lyrics

Hello, my name in Simon, and the things I draw come true
It seems my own creations are reality to you
But even if I told you it's a lie, I think you'd still believe
Because truth is something no one seems to need.

Hello, my name in Simon; yes, I know you know me well
I live inside your TV box and stare out at your cell.
telling you that everything's okay,
so you can waste away your days
On the other, more important games you play...

See, truth is just a detail in our very complex lives
Where we keep track of our money
as we keep track of our wives
And honesty and virtue are commodities to sell
Sex is up another point, but love has gone to hell.

Hello, my name is Simon and the things I draw come true
My network's now at number one, it's all because of you
You people who don't question what you see
Have made a millionaire of me
And now my lies are true because you all believe

about

whatever... Cleveland, Ohio

whatever... was a Cleveland band in the 1990s. We opened for lots of great acts (e.g., Jawbox, Bosstones, Samiam) and even had a following of our own. Really, if you went to a Cleveland punk show in the mid-'90s, chances are pretty good you saw us. This is the stuff we were playing early on.

You can also hit either of the below links to buy the band's final album, Youngsters, on Amazon or iTunes.
