{1992 EP version digitized from DAT, edited and mastered}

lyrics

Citizen Self, in a voice made wood
Called in for help on the 24-hour crisis hotline
Says time is but sand, wherever I stand
Terra firma dreams of ocean

Take my hand, lead me on
Twist my arm till I understand
Say it's all in fun, oh, lead me on
In the slave and master 2-step

Citizen Self, in a voice made of glass
Called in for sex on the all-night erotic connection
But it's never enough, it's never complete
Oh, I need some greater stimulation

Take my hand, lead me on
Twist my arm till I understand
Say it's all in fun, oh, lead me on
In the slave and master 2-step

Oh, Orson Welles
I don't want to know
Oh, Orson Welles…

Take my hand, lead me on
Twist my arm till I understand
Say it's all in fun, oh, lead me on
In the slave and master 2-step

Oh, lead me on and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on

about

Myself a Living Torch San Francisco, California

By turns surreal, beautiful, arch, and melancholic, MaLT’s sonic adventures explore the meaning of love and role of sex in a failing, depersonalized culture. Literate enough for lasting relevance, tuneful enough for disposable pop; dark, sometimes heavy, but always with sly humor and a dash of hope. Active in SF CA between 1991 and 1993 ... Credit Louis-Ferdinand Céline for the incendiary name. ... more
