lyrics

even my kinfolk caught the syndrome
time dwindles, it’s that simple
read the signal, see the swindle
see the cycle turn like twelve inch vinyl single
treat a ceiling like a glass window
put it on smash like a crash symbol
and let what’s broke hit the ground
everybody get down

so get it, go get it
it’s all there for you no kidding
get it, go get it
if you want it don’t waste those minutes
get it, live it, until it’s finished
go get it ain’t nothing infinite
time keeps ticking and
the world keeps spinning
tomorrow ain’t promised
today’s just a visit

hey you, looking like you’re way past due
don’t let the days pass you
dedicate, make your way through that zoo
and the path you take got to pave that too
hey you, there’s those who want and those who do
push it until the screws come loose
got to draw that line, stand up high, pursue
and the end of your life how the time just flew

sounds like the message held true
too much and ain’t no Midas touch, so what it do?
I don’t believe in luck
I’m digging for fire until my time is up
how about you?
got to take that old and make that new
be that pin, push that round
go for yours there ain’t no time like now
everybody get down

so get it, go get it
it’s all there for you no kidding
get it, go get it
if you want it don’t waste those minutes
get it, live it, until it’s finished
go get it ain’t nothing infinite
time keeps ticking and
the world keeps spinning
tomorrow ain’t promised
today’s just a visit

hey you, looking like you’re way past due
don’t let the days pass you
be that pin, push that round, make that sound
everybody get down
before your time runs out
come on now, come on now
dig it up, hands in the ground
everybody get down

about

Sims Minneapolis, Minnesota

Life and loss and dance parties. Sex and love and fractal math. Sims wrote More Than Ever last winter in the wake of some personally trying times: death and sickness in his immediate circle of friends and family. And he decided that the only acceptable answer to big loss is big joy—urgent, defiant, unapologetic joy. ... more
