about

Written during Th' Spectacles era, late 90's, and originally recorded by Tom Catmull on The Sound of a Car (2000), this song has been a strong, if short, part of most of my performances since its creation. I thought it was time to put it on one of my own records.

lyrics

I WAS DOWN AND DONE IN
NOW I’M UP AND RUNNIN’
SOME FEELINGS NEVER GET OLD
I WAS DOWN AND DONE IN
NOW I’M UP AND RUNNIN’
QUICKSILVER, OXYGEN, GOLD


QUICKSILVER RUNS AWAY
OXYGEN’S HERE TO STAY
GOLD PRETENDS TO MAKE IT WORTHWHILE
QUICKSILVER FOR SPEED
OXYGEN TO BREATHE
GOLD FOR THE HONEY IN YOUR SMILE

I WAS DOWN AND DONE IN
NOW I’M UP AND RUNNIN’
IT’S HARD TO DO WHAT YOU’RE TOLD
I WAS DOWN AND DONE IN
NOW I’M UP AN’ RUNNIN’
QUICKSILVER, OXYGEN, GOLD

QUICKSILVER KILLS YOU
OXYGEN FILLS YOU
GOLD IS THE WEIGHT IN YOUR CHEST
RISIN’ AND FALLIN’
LISTEN: CLARITY’S CALLIN’
THAT OLD GENTLE FLAME IN THE WEST

I WAS DOWN AND DONE IN
NOW I’M UP AND RUNNIN’
SOME FEELINGS NEVER GET OLD
I WAS DOWN AND DONE IN
NOW I’M UP AND RUNNIN’
QUICKSILVER, OXYGEN, GOLD
