A victim of collision on the open sea Nobody ever said that life was free Sank, swam, go down with the ship But use your freedom of choice I'll say it again In the land of the free Use your freedom of choice Your freedom of choice In ancient Rome there was a poem About a dog who found two bones He picked at one, he licked the other He went in circles, he dropped dead Freedom of choice Is what you got Freedom of choice Then if you got it, you don't want it Seems to be the rule of thumb Don't be tricked by what you see You got two ways to go I'll say it again In the land of the free Use your freedom of choice Freedom of choice Freedom of choice Is what you got Freedom of choice In ancient Rome there was a poem About a dog who found two bones He picked at one, he licked the other He went in circles, he dropped dead Freedom of choice Is what you got Freedom from choice Is what you want ...

Why couldn't you tell me when you came to get your things you left me standing with a hard-on in my jeans a talk show and a broken heart.

Ever 02:31
Ever live a life that's real? Full of zest, but no appeal? Ever want to cry so much... You want to die? Ever feel that you've been had? Had so much that you turn mad? Ever been so depressed that those you turn to, you bring distress? Ever sit in tormenting silence That turns so loud, you start to scream? Ever take control of a dream And play all the parts and set all the scenes? Ever do nothing and gain nothing from it? Ever feel stupid and then know that you really are? Ever think you're smart and then find out you aren't? Ever play the fool and then find out you're worse? Ever look at a flower and hate it? Ever see a couple kissing and get sickened by it? Ever wish the human race didn't exist And then realize you're one too? Well? Have You? Ever? I Have, So What!

about

Andre is the 2nd demo by The Microwave Orphans. It was recorded on July 13th 1997 at SUNY Purchase by Andre Bermudez, and released a few weeks later on Eiffel Trousers Records. It was given the release number ET011. The artwork was done by new guitarist Matt Dallow who was previously the merchandising genius behind Freaks From The Apocalypse.

Andre Bermudez and Ian Smith provided the bass tracks on this recording because the bassist at the time Ian Atchinson's mother would not let him spend the day off Long Island to record.
