I've got what you want But you've got what I need I may have a broken heart But you'll just make it bleed I need something real 'Cause all I feel is fake I'll try hard to be born again And maybe this one takes Altar call, altar call, now my back's against the wall. Altar call, salvation by remote control. Got born again in youth group Got born again in camp The music started playing And every eye was damp My girlfriend's father prayed with me In his pickup truck I know I'm bound for heaven, But right now my life just sucks Altar call, altar call, now my back's against the wall. Altar call, salvation by remote control. I've turned my back on hatred I've turned my back on pride So tell me why it is I feel All broken-up inside? My life's a haze of bread and wine And peanut-butter fluff I've been saved like 50 times So tell me what's enough? Altar call, altar call, now my back's against the wall. Altar call, salvation by remote control. Altar call, altar call, now you've got me feeling small. Altar call, salvation by remote control.

Stuck here with these Junior High kids jacked up on caffeine I've been teaching Sunday School since I was 17 Please don't get me wrong--right now I'm trying to be mean I don't wanna be here and that's why I say Hey, I don't like your attitude Hey, I'm so sure you're being rude Hey, sometimes I feel a lot like Judas Judy you'd look better with a touch of middle class Tom, I'd solve your problems with a foot square in yr ass Bobby, Jane and Charlie, you're all right, yr dad's got cash But I don't wanna be here, and that's why I say Hey, I don't like your attitude Hey, I'm so sure you're being rude Hey, sometimes I feel a lot like Judas Teaching Junior High kids is a dirty, thankless job The only way I'd do it is to get in good with God But right about now, I could do a rubout for the mob I don't wanna be here, and that's why I say Hey, I don't like your attitude Hey, I'm so sure you're being rude Hey, sometimes I feel a lot like Judas

Something about a bunch of ancient tombs, bones, and things blowing up. Beyond that I'm not sure...

Riding on the freeway, Running low on gas, Gotta use the bathroom, You know I'm gonna pass! Motor's really pounding, Building up some speed-- An open stretch of highway Is what I really need. Get outta the way! Get outta the way! Get outta the way! Get outta the way! Move into the left-hand lane Traffic's way too slow Heading for the white line Got no place to go Motor's really pounding, Building up some speed-- An open stretch of highway Is what I really need. Get outta the way! Get outta the way! Get outta the way! Get outta the way!

This ain't the first time But it's the worst, and I walk right up to the prison gate With my gym bag in my hands. Don't wanna be here I grit my teeth and I do my best to find a way To surrender like a man. I don't wanna go to camp I don't wanna go to camp Humiliation Indoctrination in the kinds of things you gotta do To be successful as a slave. Deprecation Try to forget all the things I did to raise the cash So I could do the things I hate. I don't wanna go to camp I don't wanna go to camp Nobody likes me, nobody cares. And I try to find a way to ease the suffering But I know I never can. To fill the hours, I'll find some craft, and I'll do my best to try to earn Another worthless rubber stamp. I don't wanna go to camp I don't wanna go to camp This ain't the first time But it's the worst, and I walk right up to the prison gates With the future in my hands.

Throat is dry and feet are sore Should not have eaten all those s'mores You may love the great outdoors, But we won't take this any more! Scout Camp Death March Scout Camp Death March You keep us on the double-quick You will not stop, you must be sick! Don't put down your walking stick, 'Cause when you do, your ass is kicked! Scout Camp Death March Scout Camp Death March Watch the scenery plod by See the hatred in our eyes Hope you've said your last goodbye, 'Cause when we stop, you're gonna die. Scout Camp Death March Scout Camp Death March Scout Camp Death March Scout Camp Death March...

I am the gatekeeper and I will help you find The way to live your life with perfect peace of mind Just do the things I say, do them the best you know Just do the things I say, because I tell you so. Oh, no, it's unconventional war! Oh, no, it's so unconventional! I am the gatekeeper, I'm here to let you know Which things you get to do, which places you can go You can decide whichever way you want to choose To do the things I have in mind for you to do. Oh, no, it's unconventional war! Oh, no, it's so unconventional! "Things will be different when ________" "Things will be different when ________" "Things will be different when ________" "Things will be different when ________" "Things will be different when ________" "Things will be different when ________" "Things will be different when ________" "Things will be different when ________" Oh, no, it's unconventional war! Oh, no, it's so unconventional! So three-dimensional... So unintentional...

You wanna know What I think? I think this situation really stinks. You call it faith, Your trust in luck-- But when things fall apart, I'm the one who's stuck. And you don't recall-- You don't recall-- When things go wrong you don't recall. Natty tie, Clean shirt-- But I'm the one who's doing all the work! You say it's fate, It's gotta be, But I'm the one who gets PTSD. And you don't recall-- You don't recall-- When things go wrong you don't recall... You want a song? Well, here you go. You asked for my opinion, now you know. You think you're great, But you're wrong-- And I'm the guy who said so all along. But you don't recall-- You don't recall-- When things go wrong you don't recall.

about

This EP was originally undertaken by me (Andy) as a 48-hour project. Most of what's here was written and recorded within one 48-hour period, from July 26th to July 29th, 2011. None of it existed before then; some finishing touches were added afterwards.

Two songs were recorded a little later, using the same process and pace: "Unconventional War" (recorded August 3rd, using tracks from the original session) and "Scout Camp Death March" which was tracked on August 6th.

Things were pretty "ghetto," let me tell ya. Mic setups (when we even used them) involved more-or-less random placements of random microphones. Drums were tracked to cassette: three tracks, mono. Tape was used or discarded stock. Artifacts of the process can be heard throughout, which may help to explain the weirdness at the beginning of "Unconventional War."

Likewise, the approach to subject matter & lyrics was slapdash at best. Time was short, so I decided to give my inner 15-year-old free reign. My inner 15-year-old also offered to do the album artwork. Knowing the amount of experience my inner 15-year-old has with drawing stick figures I decided to go ahead and let him do it.

It's a little rough in patches. But like I said, that's part of the unique process that produced this nightmare. Hope you enjoy. Have fun at camp, kids!
