Notes:
Shannon: We wrote it right before we went to Woodstock.  We played it at woodstock.  It was on the compilation album.  It was a collage of things.  It was right around the time Kurt Cobain had killed himself...a family that lived in Chicago that used to have this corner store called Tuttie's,  there was an older Italian man, he didn't understand me or what I did for a living but he liked me but never understood why he liked me.  It was really about 4 stories tied up in one, rather than me explain it to you.  Its kinda written in an ambigous way so you can draw from it whatever you want.

Christopher: I thought it should have been considered for the Soup record.

Rogers: For some reason, it didn't fit into the batch of songs, which was probably just a whim on that particular day.  That's just the way we did things. Shannon was in a race with his ideas and every now and then he'd reach out, grab one and throw it down into a line.  He was kind of difficult to follow in a linear fashion.  This was a typical song of his, very abstract.

Lyrics:
The clothesline of cold eyes
is washing away the face before
Now tell me what's wrong you see everyone's gone
You gotta do your best to decorate this dying' day
This dying' day
All over a bowl of bitter beans
And outside way, way up high I got a quarter moon mist
hanging' over me
And now, I want that rocking chair outta there
Cause he's no longer living here
It's no longer needed here
All over a bowl of bitter beans
And I got a corner store and that's all the more
For me to praise upon the holidays
And now I'll close my eyes really, really tight
and make you all go away,
I'll make you all go all go away
And I'll pull the trigger and make it all go away
And I'll make it all go away, I'll make it all go away
