I was in many minds
I was in an airport bookstore
I wait for many moons
Left a suitcase on the fourth floor
Enormous balloons
Gold chocker all made out of spoons
Eatin' super sugar crisp
I was getting used to this
Well

Light will keep your heart beating in the future
Light will keep your heart beating in the future
Keep your heart beating in the -
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the

There was a lot of them
Ther was a bloody fight next door
The was a crack stem
There was a ghoul on the misty moor
City bus
Ketamine
Lucy Lawless
Magazine
Out of base
Lucky charm
Outer space
Smoke alarm

Light will keep your heart beating in the future
Light will keep your heart beating in the future
Keep your heart beating in the -
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the

Overlap
Overleaf
Shoulder strap
Fire chief
Porch swing
Moneyless
Purple wine
Freckle face
Heavy hand
Closed door
Contraband
North shore
Fine line
Margarine
Ridin' line
Mandarin

Light will keep your heart beating in the future
Light will keep your heart beating in the future
Keep your heart beating in the -
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the

Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the

Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the
Keep your heart, keep your heart beating
Keep your heart beating, beating
Keep your heart beating in the, beating in the...

I bumped this song to an 8 when I caught the line "Eating' super sugar crisp"! Loved that cereal when I was a kid. Brought back memories.
bumping this to a 9 because i just found myself dancing pretty hard at my standing desk just now. {#Bananasplit}

OMG, you're absolutely right. I'll mention it to him. (Seriously)
My ears are bleeding
A rhetorical question - how many other songs use the word margarine? 
Flatline, please!
Not bad!
I really need to listen to RP more often with my headphones on. This is sublime.
I like this song, and some of the other ones from this album, but he really isn't trying very hard to make something memorable. (The rap/hip-hop songs on the album are just awful. It's like self-sabotage.) He's very musical, and could probably write songs like this in his sleep. I just wish he'd push himself a bit more, and maybe hire a band instead of playing to samples and programmed beats.
Dig it.
Thank you for playing for me!

Love this guy's lyrics and voice, even when it's not heavily treated. He seems to have a low-pitch vibrato when he sings, almost like a variation on Tuvan throat singing. 
Awful, boring, get on my nervs!
muy bad, las lyrics too ....next
muy bueno

I gotta say that I saw Mike D about 2-3 years ago when he rolled through Charleston SC.  It was just him w guitar, and a stand-up cellist.  Best show I have seen in ages.


Not his finest work but always nice to hear Doughty!
I do hope we hear this again. Nice line of tunes dude.
Always nice to be first. . . :)

This is great! I just love hearing new music and it hitting my hears in a pleasing manner. This is an 8 right out of the box.
