Fully Retractable

Soul Coughing was an American alternative rock band. Based in New York City, the band found modest mainstream success during the mid-to-late 1990s. Soul Coughing developed a devout fanbase and have garnered largely positive response from critics. Steve Huey in Allmusic describes the band as "one of the most unusual cult bands of the 1990s ... driven by frontman Mike Doughty's stream-of-consciousness poetry, Soul Coughing's sound was a willfully idiosyncratic mix of improvisational jazz grooves, oddball samples, hip-hop, electronics, and noisy experimentalism (described by Doughty as 'deep slacker jazz')." more »

Shooed out like a housefly 
This house was half my mind 
I don't dispute the doubts you've outlined 
But it's my right to waste your time 
And these things 
It stands to reason 
These things won't kill me 
Your feelings 
The spattering 
It bores me 
Don't tell me 
Burned in on the 8th of May 
She was spectacular 
I walk a half-moon by the bus stop 
Sliding 'cross the street to her 
Three stings 
Sequentially 
Three strings 
Won't kill me 
Your spieling 
Gracelessly 
Is my grief 
Please tell me 
Half-masted, bass-boosted, slingbacked, fully retractable 
Throw out the la-la by the busload 
Match the photo to the description 
I do indeed and shall continue 
Dispatch the shiftless man to points beyond
