Love the vocal on Lightning. Overall great EP. We Sink is a favorite as well.
I had a farm in Africa, at the foot of the Ngong Hills.
If I know a song of Africa, of the giraffe and the African new moon lying on her back, of the plows in the fields and the sweaty faces of the coffee pickers, does Africa know a song of me?

I don't write jokes first. I write down topics. I think of what I want to talk about, and then I write the jokes - they don't write me. . . And even if you don't think it's funny, you won't think it's boring. You might disagree, but you'll listen. And maybe even laugh as you disagree.
