Maybe Man 02:54
If you met him on the highway If you met him in a dam If you stuck him in a river Then you'd know my maybe man And if you left me on the sidewalk And the crack turned ricky red Then you'd know my pinky toe flake And my hanky hanky head And then you'll know, and then you'll know And then you'll into the night stream go And then you'll know and then you'll know And then you'll understand My laser light beam show Once upon a dream I was in your band you were my camera I slept under a tree and I Wept all over your knee Oh no, oh no Never too late to waste your life Oh no, oh no And in the la-dee-da-dee-da-dee-da-dee-da...

I prefer to see with eyes closed color negative Hard to swim in dead water frozen ribcage Trip down the stairs, hang from pipes My job's a bore! Get me to the controls

Nine hundred seagulls later The good people of Zion were saved Left alone with locust lunchboxes; a Breathless barrier in seven plagues; A plug-in to the post-mortem majesty mayday And yet everything worked out OK Yes, each of us will die in a different way And Pharoah may sit upon our graves But if we listen yet to the sanskrit scribe Unfolding a torn scroll: - "the scarab beetle scurrying just scratches the surface of your immortal soul" Perhaps we will rise from the judgment tombs These earthborn wombs, each of us hovering six feet over the ground, the holy sound! trumpets blaring! Bombastic and terrible! See, the last hope leans Astrally undulating And under udders sagging The sores of the reborn, You think: what luck to have found yourself Here again sucking your mother's great big boob

about

Questions For Moon was recorded to 1/4" 4-track reel to reel(what will in the future become the dominant recording process aside from mono, really) at Hot Soup in Anacortes, WA for the KLAPS label. The lyrics are by KLAPS supporters who just happen to be some really interesting people. Probably because they chose this option for supporting at the KLAPS fundraiser they had a propensity for composition of words . Submissions were received in October of 2011, then recorded in October and November of 2011.

I hope you enjoy this, it was extraordinarily fun to make all of these poems into songs I would write.

Karl Blau Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

These records are all over the place. My latest studio record Love & Harm consists of a modern country rock sound featuring the pedal steel of Jon Hyde (Introducing) and amazing players you'd recognize from playing on stage with me. Living in Germantown, Philadlephia, started a recording project called Opal Eskar, check that out too. ... more
