Middle-Aged Well-Adjusted Out-of-Shape Walruses Middle-Aged Well-Adjusted Out-of-Shape Walruses

Almost threw this one away. It's basically a two chord song and even I have my pride. But I found it has interesting rhythmic qualities that were fun to play with. It utilizes two interlocking themes to build to a pretty fair intensity (see story).
