lyrics

The boot is on the other foot,
guiding us up the garden path,
compressing volume and mass,
leading us further on from the past.

Spectres of transient peaks abound,
laying structures into air and ground.

The boot is on the other foot,
guiding us up the garden path.
A crude gain hovers on top,
leading us up with hisses and pops.

Remnants of phantom powers abound,
arcing current into air and ground.

I rode the fader because you were getting lost.
I pulled back kick and snare and bass ‘til I heard you.
I’m spending seasons searching, trying to locate you!
And now you’re backing off and you aren’t coming through!

I showed you how it’s really got to come from here,
and hit the diaphragm plosive and sincere.
You keep retreating and I’m trying to locate you!
I’ve hit the ceiling seeking, trying to locate you!

I’ve hit the ceiling and I’m trying to locate you!
I’ve hit the ceiling searching, trying to locate you!
[The boot is on the other foot!]
I’ve hit the ceiling seeking, trying to locate you!
I’ve hit the ceiling and I’m trying to locate you!
[The boot is on the other foot!]

The boot is on the other foot…
