Includes bonus tracks not available on BandCamp! Wow! 18 Tracks total. Googolplexia himself hand-wrapped each of these in the artwork, and hand-numbered each (CDs AND artwork) with a magic marker. And by "magic marker," I do mean a marker with actual MAGIC within, not just a felt-tip permanent marker or anything. So basically, you're buying MAGIC. How many items of BandCamp merchandise can truthfully claim the same?
Includes unlimited streaming of "O" Before "L," And Only One "E"
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
Originally there was a (LONG pre-BandCamp) digital release called "Live In The Studio" that featured these seven tracks, recorded with the full band, all playin' together at the time of recording. They are presented here as BONUS tracks for this digital release of "O" BEFORE "L," AND ONLY ONE "E."
lyrics
Hittin' the snooze, on a Thursday morning
Nothin' to lose, on a Thursday morning
Well I think it would do me some good if I just
got to sleep for a mere five minutes more
And what could it hurt? After all I only got one
and a half hours of sleep the night before
So I'll sleep in just a little bit later
on a Thursday morning
Finally get up, on that Thursday morning
It's three hours later, but still Thursday morning
Well what have I done? I missed school, I missed work
and whatever else that I had to do
What a worthless waste of the perfect time
to accomplish all that extra stuff, too
And if nothing else, I coulda grabbed a clean slate
and begun something totally new
At a time of the week about which there's nothing special
on a Thursday morning
(SOLO)
Well I've heard "Monday, Monday, you can't trust that day"
And sometimes it's Manic, too
Tuesday Afternoon, you know it's Moody and Blue
And Friday, I'm in love with you
Saturday night, and I ain't got nobody, at the movies
who cares what picture ya see?
It's all right for a fight, and as lonesome as the sound
Of Sunday morning comin' down
I'll sleep when I'm dead, not on Thursday morning
Just resting my head, this time on Thursday morning
Well what else to do at the one part of the week
about which nobody else has written a song?
It can't be important, if nothin' goes right,
but then again, that means nothin' goes wrong
It's not early enough in the week to give you an excuse,
but sleep is still the best thing you've ever tasted
And it's not late enough in the week to give you an excuse,
but somehow last night you still managed to get wasted
Oh, it's the start of a "nothing" day
On a Thursday morning
...A Thursday morning
...A Thursday morning
...A Thursday morning

With his electric banjo and ukulele, accordion and trombone kazoo, Robert Severson has crafted Saint Louis, Missouri's
Googolplexia into a one-man outsider vaudeville. Severson stomps, claps, and gurgles into the disparate, cobwebbed corners of American music and sometimes beyond. Expect screwball theatrics at their most hand-embroidered....more
The newest and best Dubb Nubb record. It makes me proud to know them and be their best friend, tour buddy, biggest fan, and split EP co-contributor. We must tour together again one day. Googolplexia
This album is a perfectly eclectic blend of righteous tunes. Coolzey is one of my favorite artists on the road today. Such a swell, handsome guy, too! Googolplexia
A nostalgic record full of ambling rhythms, vivid imagery, and cotton-soft melodies tapped out on an ever-present ’70s synth-organ hybrid. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 11, 2021
The latest from Earth Girl Helen Brown swings from spritely synthpop to smoky interstellar groovers to far-out lounge. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 23, 2018
