better than yes

from Last Guy on the Moon by Ben Gordon Show

lyrics

It's like those dreams man
wake you stiff in the sweat from the astral pain
some jaw locked dog on your suffering leg
or a snake wrapped tight like the cotton field chains
and finally you shudder, or shake or you scream
'stead of asking the pain why it hurts in a dream
and you try saying something, something better than yes
Anyway, no's get misheard, get slapped in their faces
transmissions get thrown up before they are tasted
lost to the loser in a scrambled translation
the letters, now pixels, left you trapped at the station
It's like those scenes man
the main character left before intermission
and the actors are looking around for permission
to make up whatever, some anything shit
and the anything shit is a much better script
Anyway, don't go on planning to ever be heard
in the fields of the incoming intercept birds
no codes for the cracking
no ventures to guess
just finally say something better than yes
