about
Pan Amsterdam gave us "The Pocket Watch". Even when revealing his condition and true identity to the public. This didn't stop the flow of interest and respect from new found fans as well as fellow contemporaries. Open Mike Eagle became an immediate fan and patron of Pan Am and took him on tour last Fall. They even cut a single together entitled, "No Snare".
One of the stops during the tour was Texas. Pan Am and Iggy Pop agreed to meet up and cut a track. "The one thing that comes to mind when travelling through Texas is its Texas Tea (oil)" Pan Am said while on break in the studio. "There's a lot of ways of living that rendezvous at the local gas station". It was as if Pan Am grew up with this knowledge since the cradle or something. This undoubtedly is the thought process behind the tune Iggy and Pan Am cut, " Mobile".
lyrics
"Mobile"
Two scratchers, Beef jerky, and a Power Ball
" "
I paint self hate portraits in acrylic,
Since pedophiles think I'm not photogenic
So cook up what you want in your burnt out skillet,
Just know I do hunt and do know how to kill it
You think you get the cow from the milk, the worm from the silk,
The friggin' slave from the quilt
Put food on my table one day but mad 'cause I didn't offer you lemonade from lemons,
planted by Lady Day
Strange fruit hangin, dead your syringe,
Distorted guitars make white soul djs cringe
Pan Am's plasma makes hair on heads singe,
X-class solar flare, I impinge
Give you vegetation and life but don't get to close,
I ain't your star gate, burn you up like Sunday's pot roast
Like old fast food grease, and burnt onion rings,
Don't worry about the two thousand in over rings
aiight
Consider me your most humble worker,
I'm lookin' at you as I make your burger
And when I punch out I'm up to nothin funny,
Just at the gas station makin' the city money
And when I'm next in line I'm in it to win it,
Playin' the lotto dreamy eyed like I was Tony Bennett
When I lose consolation rolls up in a minute,
Toothless meth head offerin', mad clinic
Some are better than the rest of us,
Reaching Nirvana with tooth ferries gazing out windows at Pegasus
More mobile than the rest of us,
Takin' life by the jugular, the be the best of regular
Back in the driver's seat Iggy be the passenger,
concession stand delicacies for my scavengers
Kicked outta Dawson's creek, darkness be a challenger,
Poison Ivy still yields plans on my calendar
Ebony and Ivory,
Wonder and McCartney, They in the backseat
We takin no briberies, shame you like Rwanda for takin the ivory outta the
Elephant's teeth
We playin musical chairs,
And you still lose if the music stops even if your PR did not
No kissin' fake derrieres,
Cause we still choose what's cream of the crop even if your AR forgot
To Hell with your trials and tribulations,
You're flippin burgers go prep the station
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA This here Hahahahaha...
Two scratchers, Beef jerky, and a Power Ball

Production
When Pan Amsterdam washed up on the coast, he was wearing an oversized black velvet jacket with a cigarette burn, black
jeans and two different coloured church socks. Further along the coast we found a trumpet case WITH a trumpet inside of it, in the case's side zipper there was a mouthpiece, valve oil for the horn, and a drive with tape on. Written on the tape were the words, "Elevator Music"....more
Exceptional punk music! I love sloppy punk, but this manages to be clean without without losing any energy at all (maybe even getting more of it in the process!). Can't recommend it enough and show them to everyone I know zacharypinkham
