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.

All vocals, guitar, bass, drums, lyrics, etc. by Andy.
Come for the '70s Dodge pickup on the cover. Stay for Americana/Folk music played like rock-n-roll (a winning formula if there ever was one). THE GHOSTS THAT I RUN WITH is nothing short of AWESOME. Andy Smash & the Rust Belt Hotrods
Synths abound on the new single from Hearts and Rockets—icy cold, sharp, and minimal, and topped with a punk rock sneer. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 22, 2020
Restless, agitated no wave for modern times built around razor-sharp guitar and roiling percussion from Jane Doe Ensemble. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2022
