Christian Bush// Bush is a Christian/ didn't ya know?/ He's got that good Christian glow/ With White Christian American/ in the palm of his hand/ at his command/ causing limitless bloodshed/ in other lands/ Bush is a Christian/ didn't ya know?/ His prayers are answered/ with no corporate foes/ Enron and Exxon and he/ share the same priest/ Jesus' simplicity/ isn't part of the current beat/ But they're Christian/ We're all Christian/ We agree on that/ We're Christian/ As long as they're Christian/ I see where this is going... / Keep the church nearby/ White America abides/ proper moral killing resides/ Cause the Devil is NEVER inside/ Cause the Devil is NEVER inside/ It's over there/ It's over there/ It's over there.--Marjorie Sturm (Ernesto Diaz-Infante - vocals, acoustic steelstring guitar, 4-track cassette portastudio)

Media & Money our deMOCKracy// So absurd sad surreal/ Schwarzenegger is our governor/ where the fuck should we run for?/ Schwarzenegger is our governor/ mega-media-marketing stars get the pay-off once more/ Droned and drugged by TV celebrities/ Californians are pathetic in their warped reality/ great to see the Terminator terminated/ my very real bloodbath fantasy/ media and money, this is our democracy/ why argue? why expect integrity?/ He's got charisma, and so did Hitler/ The people have spoken.--Marjorie Sturm (Ernesto Diaz-Infante - vocals, acoustic steelstring guitar, 4-track cassette portastudio; Rent Romus - saxophone; Matt Davignon ­ turntable; Lance Grabmiller ­ laptop; Bob Marsh ­ cello, voice)

Take Yourself Seriously// I take myself seriously/ So others take me seriously/ Seriously/ Take yourself seriously/ This is serious/ Art is serious/ Life is serious/ Success is serious/ Money is serious/ Craft is serious/ Style is serious/ It's serious/ Very serious/ I'm getting to where I'm going/ I'm getting to where I'm going/ I'm almost there--Marjorie Sturm (Ernesto Diaz-Infante - vocals, acoustic steelstring guitar, 4-track cassette portastudio; Dina Emerson ­ vocals; Rent Romus - saxophone; Matt Davignon ­ turntable; Lance Grabmiller ­ laptop; Bob Marsh ­ cello, voice; Marjorie Sturm - flute)

The Routinization of Modern Life// Monday and Wednesday I teach/ Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday I go to the gym/ This is my life, my life/ Tuesday and Thursday and Friday I have band practice/ Sunday and Monday and Thursday football/ This is my life, my life--Marjorie Sturm (Ernesto Diaz-Infante - vocals, guitar, field recordings, 4-track cassette portastudio; Dina Emerson ­ backup vocals; Rent Romus - saxophone; Matt Davignon ­ turntable; Lance Grabmiller ­ laptop; Bob Marsh ­ cello, voice; Marjorie Sturm - flute)
