LIFE DURING TEAMTIME

Car full of tube amps
Mac full of SoundTools
Packed up and ready to roll

Heard of some sessions
In Tallahassee
A place where nobody knows

We meet in secret
Come from all over
We bring our tapes and our toys

We hide in basements
We fear the sunlight
We live on pizza and noise


CHORUS:
This ain't no party
This ain't no disco
This ain't no Kylie Minogue

There ain't no networks
There ain't no MIDI
I ain't got time for that now...



What about Dayton?
What about Amherst?
What about Pittsburgh PA?

You better watch those
Resonant filters
Don't want to blow the PA

We play some techno
We play like Brubeck
We don't blend into the crowd

We sample Torgo
We sample Stimpy
We know that THAT ain't allowed


CHORUS:
Why flame on USENET?
Why post to SYNTH-L?
I ain't got time for that now...

This ain't no Kraftwerk
No Sound of London
Everything's different somehow...



We work with beat clocks
We work with triggers
We know what CVs are worth

We've got sequencers
Analog patchcords
Rat Enhancers and Smurfs

We're stringing cables
We're loading soundfiles
Our friends all think we're insane

We changed the titles
Of so many songs now
We'll never pick a good name


CHORUS:
This ain't no party
This ain't no disco
This ain't no Kylie Minogue

No Analog Heaven
Or rec.music.makers
I ain't got time for that now....



I need my bagels
My Dr. Pepper
I need my vocoder mic

I've played so much stuff
In so many styles now
I don't know what I sound like

(begin fade)

We've got computers
We're laying down tracks
We put together a Team

Don't get exhausted
I'll do some backups
You ought to get you some sleep

Unplugged my Time Piece
What good's a Time Piece?
It won't get nothing done

I'm bathed in sweat now
My ears are ringing
Now this is what I call fun.....

(fade out)
