| If I Had A Gun Written in late 1995 and a version was recorded during the 60 Watt sessions and meant to be released on the aborted "Southend On Sea" single. It was rerecorded in November 1996 and released on "Caught In A Trap" in early 1998. The compilation "Unreleased Tidbits & Tiblets" released also in 1998 on Manage This included a recording of the earlier 1996 version though am unclear if this a 60 Watt demo or from another recording session altogether. It was first performed in Seattle in April 1996 and was performed solo & with a band until the summer of 1998 whereby it has not been performed since. |
| Playground by a cliff long drop to the sea
a little space ride spins you around and around I told you to stop but you wouldn't stop for me eyes never leave the ground never leave the ground Hate and pain turn us into familiar shadows where you could be anyone and I could be anyone do you stand with God's finest laughing in the gallows abandoned in the wind and the sun If I had a gun I know what I would do I would seal my fate seal my fate with you Little space ride begins to crap out and fall through an atmosphere that's weak and unreal I told you to stop but you wouldn't stop for me now I don't even try I don't even feel If I had a gun I know what I would do I would seal my fate seal my fate with you Blind deaf and mostly dumb can't chase away and I can't outrun it doesn't matter how I seek my peace nothing separates me from the beast If I had a gun if I had a gun if I had a gun I would give you your freedom |
