I say "My Interpretation" because some of the words are guesses and some words I couldn't even understand; someone else may have totally different ideas of what Jandek's singing! Cut, paste & load from browser to get rid of html code. Somebody e-mailed me the other day asking me to send Jandek sound files. I don't have the hard/software to do so. Mabye you could add song excerpts to your webpage?Thanks!

Feathered Drums A HREF="discog.html#0740">Six and Six (1/1)
Thanks for all the thoughts
Came rolling in on feathered drums
I've been in jail before
Been lead out to...
Oh I am sure of where I am
Clouds came floating by
Had to hide somethin'
It's what I'd done
??? this what ??? I feel
Oh universe, oh beyond everything to never end
Oh back, oh wheel and tumble
Morning sights and streets of wheat
Oh fanciful and teeming waves
Oh universe and all the days

Point Judith Six and Six (1/2)
??? falling broken ???
I feel a full shadow
I see a ??? digging
Snails on the rocks and it's low tide and...
There's diamonds in the ocean
But if there's a moth winging out over the waves
In the sunlight there's
Two spiders meet on a rock but
They're the same anyhow so...
It's all so still here I...
Little waves spill over little rocks
You can ????? from the rocks
As it shines like smooooooooth ?????
But you know there's more than this
'Cause you can see the boats sailing
And the gulls fly by fishing
and there's a lighthouse in the distance, but...
It's all so quiet that..
Why disturb the silence so
Go away in the moonlight and
Bring back a starfish
Settle back easy and
Make up your mind to stay
I've earned a fortune and
There's not much more to say
I'm livin' easy
Smooth the silky days
I see that you're here but
Haven't changed your ways
Settle back easy and
Make up your mind to stay
(Bangs into microphone)
The country's cleaner and
I've earned a fortune and
You don't have to pay
Just settle back easy and
Make up your mind to stay

I Knew You Would Leave Six and Six (1/3)
The rocks come out
Unto dust they die
Once hard, stuff of mountains
Now soft powder among the sand
Who dares crush a rock?
Oh rock, no rock
Reduced to the winds
Scatter your parts
You are not one but many
To those shall you succumb

Beast of time, you hurl your heavens sporadic
Falling in the great parade
March unto your death
And into what arms will you go
Surely not your own
Oh God, oh God, be you my hope
And all else ruffles in the winds
Magic carpets fly to your planets
You have no place on earth
Who is it creates the sand soliloquy
Is it everyone, makes you are ?????
???? words of pretense
Oh Lord let my hand be guided
Sometimes I know it not
As the air, no air is still
And the weary sounds refrain
Never hiding a cackle
You clutch upon my heart bleeding

And now you are gone
Where you hear it all
Wide awake from a long sleep
Myself on my hands
Tomorrow in the gallows
Trees in skies
Empty ???? replenished
By the hand of one who would fall down
And make a light to shine somewhere
What is this
The cavalcade of misery
What depths
How could we think of distances
Ah, it is the gift of man
To live, the days long
The nights longer
Journey to the stars
They worship the sun
Come down treasures
And I like to see a smile
on your lips as we meet
on a journey to the stars

Can I See Your Clock Six and Six (1/4)
Now ?????? from this mornin' came to me
The piper in his high clouds came to me
Listen, oh my brother, it's time to rise
?????? heaven in the sky
We what I ?????
What you do with you, what you do with you
Have I ??????
It's playin' on a phonograph
Now listen gently to the call
Riding on the waves that fall
And rise to reach the sun and you
You're living in a moon so blue

Wild Strawberries Six and Six (2/1)
?????? the dozens
?????? the walls
???? stop and see
Walkin' down the hall
I'm wondering where
The murdering town
I'm beating a hundred
From way down below
There's a place you could call me
Out in Ohio
You're down in the numbers
You're listed forty-five
You heard and you answered
"I'm not dead I'm alive"
You'll walk on a tightrope
Wear the suit of a clown
You rear back in anger
Don't forget there's no answer
Watch your feet and where they're goin'
Don't forget your dancin'

Forgive Me Six and Six (2/2)
You know evil, know it well
The tree gave up it's fruit at once
Ah! My hand it burns
Scarred with these prints
They believe when I die, that is a fact
The blood will drain
Infection will mix with the blue corpse
But you have it here
You see how it is like the wind
At your back and at your face
Please try or aching branches creak
You walk alone down boulevards
I take you to the sky
Take you to the sky
Take you to the sky
Take you to the sky

Hilltop Serenade Part 2 Six and Six (2/4)
Well your brain is weary and your manners rough
Well O.K. but that's enough
Crazy lights, crazy fights
????? on the way hey
Walk along, sing a song and pray
Mr. Genry on the label
Paint a picture of a fable
On a label a fable Mr. Genry

Well your brain is weary and your manners rough
Well O.K. but that's enough
Crazy lights, crazy fights
????? on the way hey
Walk along, sing a song and pray
Mr. Genry on the label
Paint a picture of a fable
On a label a fable Mr. Genry

You're The Best One Six and Six (2/5)
You're the best one that I came to see
You're the last one that I want to see
You're one in a million, Lord I think I forgot to come
You're the top of the mountain, the rest is on the way down
You know I think I could tell you
I think you ought to know
There was somebody new before you
With you I learned to know them all
And all that came before them
And all that go here from them
You go with them gently
With love on your mind

Delinquent Words Six and Six (2/6)
I always had a bloody lip, always
Those Cadillacs just float over the road
They don't even know the road is there
How is it they know me well in the wine store
There is no question of it
It's the blank eyed and boxed face that don't understand
Age makes no difference
Shape makes no difference
I observe that all collects dust here as everywhere
The most whited things fade emerged to no car
Dust enters into all being
And man who came from dust, to dust shall he return

Thanks!! They're up on the website now. Note that there's a lot of future album titles in the lyrics ("Six and Six" was Jandek's second album): "Living in a Moon So Blue", "Blue Corpse", and "You Walk Alone" all take their titles from this record. There's also a song that while it doesn't actually contain the words "The Rocks Crumble" has a whole verse about crumbling rocks. The words to "I Knew You Would Leave" are particularly overwrought. Very nice. "Forgive Me" is one of Jandek's scariest songs; I love when the vocals come in at the beginning, behind one-chord music and some major tape hiss: "You know evil, know it well..."
