New fixed up song, its really really good.

New Monkey
Free File Hosting Made Simple - MediaFire

Here comes the sidewalk boss again
Telling me how I can’t cave in
That I’m a study in black
Need a pat on the back
I look up and smile
A picture of dissatisfaction
That he can only see as a junkie
Though I might be straight as an arrow
He’s busy shaking hands with my monkey
Busy shaking hands with my monkey
Well, I go in the car
Straight to the bar
Where my sweetie pours the beer
For the millions of fans ignoring the bands
He’s in my ear
Wants me to live in denial
Says, "You’ve got to settle for something
Though it might not be really living
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing"
No actor action man going to move in to take my place
I’ll be pumping out the product
Just a total waste
Look at your hands unoccupied
Look at the lengths you’ll go to hide
You’re under the veil
Pretending to fail
Got a whole lot of empty time left to go
Now you’ve got to fill it with something
I know what you can do, don’t you know
Anything is better than nothing
No actor action man going to move in to take my place
I’ll be pumping out the product
Just a total waste
I’m here with my cup
Afraid to look up
This is how I spend my time
Lazying around, head hanging down
Stuck inside my imagination
Busy making something from nothing
Pictures of hope and depression
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing

My favourite of his albums are probably Either/Or and his self-titled albums. They're still all very good.

Another new song

High Times
Free File Hosting Made Simple - MediaFire

Coma kid taught me how
He'd come to follow you around
Wherever you go
Said I don't go where I'm supposed to go
And I don't go really anywhere you know
Told me how he's driven by a curse
Until he kicked out into reverse
Said I don't go where I'm supposed to go
And I don't go really anywhere you know
I made up my mind and I don't mind saying so
I went to meet you at Central Square
And when I couldn't find you there
I went walking around the city some more
People watching with a cold blank stare
And I saw your face in everyone, I swear
Seems I never get your kick quite right
I was walking slow to a dirty dive
I'm so sick and tired tryin to change your mind
When it's so easy to disconnect mine
High times
High times
High times
Yeah, I feel fine
High times
High times
High times
Man, I feel fine
Don't pick me up
I'm fine right where I am
I don't go where I'm supposed to go
Where I'm supposed to go

I'll probably get that album once it comes out. I'm weird because I don't download albums before they come out.
