“look at that beautiful song/ lyin’ there in the sand/ busted/ hey where did that sand come from? Must’ve been with the song…”

For this song, I was thinking of the ending of a sci fi movie like Planet Of The Apes where a person encounters the ruins of a great civilization. I was thinking that has been a lot of my experience working in music. It’s so much like wandering around in a wasteland with ghostly transistors half buried in the sand, still playing an old monster hit.

lyrics

Oh look at that beautiful song
lyin’ there in the sand
hey, where did that sand come from?
must’ve come in with the song

I love this song!
Hey, you know, we built this song
this song in the sand
