come and taste the sweet away from home
out on your own
good and bad will come
how can a good man find what he wants
amidst the wicked and the dumb
lo and behold
he must help himself
opulent world where options are endless
signal to noise
the ratio
got to sift through the mud
to get to the gold
oh signal to noise
newspapers and magazines and such
fine little-known
little landscapes of
people and places
here and abroad
are buried by the weight of such
quick irony
everywhere i see
pictures of faces
numbers of thumbs
signal to noise
the ratio
got to sift through the mud
to get to the gold
oh signal to noise
fiber-optic blood veins
subterranean pulse
a central nervous system
beneath the soil
dvd's and cat food anyplace anytime
behold the end result of evolution's grind
call it what you want to
open access and such
hard to tell if its strength in the margins
or a top-down, meta lie to sell us stuff
signal to noise
the ratio
got to sift through the mud
to get to the gold
oh signal to noise
