the song is actually called "when you get your feet kicked right out from under you," but the whole title wouldn't fit. anyways, it was somewhat inspired by nick drake, and has a toy accordian which i bought for 12 dollars.

Lyrics
all the lights were yellow. speed up? slow down? i never know. now you're crying out to a god you've never seen. but you know, it's the most concrete living thing you've ever felt in your life, but now it won't suffice. so now what do you do? what can you do? when you get your feet kicked right out from under you? you press your ankle down, connect it to the ground, watch the cars fly like bullets in a drive-by. so we'll sit humbly and watch the ship sink, i wish max was here, he would draw us in pen and ink. he could capture this moment, not that i'd have a place to hang it... but somehow wilshire just bleeds in to san vicente, (i know! i was there! i see in 20/20 i got my eyes checked! doctor says i need glasses...) and there's this school i used to attend, they've killed off the kids, now they're making up the difference. i'm still making up the difference. all the lights were yellow. speed up? slow down? i never know.
