Jordan Galland’s newest song “The Comet” marks over two decades of collaborating with friends and mentors Sean Lennon (who played bass and guitar on the recording) and Timo Ellis (who produced and arranged the track.) The album art is by Colby Sadeghi.
The Comet
Everybody’s gonna try to give you directions.
Everybody’s gonna want to hand out life lessons
And in the end you’ll only have more questions.
You can spend your days high on the hog
But everything’s the same, says the fog
You can walk around with the upper hand
But it all comes and goes, says the sand.
Everyone’s wondering what you’re really after.
Everybody’s trying to guess your password
but they’ll be left with more questions than answers.
You can take a ride on the gravy train
but it all washes away, says the rain.
You can spend your time with the creme de la creme
but it all rolls to the bottom, says the mountain.
They say you gotta want it so bad that you’re ready fight.
They say you gotta love it and dream of it every night.
But there’s always one more tunnel at the end of your light.
You can show your face in the private room.
But everything’s the same, says the moon.
You can spend your days with deep pockets,
but it all comes and goes says the comet.
