Gravity on Holiday

There's a lot I don't know but a few things i do
One is: from the moment you're born, your body betrays you
No one likes a nervous child who throws juice in his own face
Do you always feel like you're in the wrong place?

Gravity on holiday
Can I meet you there someday?
I think we'd get along
Dance and drink the right way
And I'd know better than to think I could stay

There's a lot I don't know but a few things i do
One is: when you're thirteen years old, your body betrays you
No one likes a frozen boy who says no while pointing yes
Is thirteen too young to be full of regret?

Gravity on holiday
Can I meet you there someday?
We don't have to speak
Words just get in the way
And I'd know better than to think I could stay

There's a lot I don't know but a few things i do
One is: while you're stuck on this earth, your body betrays you
Old man with the sunken eyes and the sad long face
In God's waiting room
I'll take your place
I'll take your…

Gravity on holiday
Can I meet you there someday?
I know you'd be kind
Wouldn't send me away
Yet I'd know better than to think I could stay
Yeah, I'd know better than to think I could stay.

about

The Bushwick Book Club Brooklyn, New York

We started in January 2009 playing songs written in response to Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions. We haven't stopped since. We've written & performed songs inspired by everything from "On The Origin of Species" to Dr. Seuss to Raymond Carver. There are BBCs popping up nationwide now. Bushwick Book Club Seattle started in 2010 & is run by Geoff Larson. Our nerdy dare-devilry knows no bounds. ... more
