about

Dedicated to the memories of Josh Zinman, Mitch Murphy, and Sheldon Fertig.

lyrics

All the mistakes that I make
Every day, baby
Over and over again
Over and over again

All of my questions they
Answer themselves like
What did I do today?
Why will I die?

Did what was right
They said it was wrong
I postured because all I fear I become
And my worries are great
Though my troubles are few
But what are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?

Fear of shame is
Okay by me it's
Modern and customary
Modern and customary
Modern and customary
Modern and customary
Modern and customary
Honored and trusted

In 2012
10 stone cold gems
I saw two young men dead by their own hands
I got caught again in a moment of overindulgence
I do what I want
So when things get fucked up it's
Nobody else’s fault, nobody else’s
What right do I have to resent?
No one is helpless and yet
You can’t have everyone
The secret way of the world
Is to get along
Is to get along
Is to get along
Is to get along
Is to get along

But any song could convince me that I was wrong
Any song could convince me

Yo I've been shitting on my dad
He used to draw he needed cash
So born in raised in Whitestone, Queens
I got that EZ-Pass
Money money money money money
Like there’s hate mail from Jessie J and her label addressing Jake

It's synonymous
Public school teaching, lowest common-denominators
And we are the products
Going lengths to let you know we're not averse to product placement
To say we’re manifest destined for using hundred dollar bills to wipe the sweat up off our testes

When the only thing we want is freedom from want
99 problems but debit ain’t one
I'm at the Port Authority stop, the bus ain’t coming
I think I’m frozen at eighteen, I’m Tutankhamen
I wrote this song for Josh Zinman
I'm feeling history's burden
I know that street gun violence murdered Shel Fertig

On 10/23/76
Armed robbery
My grandpa shot
My grandma in the hospital
My dad studied art
Left school to run shop
Modern and customary

I guess it’s better to be in the material world
Better to be
