Liner Notes

I was humming this line when I got up in the middle of the night last night so naturally it has turned into a song. The cat in the dryer idea came from a high school classmate, recently passed on, who came up with a commercial parody for laundry detergent. This is my first song in an open tuning (DADGAD).

Lyrics

I was walking to the bathroom in the middle of the night I didn’t turn the light on And I turned to the right I walked into the hall closet looking for the sink It had to be in there somewhere…I think

People do weird things when they are high Take a couple gummies and you will see why Feeling kind of mellow You don’t look where you’re going People do weird things when they are high

I was in the laundry room, clothes were set to dry Cleaned out the lint screen Temp was set on high At the last possible minute, I threw in my cat Coming in from the outside cold I thought they would like that

People do weird things when they are high Take a couple gummies , you’ll see why The cat started to scream, I put the wash on pause Its fur was dry, hot to the touch, right down to the paws I didn’t have an alibi People do weird things when they are high

Love the sound you got from open D. Sounds very cool. The extra sounds are pretty and trippy, which certainly fits the lyrics.

So strange and wonderful! Nice, trippy guitar and additional instrumentation. You sure capture the vibe of the title. Good to hear you again!

This is cool! The DADGAD suits you- it's an added dimension I haven't heard from you!

Love the guitar playing, the weird sounds and strings on top of it make it very surreal! I'm glad no cats were hurt in the making of this song!
