I don't wanna talk right now
I already know and I don't wanna hear
What I'm doing wrong out loud
I know it's mostly my fault and I can't seem to care
about my so-called finances
My so-called career
My diminishing chances
of seeing a dentist this year
Knowing how my luck plays out
the impending disasters will be of the size
They'll screw the world up *just* enough
that I still should have saved something up to retire
But too much for any chance
To improve my circumstance
To wake up with blood-free hands
To meet a lady in a lake who'll give me just the very thing so I can
Fix it fix it
Someone forking fix it
Fix it fix it
Anybody fix it
Fix it fix it
Tell me how to fix this
forked up
fix it fix it whoa oh oh...
The trouble with the world is us
And the trouble with us is we're good at our job
The paragon of parasites
And knowing we suck isn't making us stop
This frog's gettin' boiling hot
Makin' no move to hop or not
'Cuz it just found the nicest pot
And if we hate our own complicit fiction
Isn't doing forking shirt to
Fix it fix it
Someone forking fix it
Fix it fix it
Anybody fix it
Fix it fix it
Tell me how to fix this
forked up
fix it fix it whoa oh oh...
And it was my birthday, today was my birthday
And all that I wanted was somebody to notice
It was my birthday, today was my birthday
And all that I wanted was nobody to notice
Fix it fix it
Someone forking fix it
Fix it fix it
Anybody fix it
Fix it fix it
Tell me how to fix this
forked up
fix it fix it whoa oh

Well that’s a look, my dude
I never heard such screams
We got a bottomless pit and a white-knuckle grip
You brought a trampoline
We play this game for keeps by rules you got to write
And you got enough second chances
and god mode and gambits -- shut up, you’ll be fine
Don’t confuse it with violence or silence or war
When we show your gilded ass the door
You’re gonna land on your feet, that’s for fuckin’ sure
‘Cuz my glass ceiling is your glass floor
And I just wanted you to have a consequence
A CONSEQUENCE
Just one single motherflippin’ consequence
A CONSEQUENCE
Your set is over, sir.
Prepare to yield your time
It’s not punishment or prosecution (we wish)
Just a goddamn crime
You did everything you said you hated and skated
And we all saw
And you hold for applause
‘Cuz you know you can’t possibly bomb
And I just wanted you to have a consequence
A CONSEQUENCE
Just one single frickin' frakkin’ consequence
A CONSEQUENCE...

I’m tired of dark and gloomy days
I’m hangin’ up my coat and makin’ lemonade
No more shiverin’, no slip-slidin’, no more cold
Wash it all away baby, out of reach
C’mon let’s go and crash a brand new beach
We’re gonna find somethin’ new, find somethin’ new
We got so good at what we do
We’re off the map now baby, off the clock
And I don’t think we’re gonna stop us babe
It’s gettin’ sunnier
Oh, sunnier
Only sunny days from now on
Oh, it’s gettin’ sunnier
Nothin’, nothin’ but blue skies, baby
All of the rainclouds are gone
Oh they're gone
There is no ceremony yet
For the steps my dance card seems to set
No candlelighters, no crowns ‘n gowns, no ancient songs
Baby we’re just doin’ what we’ve always done
Same ol’ same old under the sun
‘Til we found somethin’ new, found somethin’ new
We got so good at what we do
We’re off the map now baby, off the clock
And I don’t think they're gonna stop us now
It’s gettin sunnier...
It’s gettin’ sunnier, whoa, sunnier
Only sunny days from now on
Oh, it’s gettin’ sunnier
Whoa, it’s funny, baby,
All of the rainclouds are gone
They’re gone
They're gone
They’re gone...

Marian Call Alaska
Marian Call has things to say. She sounds a little like Ingrid Michaelson meets They Might Be Giants & Regina Spektor for bourbon & laughs, which sounds improbable, but give it a try. She hails from Alaska and tours North America and Europe, and she lives on Twitter. Her songs are quirky, sharp, surprising confections in every genre full of rich dark carmelized sugar, savor, & spice. ... more
Marian Call recommends:
Fascinating voice, incredible writing, deeply satisfying orchestration. Listen now. Listen yesterday.

This Cage Has No Bottom
by The Ascetic Junkies
I listen to this album over and over and over. Music nerds will rejoice at the thrilling changes of texture. These songs make me jump up and down.
go to album
These upstart teenagers from Alaska (now in Montana) have made a sweet, beautiful, moving record full of love and surprises. This album makes me one million happy. So do the kids who made it.
