In Every Lake a Monster 02:32

In every lake a monster Every night they follow you down While everyone's watching TV Slimy sucking steps, you can hear the sound The hollowed-out centres of cities of ice In the hollowed-out centres of cities of ice It sleeps in Burley Griffin Ginninderra has one too The South is not neglected In Tuggeranong it's watching you The hollowed-out centres of cities of ice In the hollowed-out centres of cities of ice In every lake a monster Every night they follow you down While everyone's watching TV Slimy sucking steps, you can hear the sound

Stone Spacecraft 03:08
lyrics

Smoke the bones of the astronaut gods Bring a revolution to the people of the swamp Beneath the pyramids and moons they are talking of love You hear them talking all around the world In the moment of destiny their plans are unfurled Hear them speak ancient tongues beneath the new-born sun And if it's all the same to you I've got a job to do Join a stone spacecraft And its midnight crew Taking downers in Hackett 'Cause you couldn't hack it in Downer Wondering what's on in Dickson While they're getting their dicks in in Watson Spirits like smoke through your graveyard teeth White clay facepaint out in the street I've got lost time and I know you're the thief And if it's all the same to you I've got a job to do Join a stone spacecraft And its midnight crew Taking downers in Hackett 'Cause you couldn't hack it in Downer Wondering what's on in Dickson While they're getting their dicks in in Watson

Poor Bird 02:30

Poor bird Picking at a crust Poor bird Picking at a crust Too scared to enjoy it Too hungry to live in distrust When I first met you, Lord, I was so in need When I first met you, Lord, I was so in need You were like an open book I did not know how to read Let it bleed Like blood from a stone Let it bleed Like blood from a stone I've had enough of this party, Lord, I'm goin' home

I am Figure She is Ground Laid out before me Like a burial mound The smell of wet dirt As I plow her earth With my iron tool So there's no fairies around We are the Flex Farmers We cultivate our time We're working on our credit With one eye on Reddit It was a major fuckup It was badly scoped An Access database Was never gonna cope The FAS might lose face Cue death-march in rose-specs But that's OK It was great for my flex We are the Flex Farmers We cultivate our time We're working on our credit With one eye on Reddit Well baby, don't you know that it's all the same Just gonna record my time right here, right against my name (howls madly) We are the Flex Farmers We cultivate our time We're working on our credit With one eye on Reddit We are the Flex Farmers We cultivate our time We're working on our credit With one eye on Reddit

Ainsley Reed & The Rat Runners Canberra, Australia

Ainsley Reed and The Rat Runners have been putting the 'intergenerational' into pseudonymous genteel artistic poverty for a couple of years now. They earnestly hope you enjoy their over-written and under-rehearsed hyphen-pop nuggets.
