I wanna be with you on a little island far away from everyone I can picture us there we are smiling lying out all day in the sun Moorea X 3 All of your time X 4 Wanna swim with you through a coral garden In an ocean that's crystal blue we'll be sleepin' in a little hut together Watchin' the stars the whole night through Bora Bora All of your time X 8

Take my picture Photo-ops with ancient props Is it ruins or an amusement park? Take a picture I was never here Photo-ops with ancient props Is it ruins or an amusement park? Take a picture We were never here Remember me, remember me, in a thousand years remember me Remember me, remember me, in a thousand years I'm not a tourist I'm a wanderer Home on planet Earth I'm not a tourist I'm a wanderer I am here! Take my picture Remember me, remember me, in a thousand years remember me Remember me, remember me, in a thousand years Once what was is not enough I am here! Once what was is not enough I am here!

Catch Fade 02:52
Catch fade you're bound to get slayed when I'm practicin' my trade It's the AK with an AK Let my thoughts spray kick a wicked rhyme upside ya dome like I was Pele say say hey hey Upon my delay Procrastination is the devil gettin' his pay Every which way but loose I keep it tight I rhyme right In the limelight Up on the left coast West so save your breath Most def Just look at my sketch or smell it like a chef in the kitchen with the heat Emcees with beef can't beat my meat Catch fade Yank me to the Yankees They call me Andy Stanky But frankly, Frankie, the girl is just too skanky Enough with the hanky panky I'd rather jerk off in a hankie So you can thank me Now back in DC with my MPC and a PC I make beats real easy Armed with monkey tats and gold plated gats We'll tap that ass like a keg That's what she said Catch fade Son of anger waiting breeds danger dangerous to the ones that I love Wrath comes down on the slow and the useless Yell and scream and it does no good I wanna be good more like the Dude Roll like the river give myself there, deliver Where does it come from? When will it stop? Shoot my mouth off at the wrong cop Cop to the problems count back from ten Til it starts all over again Am I this way or did the world do this? Try to be like Jesus Feelin' like Judas Father up high Can you hear me? Callin' on the spirits of my family I need a new mantra or a tantric cleanse Used up the patience of all my friends I wanna change I really do Let the son of anger be born anew or... Catch fade

Rubbery 01:30

Am I still drunk from the last time? Is it 3:00 or am I past time? I can't feel my feet but they're still there I can't feel the pain so I don't care I don't care X 3 I don't care anymore, baby Do you care? Sittin' in my seat with the clock tic-toc'n Hands of time grab hold of my mind It's unlockin' Do not wanna do What you want me to do You gotta step aside and just let me through `cause I don't care X 3 I don't care anymore, baby Do you care? Just tryin' to live it up in these times of desperation It'll be me smokin' on these trees don't need no reason Every day it's smoke season Been down the rabbit hole walked on the yellow brick road but I never really found my way back home I've seen the purple haze looks like the sky at night in LA Can you help me put the future on hold? I don't care X 3 I don't care anymore, baby Do you care? Repeat 1st verse You know I don't care `Cause who really cares? I don't care Sometimes I care Actually, I always care But I don't care

Fuck Cancer 04:34
Why me? He never asked why me? He did what needed to be done He never complained He didn't run He stood right in front of a gun and shouted down the barrel I wanna live so give me what I'm askin' for I ain't gonna pray I ain't gonna beg Modern science will leave me for dead Fuck cancer

What Yeah 01:01
What? Yeah!
10.
I can't help second guessin' myself If I don't believe in me who will believe in me? I didn't love me but you still loved me So why isn't that enough? What happened to the power of love? I had a dream and I figured it out but I couldn't remember what the dream was about So I keep on livin' without a purpose and I keep on wonderin' if it's worth it

about

AndyK creates his most personal work since Hamburger Guitar in 2007, singing on almost every track about relationships and loss with a newfound penchant for Auto-Tune. Imagery from travel dominates the album, as do self-proclaimed "heeb-hop" beats from iMaschine, Figure, and Reason, along with melodies played on 80s synths. For an album title taken from a book about one of the last true independent record stores, it contains few vinyl samples and not a lot of scratching. AndyK only plays guitar and bass on one track each; and he only allows one guest vocal from Shaun Dawes, doing his best white 2Pac on "I Don't Care", and a brief production cameo from Page7 on "Back In `85". Otherwise, it's a true solo AndyK effort. He doesn't even rap until almost halfway through on "Catch Fade". There are brief interludes throughout that suggest a growing facility with Beastie Boys instrumental funk, but mainly he just sticks to a kind of psychedelic R&B. It's one of the first AndyK albums that strikes a consistent tone throughout and shows the artist gaining in musical maturity as he closes his second decade of recording. This year, AndyK produced and plays on EPs with Bo Deadly and MC Inferno, dropped a full-length LP with his band The Singularity, and is putting the finishing touches on albums with Red Light Fever and Fairow Tut, but still found time to push his own sound in new and unique directions. That is why he continues to be one of the most interesting and prolific independent artists working today.
