Down on the farm
I unpack my things
and quietly off-key
she sings
and the days are long and happy now
as squidhead plows the hay
over hills and up the ladders
SEE 5 STATES ON A CLEAR DAY
Out in the field
it all took shape
collard greens and watermelons
and signs pointing to Pompeii
and the deer defied the scarecrow
and the pigs are on a pole
Hester's feet are blistered and blue
AND GOD BLESS THIS FUZZY POLE
squidhead farmplow
Spring turns into Summer
day turns into night
horses in the fields
planes float through the sky
squidhead farmplow
about
Free single for all you Squidheads! This is the epic "Heroes and Villians" solo version from the Decompositions DVD released in 2007. This song dates back to 1995 and was written about my "Fuzzy Pole" art garden. Orange Hat recorded a rocking full band version for the Pufferfish CD but I always wanted to try a much more elaborate version in the style of the Beach Boys Smile recordings. By 2007, technology caught up with my ambitions and I was finally able to record digitally with unlimited tracks! This song was finally born after a verrrry lengthy 12-year gestation.
This surprise album from the New York alternative band is an archival collection of previously unreleased recordings. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 9, 2020
