Lyrics:

I know that I should think about giving
and think about
helping out
and think about
think about living
but I can't seem to rescue myself
what about my bank account
and my holy desert shield
that keep me dry under that arms?
flags and mental jewelry's all I know
and they keep me happy and warm inside
so I said unto this man
"who are you and where do you come from?"
and he proceeded to tell me many things
but I said nothing at all
for the flower in the corner, by the room,
in the window, and the sun
said it all
at least they said they would
said they could
mama said they would
do me good

My favorite Mental Jewelry song :)
This is a great song and I wish Ed would write more songs like this again. The lyrics are extremely poignant statement on society and are still applicable today.

I love the floor Tom hits and rolls. I love the break and rasp in Ed’s voice. Also the simplicity of the production is a great choice for this song.

You mention specific drum elements.... Are you a drummer? Neat that you know what the sounds are made from.

Also be sure to post your own review for the song when you can. :)
