What are the new songs about?

The Squeaky train rumbles forward. Songs are carefully shaped and crafted, and sometimes completely forgotten. But what are they about? Usually a hard question. Not so hard for these.

Rocky Records: Ruminations on failed relationships as viewed through the lense of Archaelogy/Paleontology.
Difference Engine:
Ruminations on mathematics and accounting, as viewed through the lense of a historic precursor to the computer. See this link for more: Difference Engine.






Transplant:
Ruminations on the JFK assasination, as viewed through the lense of personal failure.
Constellation: Ruminations on fatherhood, as viewed through the lense of astronomy.
Centrifuge: Ruminations on the breakup of a band, as viewed through the lense of air travel.

Stay tuned.


Wow that's alot of Ruminations!

Went to wikipedia site and read all about
difference engines, christ! i'm glad the song is not that difficult to understand.
I read the whole thing and the only thing i got from it is that the guys name rhymes with cabbage. Harry you totally need to add him into the song somehow.
Thanks for the explanations of the new songs,
however every song you have evr written has been ruminations on some thought viewed through some lense or another.
When are you going to write a song just about
you. You know like you're walking down the street one day and you see something on the ground, or you're reading the newspaper, or
you remeber something that someone said to you long ago and it made you feel something deep down inside your soul.
Come on that would be cool!
