lyrics
I was selling arms to both sides. I was giving their guys high fives. I was coming out on top of it. I was on my state department shit. I was in my Balenciaga kit.
I was making love 100 nights in 100 rooms full of natural light. In the mornings I'd pace the balcony, afternoons I trained in falconry. My guys bowed their heads when they talked to me.
I was sovereign of 100 lands, had 100 albums in the can - I was playing shows in the UAE, but the blues of kings were new to me, so I turned 100 prows to the open sea,
and journeyed there for 100 years: had 100 songs poured into my ears like so much wine onto golden plates. dug 100 holes to be my grave, broke 100 bowls in 100 ways
and fixed them up with gold and glue. wore thru 100 pairs of shoes. covered in dirt & volcanic ash, met 100 warriors on the path & every last one kicked my ass.
the last of them broke my arms, left me in the furrows of a farm. a farmhand took me in his care. I worked 100 harvests there, played in bands, grew out my hair--
til the rain dried up for 100 days, then it came & washed the weeds away, and then our cows and then our coats and then our kids and then our boat so I grabbed hold of the first thing floating--
and so came back to Dubai, clutching at a neon sign. the sages asked me what i'd done and what i'd seen & I said I'd gone one town away just for fun, but now I'm back no wiser.

This is a really, really great record. Perfect accompaniment to a coffee and a candy bar. I once had a weird dream where Workbook-era Bob Mould formed a band with the Barenaked Ladies, and I think they sounded something like this. There might have also been some members from Steely Dan and XTC involved... good stuff!
