about

You know what they are, my friend. You've seen them too.

lyrics

Sometimes
I wake up in the middle of the night
With the TV set still on
Static sounds like pounding surf
But then the dream is gone
The only sand here trickles through an hourglass while I sleep
'Til I'm up with the dawn again
And on my way to work I see


Interstate, guard rail, concrete, rusty nail
Smokestack, steel mill, train track, landfill
Street light, road sign, high tension power line
Dive bar, pay phone, junkyard, traffic cone

In my dreams the air is clean
The beach is crystal white
But this ain't no dream (this is reality!)
This ain't no dream

I find
I spend my time staring at the clock
Waiting for the stroke of five
No walls, no work, just ancient cities
Rising in my mind
But there are no ruins waiting outside the office door
Just all the same damn things
I saw the day before

And you know what they are
'Cause you've seen 'em, too
(I'm talking about)

Billboard, blacktop, speed-trap, traffic cop
Hotel, motel, all-night truck stop
Broken glass, blown tire, brown grass, trash fire
Chain link, barbed wire, high rise getting higher

In my dreams the grass is green and
I can see the stars at night

In my dreams everything seems like
One day it'll be all right

about

drunkdude69 Cleveland, Ohio

DD69 music has been described as “a rip through a well-stocked jukebox, with smooth funk that would have been at home on a turntable three decades ago mixing with a contemporary guitar-heavy party vibe that could have been recorded two weeks ago.”

The music has drawn comparisons to classic artists like Stevie Wonder and Frank Zappa, as well as contemporary bands like Sublime and 311.
