Green Carrot Jam
October 31st, 2009
You do not like green carrot jam?
I do not like it, Sam-I-am.
Could you, would you, out of jars?
I would not, could not, out of jars!
Would you, could you, with guitars?
I could not, would not, with guitars.
I will not listen, not with drums
I will not, not with fingers, thumbs,
Not lowered, raised, before or next!
Not even phased! Not echoplexed!
I do not like it with a plate.
I do not like it early, late,
I do not like it with delay.
I do not like it any way.
I do not like it fast or slow.
I do not like it, no, no, no!
I do not like green carrot jam.
I do not like it, Sam-I-am.
You do not like it.
So you say.
Try it! Try it!
And you may.
Try it, and you may, I say.
Sam! If you will let me be, I will try it. You will see.
Say! I like green carrot jam!
I do! I like it, Sam-I-am!
And I would listen with no words!
A fuzzbox and some major thirds…
And I will listen all the time.
Even if it doesn’t rhyme.
Any tempo, any key!
It is so good, so good, you see!
Green Carrot Jam was preserved for future use during the Perpetual Motion sessions in April of this year. The recipe is a secret; its rare ingredients are arcane and unobtainable (perhaps even unpronounceable), but the rest is obvious:
The Green Carrot Jam EP goes on sale October 31st at midnight, GMT.
There are an extremely limited number of CD copies available. Each black vinyl replica CD is packaged in a mini record sleeve, and comes in a hand-made organza bag containing a small strip of photos. CDs are £3.75 plus postage [ click to order ], or if you prefer, get the download for £2.00.

Ode to Green Carrot Jam
Let there be psychedelia, man!
Can you dig it, Sam-I-am?
Takes me back so long ago,
When jamming was part of the show!
And old Doc Leary would be proud
As all the Dead Heads in the crowd
To hear the art is still alive
And rainbow colored sound survives
With analog synthesizer Grace
Drums, guitar and solid bass
A flight through time to free your mind
A journey of the sonic kind
So turn me on and queue the band
And I will listen, Sam-I-am!
