Final Scene (Campbell)

Lyrics:

Anna Lee's gotta feed the machine
Now that nothing is left in accounts overseas
So she's hitting the dives every Tuesday at five
Another face on the news, another negative you

Take what you need, cut them off at the knees
When you got as many keys as enemies
There's a good reason why you give your piece of the pie
To a similar guy to what you see on TV

I was right and you were green
Just before the final scene
With that money in your hand
And your numbers in demand

You won't allow what you did before now
But you survived it somehow and with steely resolve
And a bent garden rake and some roots that won't take
You are exempt from the rule about money and fools

Don't you think there's a reason why people will pay the fee?
They must know more than you or me

I was right and you were green
Just before the final scene
With that money in your hand
And your numbers in demand

Upside down, in between
Thinking you know what it means
Just before the final scene
Just before the final scene

Come Hang Out With The Band (And See Some Great Live Music)

On Sunday, April 20th, Beatnik Turtle was supposed to play at the Abbey Pub for our fourth appearance at the International Pop Overthrow. We were excited, it’s a great spring show for us, and we were gearing up to play lots of new songs from Song of the Day as well as perhaps a live version of Pizza: The Rock Opera.

Alas, the IPO this year is not to be for us. One of our band members had an emergency, and can’t make it. Instead, the band Cyclesomething will be taking our place.

And we’re going to be there.

Come on out, see some great IPO music on a Sunday afternoon, and hang out with the band in a way that you never get to when we play. Hope you can make it! We certainly will.

The abandoned notepad still lies unclaimed, now partially buried under today’s Chicago Tribune. Whose scribbles are these?
