lyrics

Is it my conditioning that I keep consuming more
Scour the record store like a fiend from artists A-Z
& checking the pressings for original release
Buy new & used titles & trade Cassettes & Vinyl for free
Cause ribbon & grooves are the art of impermanency

& I am an addict for rectangles of plastic
I'll give you my last cent cause it's my replacement
For being wasted screaming on the kitchen floor
& I am addicted to limited addition
Color vinyl reissues with gate folded inserts
With my money gone I can't get spun anymore

Thinking back on all the tracks
On every mix I wasted on you
As you use
Discographies & histories to try & get into his jeans
But every measure of your lecture came straight from me
The tracking force isn't the source of why you're on repeat
& grinding me down just like an old slip sheet

& I am an addict for rectangles of plastic
I'll give you my last cent cause it's my replacement
For being wasted screaming on the kitchen floor
& I am addicted to limited addition
Color vinyl reissues with gate folded inserts
With my money gone I can't get spun anymore

& I'm not sure if this obsessive collection
Is a good investment as my will & testament
Or a waste of time
Like crashing stock as closing bell chimes
A witching hour trade as their cutting the lathe
