lyrics

A powerful sound - your face goes numb
A spike through the sound - your head struck dumb
A tone full of full - your mind speaks time
A laugh and a life - you find your rhyme

All for the sake of sound
Down to the lake of sound
All for the sake of sound

A bus to a bus to a bus to a bore
Your head goes dead - a man says “more”
An hour plus an hour equals overtime
Bell end hell - you find your rhyme

All for the sake of sound
Drown in the lake of sound
All for the sake of sound

Did you tear it all up? Someone said you tore it all up.
The brain holds the brain - the spike brains the pine
We laugh down the lane - we found our rhyme

All for the sake of sound
Drown in the lake of sound
All for the sake of sound

All for the sake of sound
Drown in the lake of sound
All for the sake of sound

Down to the lake of sound

I have been a huge fan of the great MIKE KENEALLY for many years. He is such a brilliant talent! I’m really really enjoying the latest MFTJ album a great deal. “What Wally Thinks” and “I Remember When Candy Bars Were A Nickel” respectively are a perfect one-two punch to open up an album! I’ll be enjoying this one for a long long time!! Danny Cavazzi

This recording makes a great workout companion! All tracks exercise my mind while I'm power walking the hills where I live in Massachusetts. Keeps the feet moving for my daily 3 miles. Thank you MFTJ and all Keneally music. rondidonato
