it could be old sound feeling turned around i couldn't ever guess who'd do better no one has ever told me i'm not intense tumbling over each other on the wet street sitting through all of that campy screen gore if only i weren't so committted to closure no one has ever told me i'm not intense

Day 8: falling asleep (free) 01:20
It took some wandering I'll tell you that before I ended here My eyes are nearly closed. Tiny weights are tied to my eyelashes. in a magazine under the headline “NEWS WHEN THERE IS NONE.” I will not say I told you so. I promise I will not say anything today if you promise to let me talk all day tomorrow. I’m indifferent, maybe I guess that’s a good thing, I got over it.

12.
I fell down the common stairs made a scene in front of my neighbors the girl in the bathrobe who smokes all day was still stifling laughter as I passed when it happens that we momentarily see the same thing it takes all of me not to stop breathing generally I keep things to my self on my little internal display shelf

I wanna be on the beach I wanna go ride my bike I wanna go drink some beer I'd rather be anywhere but here don't make me go to class what the heck am i doing back in school's gonna kick my ass don't make me go to class
15.
don't buy me chocolate chips I'll eat the whole bag in ten minutes while I stare at the computer screen Don't wake me up tomorrow I worked hard today so I deserve to sleep in Life's so full of distractions every time I move my eyes I'm already not listening Life's so full of confusions every talk is rife with new misunderstanding but it's ok i'll just pretend until we both forget we're mad there's no way to not divert my eyes from that
16.
(KIMYA DAWSON) The beer I had for breakfast was a bottle of mad dog And my 20/20 vision was fifty percent off You said punch-buggy red and punched me right in my left eye I said don't you mean pediddle? and I lit his house on fire He came home on acid I was holding his shotgun I was dressed like tina turner in beyond thunder dome He said don't shoot, I said I won't I love you you're my friend I handed him my wig and shot myself in the head Then I stuffed a box of tissues in the hole in my skull I got in my mazda and I drove to the mall I got a big johnson shirt and some silicone tits When I pulled out the tissues they were covered with shit And the beer I had for breakfast was a box of cheap white wine And the boom box on my shoulder was a box of clementines I ate every single one without noticing the mold You said you're gross my darling, I said no I'm rock and roll Even though I'd never ever been in a band I got cool as black ice tattooed on my hand And the christians gave me comic books as if I would be scared Of burning in hell well I was already there And the beer I had for breakfast silver bullet in the brain And the beer I had for lunch was a bottle of night train And the beer I had for dinner was my crazy neighbor's pills We had to sit down on skateboards jut to make it down the hill Then I peed my pants and you stole the groom's cigar And some old man made me watch him masturbate locked in his car When I got back to the apartment you were face down on the floor You said don't go to bed yet let's go get a 64 And the beer I had had for breakfast was a pint of jim beam And a fifth of peach schnapps and some warm sunny d And you said bottoms up just as I bottomed out I tried to scream fuck you but blood was pouring out my mouth Evan dando never planned on telling you the truth And your leonardo i.d. card is your fountain of youth You can be a teenager for your whole fucking life Just find some pretty sucker and make that bitch your wife I guess by now you all know my friends danny broke his neck He was driving home from sirens when he got into a wreck First I cried for him and then I cried for me Haunted by the ghost of the girl I used to be But the rocks with holes are warm in my hands And I buried my toes in the hot hot sand And the silver pink pony kisses me and says

Day 18: never fails (free) 01:37
19.
(THE BEETS) Fast food feels fuzzy Cause it tastes like stuff that's scuzzy I used to feel like such a nerd I refused to eat that strange bean curd I didn't eat it -ow- but it ate you Aw-wee-oo Killer Tofu Eee-aw-wee Iee-oo Killer Tofu I eat my sugared cereal But it makes my teeth bacterial Ee-awee-oo EE-awee If you're feeling kind of cruddy Just stick beside your buddy And don't eat too much fried food -ow- Aw-wee-oo Killer Tofu Eee-aw-wee Iee-oo Killer Tofu
20.
Day 20: dear cabbage (free) 01:33
Dear cabbage I know I talked lots of shit about you when we first met Maybe we can just start over shake hands hang out and see what happens I've had a change of heart I hope it's not overly explicit I really think you're delicious I just didn't know where to start I've had a change of heart I hope it's not overly explicit I think we've got some chemistry I just didn't know how to slice it
21.
i feel angry stifled kind of broken but still aware of the charm
22.
I am really good at wasting time on google image search Just tell me how you feel and I bet I can find a cute animal pic an inside joke your favorite maybe it'll help us think the past was full of feeling and a meaning that has since been lost always living last year we must admit that we're always living last year I live my life in stories thinking everything I do through how I'll tell it to my mom next time we skype or how I'd see myself if I were looking in from outside or from above place in the sky The future's full of feeling and a meaning that's already lost

Day 26: jekyll & hyde (free) 01:28
the magic doctor was quite at ease having rid himself of that unspeakable dis-ease what are we if not divided something queer that dwells behind it
27.
This one's for the jerk who stole my bike Good luck sawing through kryptonite I trust she'll buck you off that seat No one knows how to groove with her but me This one's for the jerk who jacked my ride You are thoroughly rotten inside No more power rides listening to TLC But at least I don't suck as much as you
28.
Day 28: derrida (free) 01:49
it's not your intention that tells me what you mean always a citation of some other version there is always an absence something missing what would a mark be that could not be cited? Or one whose origins would not get lost along the way?

(BY PILOT) January, sick and tired, you've been hangin' on me You make me sad with your eyes You're telling me lies Don't go, don't go January, don't be cold, don't be angry to me You make me sad come and see Oh January Don't go, don't go

about

An audio-take on the Fun-A-Day project, I'm making one audio product (of varying type, length, quality, concept, etc.) and something visual to accompany (though not necessarily relate to) it for every day of January. You can see the images by clicking on individual tracks.
