i could choose a quick and easy way out
or i could choose to be
or i could choose to see beyond the white paint chip brick walls that enclose me in the moist cool cellar and bar me from experiencing the life affirming heat of summertime
or i could choose to destroy those wall, devalue the national currency, and detach myself and live forever lying naked in an open mountain field

I don't want to sit on the side lines
I don't want to waste all my time
I don't want to get shot in the head by some punk with no street cred
I don't want to think about the end
I don't want to wait around till then
I don't want to fill the air with smoke, so that all the children choke
I don't want to build a million stars
I don't want to drink the tab at bars
I don't want to douse my brother flames if i did it would be a shame
I don't want to light the blow up
I don't want to push with the shove
I don't want to have to tell you again, I just want to hold your hand
i just want to hold your hand
as walk through the lands

great falls wash away the ground
bunny hop away now you're safe and sound
but not to the south that is where you’ll drown
and the north is barbed, fenced, and guarded by a hound
wire cutters could vivisect the lie
or we could just grow wings and fly
the dessert moat is the place that we’ll die
if just let loose and cry
wire cutters could vivisect the lie
or we could just grow wings and fly
the dessert moat’s not the place that we’ll die
if all we do is let loose and try

Halo

sometimes i like to put on a halo
put on a halo and fly
but i just seem to sit down and lay low
sit down and law low and die
sometimes i like to put on a halo
put on a halo and fly
but i just seem to sit down and lay low
sit down and law low and die
i saw her singing there
pale beacon skin and dark black despair
i could tell from her raven hair
at stake was my heart so rare
at stake was my heart so rare
sometimes i like to put on a halo
put on a halo and fly
but i just seem to sit down and lay low
sit down and law low and die
sometimes i like to put on a halo
put on a halo and fly
but i just seem to sit down and lay low
sit down and law low and die
and you know that i'll see her \there
and you know that i'll see her there
gone will be her raven hair
replaced with a circle flair
and on her back wings in a pair
i want to go to mexico, where the ice is clear and the water is cold
i want to go to mexico, where the ice is clear and the water is cold
i want to go to mexico, where the ice is clear and the water is cold
i want to go to mexico, where the ice is clear and the water is cold
i want to go to mexico, where the ice is clear and the water is cold
i want to go to mexico, where the ice is clear and the water is cold
i want to go to mexico, where the ice is clear and the water is cold
sometimes i like to put on a halo
put on a halo and fly
but i just seem to sit down and lay low
sit down and law low and die
sometimes i like to put on a halo
put on a halo and fly
but i just seem to sit down and lay low
sit down and law low and die

i once had this friend
and for his sake we'll call him ken
he used to run and talk with deer
he told them about his fear
they told him to stop being silly and not to work about the end
i once was eating my food
while i was reading a book by vonnegut
but before i got to use ice nine
the book slipped from these hands of mine
oh the symbolism is pretty hard to refute
the universe won't and its not out of our reaches
to quit our jobs find a farmer's market and buy some peaches
we'll hit the road move out west in an used rv
and spend the rest of our lives as electricity

Start the Stars

the universe is expanding
at quite an alarming rate
all the light galaxies pulsars
are leaving, its their fate
as the years drift by
we grow so much further apart
but must our hearts be stars
or could our hearts be new starts
i don't want to be hydrogen
yearning for a black hole's pull
when all the time is gone
i will be yearning still
we're not on a cold iron rock
floating in the unknown dark
we have the greenest grass the bluest skies
and we're orbiting the warmest spark
i don't want to lead a life of isolation
just to pretend to be free
every morning when i wake up i choose
to have you pulling on me
i don't want to lead a life of isolation
just to pretend to be free
every morning when i wake up i choose
to have you pulling on me

Still

let's smile wide for the love of man
hold out our haggard empty hands
throw revolt against car care walls
adorn mourning and carry palls
lets sell our fights and pet a rat
greet ourselves with a welcome mat
unlock the doors let answers fly
do the numbers and simplify
lets use our heads and think a bit
forget that our world reeks of shit
hit the hills find the last green glen
lie in the dirt and hear the plan
i woke on one tepid morning, your pale skin was still glimmering
i could tell last night it was storming, your frail frame was still shivering
for some time the rain now's been been pouring, neath the quilt were still quivering
but i hear a pleasant past is roaring, the silver spark is still shimmering

i need a drink to get me through the night
i need a drink to make feel alright
i need a drink so that i can talk to you
i need a drink so i can feel more blue
i could pick myself up,
but i'd just let myself down
i need a drink so my hands don't shake
i need a drink cuz you said you were late
i need a drink so i’m ragged company
i need a drink so we'll be sorry for me
i could pick myself up
but i'd let myself down
i need a drink so i can't survive
i need a drink how else can i drink and drive
i need a drink for the brevity of life
i need a drink for an eternity of strife
i could pick myself up
but i'd let myself down
i could pick myself up
but i’m way too down

the screams you hear
are just the clock
i'll break its gears
squash our fears
and we'll forget
that morning nears
but when the sun
does appear
i think that i have
a good idea
let's go to the ice cream shop
get a split with cherries on top
you’ll be the empress and get a root beer float
and i’ll be your king and order us a coke
let's go to the ice cream shop
i wish that stupid clock
would just stop
it's ticking away
counting the day
reminding me
you’re going away
i wish it'd fly
to Paraguay
before you go though
i'd like to say
let's go to the ice cream shop
get a split with cherries on top
you’ll be the empress and get a root beer float
and i’ll be your king and order us a coke
let's go to the ice cream shop

Jakuta and Carl Washington D.C., D.C.
Jakuta and Carl was founded in the past. They may exist in the future. Right now they are in a state of limbo. They like traveling, yet they don't. They like recording, yet they don't. They make music that is electroacoustic expressions of the current frustrating climate [which is warm, very warm, both in the heart and air]. List, end, joy! ... more
