Pretty Girl 

Monetize your mind pretty girl                   Photo shoot so fine pretty girl                         Chandeliers disappear 2 the wine cellar floor       All the butlers mirror u Maids take care of all your games                 Drinks disappear You’ve achieved the highest score                       The world bows 2 u Afterward                 The winner’s circle awaits Pinch yourself ouch my god life is great Puzzle’s complete Since u bragged about our kiss                           Now you’re on to better things Some new bliss           Tear the curtain down pretty girl     It’s time 2 melt your flings                             Fling your soul off the nearest cliff strung with bling

Better Than God - The Frogs (04/03/1999 Euclid Tavern, Cleveland)

The recording of “Better Than God” our LP “Hopscotch Lollipop Sunday  took place at Chuck Myers home studio in Sandy, Utah. Chuck was a friend of Bjorn Thorsrud. We flew out 2 Sandy, Utah & met Chuck but this 1 time. We were due to leave 4 our flight back home Milwaukee at the end our stay & we wanted 2 squeeze this song in on tape before our departure.  As a nod 2 the “In Eden I fall” lyric, the producer in Dennis wanted a snake slithering in grass effect appearing at specific times throughout this piece, thus awakening consciousness as it climbs the vine of the spine.
