphire riches and the liberation it would bring
To lowly specks of cosmic dust who cannot comprehend these things

Is the mystery, is the mystery, is the mystery a dream?
Routine routine, routine routine
Routine routine, routine routine
Routine routine, routine routine

L'Autre Cap (KLP179)
by Maher Shalal Hash Baz

What's Tonight To Eternity
by Cindy Lee

An ash-grey projection of Mary Weiss sings damaged, death throe pop for end times in the vertignous reverb of a canopy underpass. Brilliant even by Cindy Lee standards. Santa Sprees

SA
by Jonathan Richman

One of the greatest albums of the 2010s. Long may he write and record music as vital and vivid as this. Santa Sprees
