This Gee and Charlie as these lyrics from Old College Try by the Mountain Goats

From the housetops to the gutters

From the ocean to the shore

The warning signs have all been bright and garish

Far too great in number to ignore

From the cities to the swamplands

From the highways to the hills

Our love has never had a leg to stand on

From the aspirins to the cross-tops to the Elavils

But, I will walk down to the end with you

If you will come all the way down with me

[themountaingees]

Sometimes I still feel the bruise

//

Pinkish in color again

[effervescent-fool]

making contact gets harder as the silence grows longer. and why would you think of me. when you were not the one in love. when you were not the dreamer. when you were just the dream.

This Gee as these lyrics from The House That Dripped Blood by the Mountain Goats

Look past the kitchen cabinets

Go through the chest of drawers

Scrutinize the casements

Rip the varnish off the doors

Dig up the laughing photographs

They're here somewhere or other

Take what you can carry

But let me tell you brother

Still waters go stagnant

Bodies bloat

And the cellar door is an open throat

[themountaingees]

This Gee (and Ray) as these lyrics from Candlebox by the Mountain Goats

Three years on the local circuit

Played twice at the county fair

And the second time, Ben

Our friend who worked the business end

Said a guy from a label was there

There were two more like him at the next show

Staring us down like hawks

And there was love in the air

And all the money was there

And we were going on tour

With Candlebox

Candlebox

This Gee as these lyrics from Answering the Phone by the Mountain Goats

I think something's wrong with me

I think something's glued-down wrong, maybe permanently

I'm gonna tell you once, you oughta listen

you came here for comfort, you came to the wrong place

I got a strong stomach and a murmur in my heart

I got a tremor in my hand, muscle twitches in my face

and I think something's wrong with me

I think something's snapped-on wrong, maybe permanently

Yup

This Gee (and her ugly baby) as these lyrics from Pink and Blue by the Mountain Goats

Nice new clothes on you and old cardboard produce box for a cradle.

I mashed some bananas in a coffee cup and I fed you there at the kitchen table.

Crows outside complaining about the finer points of local politics.

Strange wind all full of new smells -- rust and fur and reception sticks.

And what will I do with you, pink and blue? True gold. nine days old.

This Gee as these lyrics from Jam Eater Blues by the Mountain Goats

Life is too short to leave the windows open all winter long

I'm gonna lock 'em up tight and eat jam out of the jar all night

'Cause life is too short to make toast or use spoons or napkins

Life is too short to spend the rest of it down here in Tampa

Life is too short to let it go to waste like this

But I never tasted jam before that tastes like this

And life is too short to refrain from eating jam out of the jar

[themountaingees]

This Gee as these lyrics from Rain Song by the Mountain Goats

The rain came down

Soaked the old hibachi

And I wish I could sing, like Allen Callaci

And then you would know

How sad it was, when the rain came down

Drop by drop

Gallon by gallon

Brother if I could sing,

If I could sing like Allen

You would know

And understand how sad it was when the rain came down

[themountaingees]

This Gee as these lyrics from Letter From a Motel by the Mountain Goats

The beams we used to build our house are breaking at last The building will not hold together very much longer My arms are young and they can do the work if called upon to do so

But the house itself has weakened and it's tilting on its axis In the picture that you sent I could see the windows getting soft Yeah I could see the heat had gotten straight out of hand And I knew that none of this was what you'd been meaning to send along

I did not mean to say what I’m saying now If we're gonna talk about what intentions were But the house itself is weak. Very weak.

Though you and our three daughters believe in what you want to believe From where I stand stability is everything In the room I’m standing in stability is everything And in this world, in this world, stability is everything

[themountaingees]

Could you do one for Psalm 40:2?

Head down toward Kansas

We will get there when we get there, don't you worry

Feel bad about the things we do along the way

But not really that bad

We inhaled the frozen air

Lord, send me a mechanic if I'm not beyond repair

You bet! 🖤

This Gee as these lyrics from Psalms 40:2 by the Mountain Goats

This Gee (and Frank) as these lyrics from Downtown Seoul by the Mountain Goats

I had your warm hand on my face.

I took your index finger in between my teeth, and I held it gently in place.

it was resting lightly on my tongue in there.

I saw you shaking in the cold Koreanair.

andthere but for the grace of the lord of song

I would be this very second and I'm coming right along.

you had your cardigan on.

I looked toward the sky and the white bird was gone.

I remember your eyelids.

I remember your body now.

Yes please do one for the entirety of Same as Cash

You got it! 👑

This Gee as these lyrics from Same as Cash by the Mountain Goats

Striking a bargain with the imp in your brain

Prepared to take another knock for the short game

But you can ask any veteran running back

Eventually, your joints complain

You were headed home at 80 miles an hour

With your fingers sweatin' under your gloves

Everyone deserves a little light in their hair

Everybody needs to love and be loved

That's what all the people say anyway

I can save my thoughts for another day

Maybe a small amount of pressure in the right place

Anything to help with the pain

In your car with your head in your hands

At the far end of the Walmart parking lot

Trying not to buckle under the strain

[themountaingees]
