hemiparetic asked: Hey, I saw you in a show at the Cats Cradle a few years back and I vividly remember you asking the audience to turn off all their recording devices so you could sing a song that was purely for the crowd that night. Which was SUPER cool, honestly it made me feel special being there. I can’t remember a good deal of the words, but I was hoping you could respond with the lyrics? The only thing that really stuck in my mind was the line, “sometimes we mosh”

Sometimes we mosh, sometimes we stretch, sometimes we dance

sometimes we need some help getting dressed

sometimes we put on our own pants

sometimes we’re at 100%

sometimes we need to rest a little while in the tent,

but sometimes we mosh


my name is Daddy, I mosh with Roman when the day is new

if you come to say hi, we could mosh with you

but maybe it’s naptime, and we’re sound asleep

neither moshing nor dancing, just dreaming of sheep


but when we wake up, it’s on once again

fire up the boombox

turn it all the way up to 10

‘cause sometimes we mosh

sometimes we mosh

sometimes we inside skate, sometimes we outside skate

and sometimes…we mosh
