Hey coffee eyes.
You got me coughin' up my cookie heart.
Makin' promises to myself.
Promises like seeds of everything I could be.

Hey Ringwald haze.
We're using bruises too loosely in a haste to lose me.
And I've given all I could give.
We live in quick flips, slips, tips, and taps to snap us outta these statue traps.

And I've taken all I could take.
Hey ring walled haze.
We're using judo like Bruce Lee in a haste to bruise me.
And I've given all I could give..
I've taken all I could take.
I've pushed all that I could push.
I've pulled all that I could pull.

Kitty kitty cat, kitty kitty cat.
Thin kids get a skinny neck hex.
Heads hang heavy.
i'm feelin' heavy.

Museum mouth, museum mouth, my how you've misused me.

    General Comment:Cap n Jazz was great, i just hate all the "Rules" with underground bands. If the guys never really had a falling out then they should do a huge reunion show, it should be directed by Tim Kinsella, and he should get the members from all his projects to come out and do like a 3 day show. Cap n Jazz, Joan of Arc, Owls, Aloha, sky corvair..etc.
    Sam Zurick and Tim Kinsella, were in like all of these, im pretty sure, and nate kinsella was a drummer, they could do it, but they dont, and you know what, it would be HUGE!!!! if you promoted it right! kids would be flying out to chicago immediately!!!!

    I just think it couuld be really great, Im a musician, and i know how it can get frustrating being in a band, but when your not in a band, you can really miss it. and these guys should do this. if they have already , wonderful, if not, get on it! i know i would loooovve to see OWLS, MAKE BELIEVE, GHOSTS AND VODKA. it would be awesome
    i know i can write about another 1000 words on the subject, but you get my point, TIM KINSELLA can really make it great, he knows what he has to do, but thats when i come back to the rules, and how people cant do certain things, cuz its too mainstream, or money is involved...its so dumb. give me some insight people, what do you think?

    General Comment:It's sometimes unbelievable to me that someone could create such amazing and unique music as this, the first time I heard this song I was silent and after the album ended... I was still silent, they just totally blew me away, and still do. I have never heard anything like it and I know I never will. It's Perfect. Incredible Band.

    Song Meaning:Instead of "my how you've misused me," I can definitely hear "my, museum mouth, how I've misused you." This has a completely different meaning, and one that better fits the context of the song, in my opinion. I still an unable to tell most of what he is screaming at the end of the song. (Though I think it's the lines before, repeated and slurred.)

    General Comment:I saw Make Beileve before I even knew who Kinsella was, but now that I do, I'm really really really happy that I got the priviledge to see them. I wish Cap'n Jazz would do a reunion tour, they'd probably get a lot of people at their shows these days.
