The Mountain Goats / Masher
most of the brine has got to boil away
most of the air has got to choke you
most of june i spent in jail again
i don’t mean jail exactly
up in the pine tree
a red squirrel looked down at me
i am losing control of the language again
i am losing control of the language again
most of the things i used to hold on to
most of the things i used to say to you
most of the ways i knew around the local roads
are disappearing daily
high in the cottonwood
you were looking down at me and you sure looked good
your hair hanging down in the leaves
your neck tilted back to make a rainbow
i was losing control of the language again
i am losing control of the language again

The Mountain Goats - Soft Targets
“This is on a 7”, a split 7” with John Vanderslice, which is already sold out and I don’t have any copies to sell to you, so I’m sorry about that, alright… Anyway, it’s a love song, after a manner of speaking, it’s called… well, here’s the thing… in, you know, the US military has this way of coming up with nice ways of describing bad things, so, you have “hard targets,” that’s buildings, and military installations, and streets, right? And then you have “soft targets”…and that’s PEOPLE, right? This song is called soft targets…” —John Darnielle, 2003
John Darnielle - Get Your Mom Some Pie for Hanukkah
I don’t know what this song is (the album field is tagged “Goblins: Ha Ha Hanukkah” and I don’t think it’s technically a Mountain Goats song), but it exists. And it’s Hanukkah. And even though neither I nor John Darnielle is Jewish, I guess if there was ever going to be a remotely appropriate time to post this, it’s probably now?
