about

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."

"Train Of Thought" was co-composed by Googolplexia and Bill Michalski.

lyrics

Woke up Monday mornin' rubbed my eyes
Answering-machine message surprise
Baby said she's goin' far away
Like we said we wanted to someday

Catch her on the morning train
Just woke up without a brain
Runnin' just as fast as you can
Without a plan...

Didn't think the day would be so soon
Slept through her phone-call like a buffoon
Now I'm wearin' slippers runnin' fast
Through the crowded city, overcast

Finally had her fill of this town
Then I heard the train-whistle sound
Comin' up on her platform
Gettin' warm

Finally we got, or so I thought, to the place where we could belong,
But when, in the end, we move again, it's then I realize I'm wrong...

Conductor man, he shouted "All Aboard!"
Ticket in my hand, I'm runnin' toward
Train that's leavin' with the girl that's mine
Maybe I'll pick up the phone next time

Train pulls out and leaves me there,
And all I can do is stare,
At the train that holds the girl of my dreams,
Or so it seems...

Woke up in my bed, I found
The alarm-clock had a train-whistle sound
I roll over, turn it off to see,
She's next to me!

Googolplexia Missouri

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
