lyrics

Casey was into chai for a few months last year
Saw the errors of his ways and came back 'round here
Don't know why he ran away from all that we hold dear
But Casey was into chai for a few months last year

I remember the day when Casey ran away
Bought a Radiohead album and got on the plane
With jeans lookin' pretty tight
And Noam Chomsky in his hand
He said he'd eat some French pastries and start an indie rock band

Casey found that comforts were few and far between
No country sunsets or cans of grillin' beans
Squirrel shootin's illegal
No subservient wives
They even check the length of your fishin' and huntin' knives

Casey returned amid claps and loud cheers
We bought him a Luger and a case of light beer
Never again will he ever set foot
Where there's so little ammunition
And so many books

by el-tin fun

The perfect fall album. Poppy, droney, surfy, noisy, grungy, whatever else you want. "Cactus Flower and the Willameans" is quite the jam. Leonard the Comet
