Cellular Phone

I have become increasingly
Overwhelmed but not discouraged
And soon I’ll leave the infirmary
Feeling well
But lacking courage
Courage
And now the rockets fly above
Passing over
Cape Canaveral
There’s the woman with the drugs
In the café
By the launch pad
By the launch pad
And she is ‘gonna
Ring me up
On my Cellular Phone
So I know I’m not alone
In a world full of vampires
Come on darling
Talk me down
On that Cellular Phone
Because I can’t get home
I’m a slave to the wires
I’ve done this before
I will do it more
I have become increasingly
Overwhelmed when
I’m in public
I’m not so patient when they stare
There’s a fighter
Somewhere underneath this skin and bones
And do you know what I mean?
What I mean when I say that this girl
Has got a thing for my machine
And she is ‘gonna
Ring me up
On my Cellular Phone
So I know I’m not a lone
In a world full of Vampires
Come on darling
Talk me down
On that cellular phone
Because I can’t get home
I’m a slave to the wires
I’ve done this before
I’ve done this before
But I have given everything and more
Sometimes convinced I have the world to carry
Every day is war
And rockets fly from dusk ‘til dawn
I won’t be shaken
If ever there’s a time
Where I am gone just know I’m waiting
For you to ring
For you to ring...
Me up on my Cellular Phone
So I know I’m not alone
In a world full of vampires
Come on darling
Talk me down
On that Cellular Phone
Because I can’t get home
I’m a slave to the wires
I’ve done this before
I will do it more

Hmmmm....could this be some of that "new music"? or just a treat for us? ;) Inspiring as always - please write a poetry book!

finally, something new, and now we can all stop guessing

LOVE the new song dude!! I watched the webcast of Lolapalooza while I was @ work on Friday... about flipped out at my desk when you guys played this! Cannot wait for the new album, keep the good work up!! Again, huge props...

i give myself credit for figuring them out for the most part since the feed from lolla was botched to pieces.

oh hay jordan

you are god.

I really like it. I think what makes you a great lyricist is your ability to use ordinary thoughts, feelings, and words, and convey them extraordinarily.

Amazing. Love it.

Amazing amazing amazing. it made my day when you played this at lollapalooza.

Much Love
