Hello Dog Love
02:36
|
|||
|
Hello all you lovely beautiful people giving me your attention, I want to say "I love you." I don't need to know your name to know your face is not the same as any other one that I have ever seen. Have you ever loved a dog or cat? Well I want you to feel like that about one another. Each of us deserves it. So take your love for what it's worth: the best thing about life on earth is being with and loving one another.

Rotate

|

|
Come a little closer and rotate. Don't be afraid. The snowflake is your answer. The question's never the same. Gather all the light that shimmer around you and swallow it down to your moon. Sway in the wind of the solar depression with roots dug down in the earth. Little dear by the freeway please don't try to cross. The grass ain't any greener and who knows what is lost? I hope that you can hear me. You eyes are open wide. You have the right to fear me. You open up my mind.

Clean and Serene
03:32

Clean and serene just for a day. Stuck in between all the things we say. Now I'm free from friends and phones. I can see my way home because I'm clean and serene. Now I know what people say in the crowd and on the stage. I want them to stay away. Please don't bother me today because I'm clean and serene. Clean and serene one day in a row. All I know is I don't know. Who is love? What am I? No one knows but I will try because I'm clean and serene.

Orange Flower

Orange flower. Golden poppy. Flower power. Overtake me. Do you feel alone, afraid to say you feel the same as yesterday. We are still unknown growing by the bay. Mastering our minds and finding our own way. Follow me into the river the water will cleanse our souls and if we die at least we gave our lives for freedom, rock and roll.

Why
03:08
|
|||
|
Do you recall the time when I was what was one your mind? When we were seventeen I was the best you'd ever seen. So why am I down on my knees again? I'm calling you out my friend. I don't want to say that I'm sorry again because I love you more than lines of blow and I'm gunna take you where the angels want to go and they won't know. So why would you want to make me feel so bad when all I ever try to do is make you smile. I don't ever think i will understand why you want to talk me down. You kill Jesus. You kill Abraham too. You kill Martin so what are you gunna do? Why am I down on my knees again? I'm calling you out my friend. I don't want to say that I'm sorry again because I love you more than you will know and I'm going to take you where the angels want to go and they won't know. They won't know.

Go back to the green world again where the pelicans clean the oceans and the people don't seem dead. Some birds lay their eggs in the trees. Some birds lay their eggs on the beach. All that I think we should do is return to the forest where I fell in love with you and all time in since the universe began was a buildup to this moment we are holding in our hands. Some birds lay their eggs on the beach. Run away like a greyhound with me. Let's remember all the smog and assholes from our house beside the sea because you are the greenest grass in town if I was a horse I'd eat you and let my tears fall to the ground. Some birds lay their eggs on the beach. Go back to the green world again where the pelicans clean the ocean and the people don't seem dead.

Mila's Song
02:44
|

|
I see that the world is nothing more than just a dream and I know I would never be a part of waking up. When I think of all the possibility is what I want to drink with you my darling just the two of us. If you see me on a mountainside with Buddha walking by my side, know that we would want you there. We both love your pretty hair and when we reach our igloo home our perfect translucent frozen dome chant with us these magic words and we will all be humming birds. I know that the moon is just a little girl's balloon and I know it will go on floating and never pop. When I reach the sun I know that he will smile at me and I know he will go on shining and never stop. There are just so many more parallel realities to consider when you know say I'm lost and never to be found.

Dropping Bombs

Dropping bombs from way up high to down below, from in the sky our semen flows. Dropping bombs from way up high to down below from in the sky our vengeance flows.

Gobots in the mud. Rust stays off their plastic parts. Once they were alive in childrens eyes with pounding hearts. Now they are all quiet. They're cold and dreamless and black as night. Gundam, Sailor Moon. I dig that robot shit from Japan. They get the new shit first and that's a rip for us American kids. We like robots too! Who invented the Truckasaurus? Gundam Wing engaged. Japanese robot neutralized.

Data's Song
05:14
|
|||
|
Love wasn't invented here on earth. It's found everywhere in the universe. If you can't find love here on earth you should look elsewhere in the universe. If we could love like Data our love would last forever and you love for me would last eternally. How can life survive on the Starship Enterprise far from the place where life began? What sort of man would have a machine for a best friend? What signal would that send to his fellow men? How can Geordi know Data has the empathy upon which friendship depends. I heard Data cry. I saw his tears and I know why. Because he knows how to live. He knows how to die. What sort of man would have a machine for a best friend? What signal would that send to his fellow men? How can Geordi know for sure he looks at Data not at Lore. Through his visor can he see into the heart of the machine?

We can change but we'll revert. This is why we wear this shirt so please don't cry, please don't flirt. We know what it's life to hurt. We are all just sons of Kurt.

What Could Go Wrong?
04:56
|
|||
|
Trip around the garden looking for some shit or a nice place to sit down on. I could use a place to sit. I rub my hands together and see you with red eyes. Get a little distance from all the other flies. Something smells so sweet. What is it that I smell? Perfectly delicious! Like the gates of hell. Here's a place to sing, a place to rest my wings. I hope that it's a flower. Whatever it is it stinks. Whatever it is it stinks. An endless colonnade of colors and of shades twist into my gaze, in and out of faze. A magical motif symbolizing peace. No dragons left to slay. Nothing to do but play. Nothing to do by play. What could go wrong?

Hey Mr. Jones how does it feel when you're all alone what is real? Wake up early and rub your eyes and find your voice to greet the day just like you did the day before and every day and ever more like all the rest of life on earth continually giving birth our lives are lives through light and dark and oh my god it's just a day like this. Hey Mr. Jones how does it feel to get so fucking stoned? What is real? In the dark in my disguise I reconnect with other lives and open up my heart to them and live inside my mom again. I find myself just five years old remember how I was so bold and saw the world in black and white illuminated by soft light like this.

When the questions getting spiritual you're playing your guitar and the plane is going down and you're playing your guitar. Ollie's not coming back.

Humboldt Squid Santa Cruz, California
Marc Brown and Mark Quinn are Humboldt Squid. We formed in LA back in 2003!! Back then there was a huge squid die-off and thousands washed up on the shore in Long Beach. That's how we got our name. We love playing music together. We had some amazing shows last year and we are going to have some great ones this year. We will also be releasing an EP and our "lost" record, Fantasticum. Share the love ... more
