A Looping Distress Signal
Tim Kasher
Keep playin'
Keep playin'
Regardless what noise you're makin'
Keep bangin'
Keep bangin'
Pummel that piano until it croaks
The constant song
A tap-dance in Morse code
Keep writin'
Keep writin'
Even if inside you're dyin'
Keep tryin'
Keep tryin'
So music's outstretched arms have
Fallen short
The constant song
A symphony in semaphore
Ha ha ha
A looping distress signal
Keep singin'
Keep singin'
I'm certain somebody's listening
Keep dancin'
Keep dancin'
And yes, they do shoot horses when they're maimed
But you're just sprained
I thought we hoped to die before we got old
The constant song
A looping distress signal
Ha ha ha
