about

I wrote the main riff of this song while in the tour van with Skin Yard, somewhere in the midwest in 1991, humming it into a portable cassette recorder. The lyrics were written in 1992, with a particular person in mind. This is an eight-track recording from my basement. Recorded with Pat and Barrett from Skin Yard.

lyrics

Who's prone to take the lead
You're not built for any speed
No one knows what size you need

Got food upon the table
Your life's become a fable
Got jars without a label... yeah

Got lost along the way
No time for you to play
Not sure just what to say

Those people telling lies
Really comes as no surprise
Let's cut them down to size

Who knows just what is true
And not only what is new
You've got better things to do

Now over on the edge
It don't matter what you've said
Some people think you're dead

It's all become an act
Imperative of tact
The only horse you backed

(Choruses:)

It's only just an act, now over said and done
The only horse you backed, just following the sun
All over but the act, the rest is said and done
Your bag's already packed, just following the sun
