about

I wrote this song based on a conversation I had on a WFMU chatboard. I sort of associated it with Sweat Enzo... maybe I'll rope him into doing a better version of it some day. Or not.

lyrics

We're tape tornado and the rock and roll disasters
rocking off a cliff couldn't burn out any faster
We're tape tornado and the rock and roll disasters
rocking inferno couldn't burn out any faster
all I want to do, is take all your shoes
and throw them into a volcano, why I don't know!
Cause I'm tape tornado and the rock and roll disasters
rocking inferno couldn't burn out any faster
it was 1983, down in Albuquerque, when a tornado hit the tape factory
I was on my way to school, gee I thought this is really cool
tapes raining down round my subdivision
that really got my 9 year old attention
when I grow up I wanna be, a piece of musical disaster history
cause I'm tape tornado and the rock and roll disasters
rocking off a cliff couldn't burn out any faster
We're tape tornado and the rock and roll disasters
rocking inferno couldn't burn out any faster
