LYRICS:<\/strong>
\nWORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS!
\nYeah…Her landlord didn’t find her ’til five days later, I think.
\nAnd….Oh man! Well, you know….
\n…Kitties gotta eat.<\/p>\n

It’s very intimidating when you first
\ndecide to share your work with the world
\nand not know how it’s going to be received.<\/p>\n

Like a message in a bottle.<\/p>\n

Yeah, it is, man. You throw it out there.<\/p>\n

Did I tell you I did a message in a bottle when I was a kid?
\nThrew it in the lake?<\/p>\n

No!<\/p>\n

Yeah. My dad and I did it together.
\nIt was my idea but my dad helped me write it
\nbecause I was 7 or 8.<\/p>\n

And we said “If anybody finds this, please write
\nme a letter.”<\/p>\n

We put our home address.
\nAnd threw it in Lake Erie.
\nAnd about three weeks later we got a letter
\nfrom someone in Buffalo who found it.<\/p>\n

I love the sound of my own voice.
\nEven though I think I sound
\nlike a stoned surfer,
\nand I’m neither…<\/p>\n

Stuffin’ a bottle of hope into the squirrel….
\n…BipperTronix…<\/p>\n

It was in the lobby of the World Trade Center
\nand I was with this girl….<\/p>\n

….Plush velvet seats
\nand a coffee bar and everything….
\nHe got, like, really weird and he disappeared.<\/p>\n

He was gonna throw the breaker on the whole thing!
\nI think he had a mental breakdown!
\nI had to talk him down.
\nI literally had to talk him down
\nto not do it, man.
\nAnd then he really wasn’t the same
\nafter that for a while.
\nIt was really weird.<\/p>\n

It was the sitar music.<\/p>\n

Robert Fripp was just playing in a place of business
\nthe biggest office building in the world, in the lobby.
\nYou can’t expect everyone to shut up for 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

The wheels of industry can’t grind to a halt
\n(just) because someone’s playing ambient music….<\/p>\n

Worms.
\nWorms.<\/p>\n

WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS! WORMS!<\/p>\n
