Robertus' Song of the Week

My mind is logical, can often see through
what first may seem true, and it don’t believe you.
But my body, it trusts you, for my body’s insane
But my body’s often more powerful than my brain.
Oh my voice is a-rising, it won’t let me rest
My mind it screams no but my body says yes

My mind perceives boundaries it tries to defend
My body, it just wants to feel good again
My mind sees problems that need to be solved
My body prefers when my mind’s not involved
Oh my voice is a-rising, it won’t let me rest
My mind it screams no but my body says yes

My body wants pleasure, my mind it seeks joy
My mind treasures, my body toys.
Now they’re split down the middle, neither there nor here
Though all of me wants this pain to disappear
Oh my voice is a-rising, it won’t let me rest
My mind it screams no but my body says yes

My voice is a-rising, it won’t let me rest
My mind it screams no but my body says yes



This week's Song of the Week is "Mind it Says No" by Steve Hefter and Friends of Friends. Heard this one on WTMD whilst returning from my homeboy's pool on Saturday afternoon. The band isn't signed, but they're generating some pretty good buzz down here in Harm City. The link in the song goes to their Myspace page (hooray lax internet policiing at work!). Therein, I heartily recommend “Ludicrous Bubblegum Flavors," though I’m entirely too lazy/busy to transcribe it here. Enjoy!
