Below Tripping
from This Came First by Wiping Out Thousands
lyrics
If we were all neighbors,
Would there be right and left?
Certainly, but nothing to do with politics.
We would find each other.
There would be men and women and their children.
There could even be God, certainly in fact, but only a God for that man and that child, and one for each of us.
A yard for everyone’s family.
Baseball on every block, tennis on every other.
Kittens and cows and horses.
Bright and dark clouds full of heavy rain,
Wind and sun together, shade under rustling leaves.
In the houses, bright warm kitchens and living rooms for intimate memories of childhood.
For sitting on father’s lap, rocking away tears.
Would there be right and left?
Certainly, but nothing to do with politics.
We would find each other.
There would be men and women and their children.
There could even be God, certainly in fact, but only a God for that man and that child, and one for each of us.
A yard for everyone’s family.
Baseball on every block, tennis on every other.
Kittens and cows and horses.
Bright and dark clouds full of heavy rain,
Wind and sun together, shade under rustling leaves.
In the houses, bright warm kitchens and living rooms for intimate memories of childhood.
For sitting on father’s lap, rocking away tears.

about
Wiping Out Thousands Minneapolis, Minnesota
WoT derives it's name from the Alvin Toffler novel "Future Shock."
Like a tidal wave
consuming a densely-populated island of sentient robots, Wiping out Thousands’ brand of electro - equal parts abrasive and gorgeous - reaches out from their home base of Minneapolis to the far corners of the grimy neon futurescape of tomorrow.

Just listened the material. Simply beautiful, like a story told by a good friend. Has some irreverent, black humor that is delicious. Great album Jeremy. Cheers from Queretaro (central Mexico)
