This song is by Thin White Rope and appears on the album Sack Full Of Silver (1990). I've been telling you, so you ought to knowWhat will happen unless you forgo. The pulsing sun reverses the propellersOn the Cessna planeIt falls into the jungle and is swallowed by the rain. Week after week, the monkeys watch the fallen sons decayTrying to get through the windows to theChocolate on their face.

Like all Thin White Rope releases, Sack Full of Silver is defined by the voice of Guy Kyser: the aural equivalent of the flat, parched, endless landscape his characters seem to inhabit. Sobering realizations, like dead ends, await them around every corner. In an environment where failure, desperation, and hopelessness are common currency, adding up one's losses and moving on feels like a great victory. It's clearly no easy task
