lyrics

I used to have this rubber shark with a hollow body and red lined teeth I played with in the bathtub. No rubber ducky could survive it's underwater attack, bendy fin slicing through bubbles when I was supposed to be washing my hair. Once I started taking showers, it swam off, now it's eating some kid in California's rubber duck.
My friends and I would go to the same beach from the ages of 18 -22 to eat hot dogs and throw rocks into the retreating tide. No one else ever found it, so we didn't have deal with parking lots full of fake tans and whining children. Year by year, though, it just wasn't the same. One of my friends was sucked into the undertow while looking for rare coins and we never saw him again. The next year a giant squid came up on land, grabbed two of them and dove back into the ocean. When we described the way their limbs thrashed in the surf, the cops looked at us like we were high. Our parents said "well that's what you get. . . for going to beaches."
When my best friend decided to join the squid in it's undersea lair, I was just like "fuck this. I cannot swim fast enough."


These days,
I appreciate rain.
Don't have much
in the way of toys or friends
and never take baths.

Sometimes I watch documentaries about Great Whites, their rows of teeth zooming towards the camera until the screen goes blank.

Freeway Park Seattle, Washington

Much like the city park it is named after, Freeway Park the band aimed at being a structured, brutalist space with flashes of grace and beauty, but more often than not ends up dirty, slightly dangerous, and full of drunk people.
