You set the radio to scan
but even the classical music station is stuck on the Magnificat.
You start to look around for a turnabout
but the sky is dark as judgment day
and your nerve gives out.
Your grandfather will fuss about the car.
Your grandmother will fuss about the fuss
you put everyone through.
Your aunt will make too much of a show in your defense.
Your uncle won't even look up
from the football game to greet you.

I made a video game, and this is the soundtrack by my Casiotone guitar pop / ambient / experimental music project. That's a weird digression but sometimes life is like that. Harrison Lemke
