about

I wrote the lyrics to this song while in the midst of recording the sixth Paritroop album with Quentin Lundy. I thought it may have been part of that album, but it didn't, because I forgot the lyric sheet the night we recorded it. So it ended up here. The original first track of Dish Washer was actually a different song that ended up on Rarespray. This one took over.

lyrics

Whisker mountain…
Grandpa sips the orange soda
The word kleb ain’t in the dictionary
Jarvis Phelps always wanted to
Become a calculator so he went to grooming school
Computer programming for dogs
Hey I think you put too much starch on your ice cream
Get out of my bathroom and stop brushing your teeth
With the baking soda
Flood up the drums with the cheese donuts and
Duct tape a hamster to the bacon container
Police sunshine
Police sunshine
Police sunshine
Police sunshine
Whisker
Whisker
Whisker
Whisker
