Sad City Sad City
TOXIC MONKEYS - This song is metaphorical, but you don't need to know the metraphor to appreciate the song: leaving a sad city. (Thanks, hugely to Jim Miller for his astounding sax work! Link to Jim's site is on the lyrics page.)

TOXIC MONKEYS - I wrote this about my wife, but don't tell anyone because it embarrasses her to have songs written about her.

Living with Legends Living with Legends
TOXIC MONKEYS - My big brother had all these old 45 RPM records, with crackles and skips. Sometimes they'd get stuck and repeat the same lines over. This is a song that plays with that idea...thinking of the past and life, in general.
Waiting on the Lady Waiting on the Lady
TOXIC MONKEYS - One way or another, for one reason or another, I spend a lot of time waiting for my lady. Mind you; she's worth waiting for!

Ticket to a Miracle Ticket to a Miracle
TOXIC MONKEYS - This is a song about depression and imagination. (I've written about 900 songs, I estimate. I think this is in the top 10. The recording doesn't do it justice, perhaps.)
The Old Rainman The Old Rainman
BLOOD RED POP - This is a very old story told in a very odd way.
