lyrics
laura 81483... hi, do you remember me?
laura 81483... we've been buddies for an eternity.
sometimes i wonder... how's it goin 81483?
laura 81483... you say you love the surf and sea.
you say you love the east coast scene and the boundless possibilities.
sometimes i wonder... how's it goin 81483?
laura 81483... would you say tommy, or anthony?
is your first love beer or hockey? or maybe jumping from a bungee?
sometimes i wonder... how's it goin 81483?
i can't remember when or why i got the info from your profile.
musta been somethin that i missed, but laura you're on my list.
laura 81483... you never say hello to me!
are you really all you claim to be?!?
laura 81483... would we enjoy each other's company?
if i ever got to meet ya, maybe i could treat ya to a cup of tea...

late ‘02 or early ‘03. if you don’t know the story behind this song, ask us sometime. yes, laura is a real person who we actually did meet in fall ‘06. played the song for her live in a random new york diner at 5am (check youtube). the weird sound was made by tapping an empty rockstar can with a pen and applying a modulation effect. nyck’s tracks recorded in his parents’ basement. everything else recorded at winterhaven in the endroom & daryn’s bedroom: drumloop/guitar/tambourine may ‘06, bass july ‘06.
