Strawberry Kiss 03:16
lyrics
buy track
In between seasons Awakening feelings The two of us were hungry Looking for blueberry bushes On silver mountain Warding off the fruit flies with our hearts a burstin' We were so thirsty Dehydration during hibernation But springtime is here Just a little water will bring the garden From wintertime to light I'll meet you on the solstice Ivy covering your eyes So surprised to find a friend beside you Veiled in finest vines And my roar will split the mountain Awestricken scenery divides Strawberries clinging from the fountain By the lips a kiss to keep me inside The ridges of your teeth Like switch blades carving initials in trees Bear kisses bear Taste buds will flair As the skin of your tongue wraps around the treat Of dreamy strawberries Crushed and cooled Hooking mouth to mouth On the cliffs of romance Overlooking strange worlds below Where animals can share We wandered through the forest Like cubs aroused by vibrant voices Such peculiar mossy carpets stretched beneath our feet Teeth of sudden passion tore incisions on my cheeks And the flavor lasts for weeks Pure strawberry! I want to eat you alive The strawberry kiss

Out Of Control 04:32
lyrics
buy track
You have the looks that kill a friend Leave them jealous in your jet pack As you fly to meet your man You have one in every city You have one in every bar Jump from space to space with lip gloss Hidden faces, stolen cars Who plays the role of the chauffeur With missing signals on his ride? Take the make up from the driver We're just animals down inside You're out of control... You're out of control my darling Jumping from thrill to thrill Stretch out young centerfold Cause your out of control Your the winner of the dating game But you cannot give enough Collecting pretty eyes like baseball cards And a nice young booty to strut But those playas in the suburbs Think they have the right to touch They hit you up on the internet With no skills to back it up You abandoned them all the same For a sexy rendezvous in the rain But your not to blame It's that hypnotist on your brain He said: "Sell me your soul and I'll take control Together we'll soar on roller skates by frozen lakes No one will see our skid marks alive Nobody will catch us alive!"

Mannequin Mad 03:44
lyrics
buy track
Mannequin mad Flawless paper machete skin Surrounded by her black hole eyes Seemingly empty til they cry Wet glue tears that dried on her halter top Modest length Collars point up like werewolf ears That hear the window shoppers whisper The moon was in full bloom one night They scanned the vacant cobblestone road A voyeur saw her dance under the spotlight A shoeshine boy stared at his daily dime Watched Madeline's reflection twirl across his coin She walked into the glass display They both blinked twice and she's still again The shoeshine boy gazes up and sighs "Mannequin Madeline Are you really here? You pirouette in closed clothes stores But when the clerk opens the door You disappear Where do you go, when you disappear?"

Nightingale's Revenge 04:06
lyrics
buy track
There's an eye in the clouds Watching rays of light disguised as animals I've been hanging with the lions Drinking root beer floats Beyond the boardwalks of Coney Island Waving at the geese as they fly by A melody besieged my ear A nightingale was climbing up my leg (with flowers) I shocked the tanners surfing on their towels When I stuck my tongue inside that little birds pointed mouth Conversation developed Seems we both had relatives in North Carolina How funny! What a wonderful trip we'd have Chauffeuring that Nightingale down I-95 Hope it's sunny! But the car broke down so quick I reached over for that kiss And I missed (in New Jersey) As the remnants on my lips were bloody Whistling a song for somebody who had to leave It rips apart your mouth, my friend But if I had a chance I would kiss that immortal bird again And I would savor her revenge I could not save her from revenge The nightingale's revenge!

Dodecahedron (A Wedding Song) 05:52
lyrics
buy track
Soft, silly triangle Could not fit inside one's chest The way you could fit a circle or a heart I roll the dodecahedron I watch the spinning dice Do I love you? Do I not? I've fallen for your snake eyes once again Meet me in that grassy valley Licorice Lake leads the way The buttercup lights up your chin Do you want the gold? Do you want him? I roll the dodecahedron I watch the spinning dice Do I love you? Do I not? I do, I do, I do love you Will you marry me in the clouds? Our relatives won't be invited Our friends are not allowed No one needs to know what we've done here I won't tell a soul where we've been, dear Will you marry me in the parking lot Keep me safe and warm Like a poem in your pocket

Woodland Virgins 06:46
lyrics
buy track
Artemis kissed us with lips that were vicious Hungry for virgins in the heart of the woodland She armed us with sickles Those rusty blades spun Cutting thin strands Paving a path for us Rain covered the fields on the first day of Autumn All was revealed as the wet grass had softened The children arose in a military line Pulling the ropes which the wild things climb I was there in the trees when you captured me An axe in your hand I landed in a bed of leaves And that were I'll be as you move to pursue me The night sky Has opened it's eyes To spy on it's child The lightning struck through the bark of The Great Tree Forsythia leaned over blood veins in the stream The pussy willow leaned to peak at the scene Of your tattered brown dress dangling from a thorn We scampered across the hollowed logs in our clogs Awakening bears Your hair poured out like the thistledown But your heart was heavy I felt your chest It felt like dirt It felt like Earth Surrounding me I was there in the trees when you captured me With strength in your legs to chase me to the clearing And that's where I'll be as Mt. Cynthus starts to divide And relinquish it's grip on her slaves The trees will hide us The cool wind will guide us And we'll wrestle like foxes Til the branches get excited The waxing and waning Slopes of your body Hung bare beneath the moonlight Kept warm inside a flannel blanket I'm a secret agent Venturing under the covers And I'm smothered in your legs And I can't see anything Except your eyes They glow in the dark And the grow when the magic starts to write

