The refrain of this song ("I'm down in a hole...") has to be one of Trevor's greatest songwriting achievements. He builds up the tension to it so well and releases it perfectly. If only the song went into the refrain more than once...

Wed, 13 Jan 2010 12:25:04 -0500

sugapablo, I think it is just a note run rather than a chord run. It is the first 4 notes of the A scale. You could play the chords A Bm C#m D, but it probably sounds better just playing the notes A B C# D instead.

The title implies ownership by the Sea Monkeys although the object of ownership is not mentioned. The A B E A F#m is all pretty straightforward, but I sure wish I had the time and the skill to tab out the middle-end where it becomes much more complex than IV-V-I-ii

Comment on Jezebel by Josh

Wed, 29 Jul 2009 21:34:51 -0400

In a Forum post in 2005, Flipper (aka Bip alias Josh Clark) wrote about the origins of Jezebel: Actually it began with a picture that my friend Josh drew. It was called "Jacobs Garden", from there many creatures emerged. The antagonist who has yet to reveal himself goes by the name of "qwali" and he quards a fountain which is a port hole to other such vagaries. In fact there was a song probably played live once or twice back in 1998 called "gwalis fountain", not to be confused with "Jezebel" who resides at the wishing well. Hope that's confusing enough for you.-Bip ;)

I interpret the line referring to "killing" and "style" in the manner that style was destroyed with the moral life lead, it was to a virtue to her personally, while other veiwed her in the physical sense of the word style.

I'm pretty sure its the roses are growing on the hound dogs bounds not a hound dog is growing on the hound dogs bonesAlso I believe for the first time during the april steve tour 2008 and every now and then they have down a kind of acapella chorus at the end.  During that steve tour they also changed the key this song was in.


Comment on Orestes by joeyf_kms
Mon, 18 May 2009 18:47:22 -0400
What a beautiful song.I was looking up Orestes and I had always associated it with the Greek mythology, but it never really fit with the song.I think a much better fit would be Orestes, Indiana a small town in rural Indiana."Dreams of OrestesBring it down, rebuild,but theres miles of silosof missiles waiting to spillinto the skyWe all fadecollapse, and decayand were taken awayat the end of the day"Also the fact that it fits in segue with Crop Duster makes me think its about a small farm town not a Greek myth.Would be a great CBB song in Baltimore.Any thoughts on your interpretation?

On 11/7/04, Trevor announces the song saying that he wrote it in Death Valley.  Awesome place to go with these words.

Favorite Trev song, but one lyrical correction It's:"My friends are always on the right** side"

You screamThey dont like usit is not that, it isIt's clear They don't like usAlso, this whole verse is messed up:Lets go to RenoBefore the solsticeMy cousins got a farmAnd Im from thereI hear the states building a prison next doorAnd they wont find much more.It is:Let's go to RenoBefore it snows thereMy cousin's got a farmAn Hour awayI hear the state's building a prison right next doorAnd they wont farm there much more(See how he mentioned his cousins farm prior) makes much more sense
