lyrics
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Its not your fault everything is dying
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
I’ll always love you but have no use for your guidance
I often fantasize
about a martyr like demise
where I collide
with my doppelganger but can't identify
The traits that make us similar just disenfranchised
I push him into traffic and we both die....
The toxicology report of my corpse
Will finally admit denial was my drug of choice
The benefits of self employed
Is that your unemployed
It makes you hungry for what you want but you must avoid
Free thinking is an endangered concept
Co-opted by corporate sponsored op-ed's
When did giving a fuck go extinct
I must of miss the link
amidst
The
Click
Bate
Designed to shrink
Our brains and our dicks
And our ability to think about
A future thats totally fucked but doable
At least we'll have craft brew and can sleep inside a cubicle
Im trying to harness my vinyasa flow and make renewable
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Its not your fault everything is dying
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
I’ll always love you but have no use for your guidance
We wanna be remembered more than we wanna live
Dying young will be our crowning accomplishment
It’s not an accurate assessment of my character
It’s just the current mood of all of my accomplices
You wonder why we strive to do dope with our idols
No wonder why we take photo after fucking photo
You wonder why idolize the clinically insane
You wonder why we lives our lives with the doors closed
You’ve got a case of cognitive dissonance
Im hitting this J to symbolize generational differences
There’s no science involved in propaganda
Just the pocket change of influential grandpas
All our conversations our telepathic
I do my best to keep my whereabouts enigmatic
Those unshakeable opinions override the need for action
Mother nature has no say because she don’t pay taxes
Im so repulsed Im repressing all my memories
We share the same blood but ideals our enemies
Is there an algorithm hiding the writing on the wall?
Like your not seeing the same “come to Jesus” at all?
It all makes sense to me but Im a “Commie”
Antagonizing yuppies til they lock me up and rob me
of a free mind leaving me at the will of here say
I just hope I witness the moment it clicks in your brain
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Its not your fault everything is dying
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
I’ll always love you but have no use for your guidance
We wanna be remembered more than we wanna live
Dying young will be our crowning accomplishment
It’s not an accurate assessment of my character
It’s just the current mood of all of my accomplices
You wonder why we strive to do dope with our idols
No wonder why we take photo after fucking photo
No wonder why idolize the clinically insane
No wonder why we lives our lives with the doors closed
5 billion Tiny axes….chipping away at the core
5 billion Tiny axes….chipping away at the core
5 billion Tiny axes….chipping away at the core
5 billion Tiny axes….chipping away at the core
Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science

Oh you’ve got it down to a science
Oh you’ve got it down to a science

Eyedea: The Many Faces of Mikey
by Micheal Larsensupported by 33 fans who also own “Down To A Science”
I have been listening to variations of this album a long time. I remember I was living in a cardboard dumpster when some young guy was like yo dude it's gonna rain come crash on my couch. He played The Many Faces of Oliver Hart for me. I fell in love, I set my favorite track as Rain because we looped it when the rain came. That was one of the early acts of kindness I received in the nearly 20 years I've been homeless.

This Guitar Was Stolen Along With Years Of Our Lives
by Ceschisupported by 25 fans who also own “Down To A Science”
Sometimes you come across an artist that is compelled to do what they do. I appreciate the musicality and the arrangement and the artistry of the songs. He sings and plays like his life depends on it. I appreciate the humanity of the lyrics… Like reading Tortilla Flats, or watching Nobody’s Fool. Ceschi is a bright star. I’m glad he’s loose in the world.