There Are Longways 04:10
lyrics
buy track
I do not know how this mess is going to end Nervous in our wonder years Ice skates with energy A quick maneuver gone awry I tried to stop behind the line But plowed past that arms reach distance Did I injure you? Your ok? Well, ok Let's escape this danger zone Leaving wonderland But its hot outside Humidity sticking to our t-shirts Hiding teardrops on your collar Such disappointment As you turned away What would you say, when they ask you why you look this way What would you say? Would you tell them, you couldn't handle me? With a heart so clumsy and a long list of lumps To add to my unlucky streak Would it hurt you, if I touched you? The blood in my body is pounding faster I tried to apologize Can we give this another try? Let me walk you home tonight Hugs of healing Stars sprawled across the ceiling Let's take the long way home tonight Hugs of healing Stars sprawled across the ceiling Let's take the long way home

You'll Miss The Snow 04:30
lyrics
buy track
The radio proclaims “There will be no school today!” So peel off those lazy covers Pull that curtain rod and sway Winters frozen to your window Collect your mittens and your boots Kick open the front door There's many new alcoves to explore Your friends are all outside Lifting shovels, making lanes There clearing out the driveway You meet them on the street and... Dance in the cascade Caught in a whirlwind Spinning in place With icicles tumbling down The back of your neck Under your sleeves Til the snowman fades and melts away You'll miss the snow You've built a mighty fortress Throwing snowballs at the spies Footprints gather round the snow angels You're plotting their demise And attack oncoming sleds Moving swiftly down the hill You did not see her coming She said her name was Jill You skied past hidden houses Wrote her number in the snow But a rain cloud was approaching Soon it will be time to go Just one more hour of laughter Til our winterlands grown numb Cause the sidewalks getting slushy Before it spoils our fun we'll... Dance in the cascade Caught in a whirlwind Spinning in place With icicles tumbling down The back of your neck Under your sleeves Til the snowman fades and melts away You'll miss the snow

Quiet Egypt 08:30
lyrics

In Quiet Egypt on the tarp Baby Cacti plays the harp Spectrocolorimetry Sparse, secluded, glowing beads Philosophers had such nights in mind As they drew lines from star to star Architects leaned on calculus dreams But the numbers were so far away All those lights up in the sky Couldn't count the creatures down below Nestled in burrows and sleeping bags The sea people making plans to overthrow dictating giants Tomb robbers stumble over forgotten prose The water kittens curled in ball upon their laps With reverberating purring to quell the Meshwesh Round belly dancers on the street Tickling tummies in the open air And though the night life was aging there The tiniest romance sparked beyond that hill It was so peaceful on that quiet night in Egypt You could hear the candle wax dripping from the light The pharaohs image etched upon those gilded beaches Still clatter from the market collided with his throne There was a tender spot beyond those shattered mountains Ancient lovers fossilized in lyrical stone Sand stained palmetto lizards spooning in the pyramids Dueling tongues like young iguanas drinking from the Nile

Get Out Of My Room 03:22
lyrics
buy track
Someone swiped the tooth beneath my pillow I searched the bed, they left no payment Opened the closet, looking for strangers Hey tooth fairy, give me mine money I earned it Things were missing inside my drawers Frisky fingers paged through my notes Grabbed ideas I left a sign on the doorknob "For whom it concerns" "Get out of my house" "Get out of my room" I got home from work and headed for the bunk bed My lights were on There was a naked woman playing my dulcimer Violence striked as I turned out the lights Grabbed my mallets and jammed on a D chord She said "Happy Birthday" She called on a locksmith Said "You'd better make room cause I'm here to stay" The very next day she changed my curtains Rearranged my ringtones Left a post it overhead and it read "Get Out Of My Room!" I kicked open the door Turned over the stereo Smashed the bunk bed to floor Ripped her song from my heart Get out of my head Get out of my house Get out of my room Cause it's over

about

This was meant to be a break through record for Change! After completing "When Spaceships Collide", the slate was cleared for Aaron to write a thematic masterpiece. Penned in one year, these ten songs are about desire, passion and those things that bond us with the other animals on this planet.

Anthony Salvini joined the band as the studio sessions began. These songs jolted the bands intense live shows. Sadly, issues occurred in the studio and master files were hijacked. For years, this critical work in the band's history went missing. That was until 2016 when the unfinished mixes were found. These mixes have been mastered by Kenneth Daniels and a lost record is discovered!
