You have you to complete and there is no deal

Here’s today’s playlist.


The Seven O’Clock Special was “Jiggy Sawdust/Gumshoe” by The Catheads. It’s the album I was fanning myself with during the Lambchop brunch at Grimey’s on Sunday. It was 99 cents plus tax. Thanks to Walt for pointing out that I should play it on my show. Then we heard “Paperback Bible,” the first track from the brand-new Lambchop album, Damaged.


Stand
In the end you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do

Stand
There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere

Stand
For the things you know are right
It s the truth that the truth makes them so uptight

Stand
All the things you want are real
You have you to complete and there is no deal

Stand, stand, stand
Stand, stand, stand

Stand
You've been sitting much too long
There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong

Stand
There's a midget standing tall
And the giant beside him about to fall

Stand, stand, stand
Stand, stand, stand

Stand
They will try to make you crawl
And they know what you're saying makes sense and all

Stand
Don't you know that you are free
Well at least in your mind if you want to be

Everybody
Stand, stand, stand


—“Stand,” Sly and the Family Stone
