Pulling the Veil Pull back the veil That's driving you blind Reveal the pieces That you didn't want to find I didn't come here I'm not leaving You're not on my mind It's a sorry situation Traveling back in time Come off the rails You keep walking a line Janus facing up ahead And back at the same time I didn't come here I'm not leaving You're not on my mind It's a sorry situation Traveling back in time The veil's concealing Unwanted feelings This machine is peeling back the time Clocks all fail Gears all grind The ground is splintered And the figures left behind I didn't come here I'm not leaving You're not on my mind It's a sorry situation Traveling back in time The veil's concealing Unwanted feelings This machine is peeling back the time The veil's revealing Unwanted feelings This machine is peeling back the time I didn't come here I'm not leaving Didn't come here I'm not leaving and You're not on my mind

Granted Somebody's gonna take you all for granted Somebody's gonna take you down And just when you think you can't stand it I'll be around You know you're gonna make it Surround Yeah you know you're gonna make it Surround Somebody's gonna take you all for granted Somebody's gonna wear your crown And just when you think you can't stand it I'll be around I know you're gonna make it Surround Yeah you're gonna have to make it Surround Somebody's gonna take you all for granted Somebody's gonna bring you down And just when you think you can't stand it I'll be around I know you're gonna make it I surround I know you're gonna make it Surround I surround And I know you're gonna make it I'll surround

Under Pavement Sitting in the road Counting up the bleaching bones Listening to the pavement Buckle on your heavy load Looking for a vanishing point Somewhere at the edge of your sight Everything you know is going Under the knife I'm gonna get Just what I always wanted Have to admit I'm feeling a little bit haunted Cactus in the cold Blooming on the moonlight glow Underneath the pavement Roots are spreading out And they grow Looking for a place to entwine Sending signals spine to spine Everything they know Sun sand and sky I'm gonna get Just what I always wanted Have to admit That I'm feeling a little bit haunted Looking down the road Wind is blowing silver and gold Listening to the pavement Blister up beneath your soul I'm gonna get Just what I always wanted Have to admit That I'm feeling a little bit haunted

Rome's Burning Coming over yeah, right on time Check my rabbit fur and four bags of wine Your old guitar is like a friend of mine Back in the grotto where we all feel fine The girls are smoking, won't you light that fire Work in the morning? Have you lost your mind? Say Mister Junior won't you pass that pipe? Tell the boss we ain't the working kind Rome's burning Yeah but we don't mind Called the cops But we're hard to find Back in the grotto Kicking back in style World's broken So we got all the time Ain't leaving till I see the light Creeping through at the end of the night EQ and Lou are sounding nice and tight Back in the garden where we all feel all right Rome's burning Yeah but we don't mind Called the cops But we're hard to find Back in the grotto Kicking back in style World's broken So we got all the time Jumped the fence back by the trees Skin's crawling on its hands and knees Andy's looking for his basement keys Shaking loose messing with the bees Rome's burning Yeah but we don't mind Called the cops But we're hard to find Back in the grotto Kicking back in style World's broken So we got all the time

about

The Bon Mots Chicago, Illinois

SPIN: Bon Mots are one of the most promising new bands out there. A-

JIM DEROGATIS: Jangly psychedelic/power-pop draws on Byrds and Zombies but rises to the top of this always-overcrowded genre by virtue of strong songwriting, swirling production.

AMPLIFIER: Understated irony frequently underscores bittersweet melodies.

ALL MUSIC GUIDE: Bon Mots just may be Chicago's best-kept secret.
