lyrics

In this bloody time and place,
in search of my soul, of sacrifice
I’m looking for solid cement in which to stand.
The places that I want to be
don’t ever hold any good for me,
and anyway, instead of holding that,
I’d rather hold your hand.

And if I ever get out of here,
I won’t have to wait another year.
I’d rather cut off one ear to save the whole man.

Time doesn’t stop for anyone –
you can lose yourself in Ironton
or just stay inside your safety in Ashland.
Counting the hours and the minutes –
looking for a world with you in it,
sometimes, it feels like I’m waiting for Peter Pan.

And if I ever get out of here,
I won’t have to waste another year
I’d rather cut off one ear to save the whole man.

And being me is sometimes embarrassing
unless I’m wrapped up in playing and singing.
Oh, please, just tell me why, oh, only if you can.
And God doesn’t grant permits
to jump in a bath and slit your wrists.
One just takes it upon oneself to carry out that plan.

And if I ever get out of here,
I won’t have to waste another year
I’d rather cut off one ear to save the whole man.

The Trans Fatty Asses Silver Spring, Maryland

The Trans Fatty Asses made a false start in 2010 when Todd Osborn (drums, guitar, voice, songs) attempted to put a live band together comprised of Bob Crain (drums, guitar, voice), Nick Johnson (Keys, electronics), and Aki Zenji (bass). Zenji had to leave the band, was replaced, but it all splintered after that due to bad timing. Osborn picked it up again as a personal recording project in 2016. ... more
