"Damn it," said The Duchess chomping down on her cigar She blew our purple smoke Climbing 'top the buttress Turning down to see the vicar "Oh so pastoral" An Arab in the mountain Foundling in the fountain A man in the window Underwater dragon Solar exploration A squid in the willow Cast aside the reason to maintain a neural Sweden down in Mexico Sing memento mori and we'll dance like frozen sockeye down in Mexico Cast aside the reason to maintain a frozen season down in Mexico

When the ice has melted down and the sky is full of flame We'll dance this mess around and weep some other day When the world is black with ash and all hope has burned away A cheer will come at last and we'll sing, “Oh holy day.” Dance under the fire Flames all around Dance under the fire Burn this mother down The air is gasoline and my body is the match I'll strike against your softest spot and see what flames we hatch Dance under the fire Burn this fucker down Dance under the fire Burn this party down Dance under the fire Burn this mother down Dance under the fire Burn this party down Dance under the fire Flames all around Dance under the fire Burn this fucker down

Temptation impasse and we'll all follow Pit polish hand parade Spit polish palm the tropic A winsome winding and the buffalo Full sail into the hail down An eager mind will wander And full of wonder you could telephone Whip crack the hand parade An eager mind will wander Spit polish princess wanders to and fro We're on the whisper side The Hell Storm burning down An eager mind will wander

about

Blood Double is the third monthly release in the Misadventures 2017 series.

These tracks were written and recorded in New York City between November 2012 and May 2013, with the exception of Infusion, which branched off during the editing process sometime in 2016. Likewise, the cover art is something I've had awaiting this project for some time.

The lyrics were conceived stream-of-consciousness beginning with Neural Sweden and then refined over a few days. They -- and the collection itself -- represent the murky world of self dialog, hazy reflection, and dream-state logic. It's often curious how such seemingly directionless formations can be twisted to correlate to later events. It is meant to be overwhelming, overpowering ... not particularly subtle.
