The music for this piece was originally called "Chris Loses His Friends". I recorded it back in early 1993 at Sonic Underground Studios. Nick DiMauro and I had recently split from Modern Voices Recording Studio to help build the Stony Brook one. Chris Pati was very much on my mind.

lyrics

IN THE LAND OF WASSELETTE

In the land of Wasselette there was a lonely highway. And on that highway lay a tiny giant. And above the highway were haunted milk stained curtains. So milk stained that no child raised to grow his own telescope could penetrate it’s curtainology.

But one afternoon the tiny giant awoke from a sudden slumber and as he yawned into the sky his foul breath parted the haunted milk stained curtains and shards of Tiffany colored glass fell upon him. He continued to look upwards towards the sky even though his punctured skin began to bleed on to the highway. Alas, all he could see now was a thick layer of dull empty darkness peeking behind the curtains. And this made his soul cry. With confirmed resignation the tiny giant aligned himself with the north breeze and proceeded to hip-hop down the lonely highway to his eventual grave-site which was already in progress.
