I'm living on coffee and pie
I can't remember my dreams
I wander through the days, til night comes
And I get to play my guitar
Like a man on fire
Been avoiding all signs
I've seen on the way
If I don't like the game you're playing
Why do I got to play?
What are we supposed to be?
I've been sailing through my twenties
But now I'm lost at sea
When I get my shit together
I'll be sure to let you know
Call you up from wherever I've been
Stumblin and bumblin
And fumblin for the key
And tell ya, now I've got my shit together
I can make some time for you and I
Problem with a real job
Is it's too much work
Being a bum don't hold cachet,
But its got its perks
Like if I'm thinking of the future, it's just about lunch
Any further than that, I get knots in my belly and a solid hunch
That I'll never know what I'm supposed to be
If it's a joke, it's not funny, you know what I mean
CHORUS

East side princess, not wearing any shoes
I'm the California kid, I've got nothing to lose
Not my first roller coaster, I've rode this ride before
Someone clings till the other's crazy, or one of us gets bored
Still I'm tempted, as I tend to be
Only one way this gonna go, naturally
We try to be friends till that one loose night
We take off each others clothes and hope things turn out alright
It's never worked before, but let's try and try again
She could be the one who brings this loneliness to it's end
So call me Sisyphus, call me Charlie Brown
I'll keep trying to kick that ball till they put me in the ground
Could she be the same regret in a different dress?
Am I overthinking, have I beaten this to death?
Tell you true, I wasn't always this hard
But loves got a way of calcifying even the softest heart
CHORUS

End Times

We're not the first to fear the end, but the first to see it begin
We let the ignorant obfuscate a little too long
Do I really need to fill you in?
Blue ice melting, home fires raging
Better hang tough, it's gonna be a rough one
Get yourself a snorkel, buy your daddy fins
These may be the end times we find ourselves in
And I know it's hard to keep your mind from going under
But didn't you always say you wanted a place on the water?
Been a good run for apes with guns
Rift to Silicon Valley
We built up, we got down,
We were the meanest species around
But kingdoms crumble, empires fall
This one's gonna top em all
CHORUS
We're so fucked, it's so fucking fucked how fucked we are
Adios Miami, bidaya Bangladesh
The days just grow hotter the older this song gets
CHORUS

Jesse Cobb San Francisco, California
Jesse Cobb & The Golden West are a band that blends the various flavors of Californias musical history into a tangy rock n soul stew. Folding in the SoCal-slick jazz-funk sounds of Steely Dan, the earthy Americana crunch of Neil Young, and the joyful improvisation and group dynamics of Western swing, the Golden West has a raw, fiercely original sound that could only originate on the best coast. ... more
