Mr. Mastadon Farms

"Birds fall from the window ledge above mine." This is a line from my favorite cake song. How could anyone not like Cake. They did a cover of "I will survive" for craps sake. In the song Mr. Mastadon Farms the dude talks about how the birds falling from the window ledge and then flapping their wings at the last second is somehow linked to his need to see them flap their wings at the last second or else it means that his life would not be able to go on. He needs to see their last second flight. It is a genius song. It is weird though. Cake is like They might be Giants for cool kids. They might be giants are cool but lets face it only weirdos listen to them or own their albums (self proclaimed weirdo here.) But Cake gives you just enough weird mixed with some awesome funky shiz (small funk ensemble with 0ne trumpet) and a unique talky voice. The song is Mr. Mastadon Farms. The band is Cake. Check it. Word. (I'm a nerd)
