Gypsy Belle is selling
Semi precious stones
At the corner store
There are ghosts that work there
They haunt the entire floor

Donna Joe is down the hill
Playing fetch With
100,000 dogs at once
She used to be a ballerina
or an Accountant or something

Mary Sue turned
Her hobby
Into a million dollar
Dream house
Can you blame her?
No, I didn’t think so

When will my time come?
When will it be my time?

There’s no tellin
How much I owe in
Back taxes, fines and assessments
Or how much lower
My karma credit score can go
What my next life will be like
I hope it’s a good one but I
I’m not so sure

Sometimes you just have to
Get off the wheel
And let the spinnin stop

He’s a street-level beat poet
Who noone suspected could be a
Cop-doctor-lawyer’s son
Mama I loved you
But they locked me up too soon
And too long
I’m the son you always took
For granted

Don’t ever trust in make-believe, little children
A child’s heart is only lead astray
By moonbeams and daydreams
Snowstorms and glow worms

Where is your body buried, Martha?
A place fit for fools and madmen I’m sure
My ruined hands, Martha -
My lion’s lamb came down and laid among us

Your love lifts trees from seeds
And always beds the naked earth

Will you wander with me children
Into the Tomb World

As we grow from seeds,
Sow we now our bones to dirt

An underground immaculate
With rebels grown immune to psychoactive
Compounds of eyes in sky
And who knows what
And who’s watchin who blow by
Our caravan was attacked last night
We lost near to fifteen lives

Why do all thieves imagine themselves to be
Robin Hood?

Athletics and aesthetics
Self-surveillance and mutual symptoms
Who said what, or did this
Or meant some kinda thing to me

I’m not complainin but I just had
To get a few things off my chest…
I been talkin to radio stations
But they ain’t listenin to me

Another hallelujah evangelist
An Icelandic Islamic astrologer
A cartographer from Istanbul
Is about to charm the
Pants off her, a peace officer
A refugee from the Law
They are in Love and who can blame them?
Not I not I not I not me, my friend

Say careful there stranger, on that ladder
And that new fallen snow all around
Look mama, I made an angel in the concrete
The starlight is bright tonight

For the people who time forgot
And the crawlers and the draggers

I came here under false pretenses
But I won’t bore you with war stories
Or dire warnings of phony apocalypses
Life is just one big experiment
Try not to blow anything up

    I like this, it’s different. Interesting to hear your style evolving. And the lyrics are great, kind of remind me of Dylan.

    Got any more new songs? Or maybe a slightly better recording of this one? ;)

    Not right this second. Sorry about the shitty audio quality. I recorded it originally on a tape 4 track, which has better sound. But the RCA to line in transition via Cool Edit really took the bite off this recording, which irks me to no end… Trying to earn my way up to better equipment!

    Yeah. From the sounds of it, it’ll totally be worth it! Don’t know why it has to be difficult.

    Info->info, just lousy translations.

    Yeah, I think right now I’m “paying my dues” as they say. Hopefully this TIME TRAVEL CLUB stuff will also get my musical ability up to a new level as well from playing with a diverse group of people across all musical styles…

    Hey, do another Reiki Harmonica Healing! I watched it on the research site and I think it helped me with a problem I was having with night sweats.

    You didn’t ask me but I think posting something like that on your front page would be kind of a friendly way to greet people new to your site. If they don’t stay for the content at least you offered them something for free, a free healing. Like a water fountain in a hallway. Good Karma to offer guests a little something! If you do another one and it doesn’t heal anything what have you lost?

    I’m not sure if I’m reading your undertones correctly, but you know I posted that here, right?

    I’ll try doing another one in the next couple days!

    I figured it was posted somewhere but I didn’t know where. How do you get to it from the front page though? If that’s a dumb question that’s ok, I don’t mind asking dumb questions. I’m starting to get lost with all of the links now but I like web sites that get me lost.

    I’m not sure if I’m reading your undertones correctly

    I just think you should highlight this a little more to encourage newcomers to sit a while and get to know you. Big web sites are a little daunting for newcomers. This could be like a seat in a hallway after/before a journey. That’s how I reacted to it on the research site. I just got a chance to catch my breath and relax before the next round of links.

    Big web sites are a little daunting for newcomers.

    I totally agree, since they have a built-in culture, community and aesthetic all their own. That’s why I put this on my main page.

    If you click on this link:

    http://www.timboucher.com/

    It should pop right up when the page loads, since the video code is embedded right into the actual page itself. Is it not showing up for you there?

    My friend Garrett is building a couple of reiki video healing websites which will “blast” you with many people’s healing energy all at once… That’s what prompted me to make this video.

    Is it not showing up for you there?

    Nope, not anywhere to be found. @tmbchr refreshes the page and the little birdie does the same.

    BTW, do you have any idea why the Google Ads on your site are are always trying to sell me Sixers tickets and caskets?

  10. Posted January 29, 2009 at 10:02 am | Permalink

    Those aren’t Google ads. They are paid advertisements through another company. I don’t know what to tell you, but you should NOT be looking at http://www.timboucher.com/journal, you should be looking at http://www.timboucher.com/ for the video landing page.
