lyrics

It was dark, late at night
The sand was blowing across the two lane highway
And those two same headlights were following me
I was looking for a diner, or a gas station
somewhere safe, somewhere with people
somewhere to lose those headlights in my rear view mirror

Three cups of coffee at 2 AM
My eyes are tired and I'm starting to see things
Starting to imagine things...

I passed a sign that said Miner's Rut by a dirt road that headed to the hills
The headlights pulled off and headed up the road.
That's when I I noticed my low fuel light had been on a while
I pulled over, turned around, and headed back to Miner's Rut.

Three cups of coffee at 2 AM
My eyes are tired and I'm starting to see things
Starting to imagine things...

Maybe there would be a gas station up Miner's Rut
The sand was still blowing when I reached the dirt road
A mile up the road I saw headlights coming my way.
I pulled over when I could and let the car pass by

Three cups of coffee at 2 AM
My eyes are tired and I'm starting to see things
Starting to imagine things...

The car was an old Chevy minivan and the driver was wearing sunglasses.
His hair was long and a light glinted off of his gold tooth.
I kept driving up Miner's Rut.
Up ahead was a gas station but it was closed.
I parked my car in the bushes, locked the doors and waited for sunrise.

Professor Yarnhead Pioneertown, California

Over twenty years ago my friend Brian had a dream in which there was a character named Yarn Head. When he told me about his dream I told him that years from now, when I was around 50 I’d have a band and I’d call myself Professor Yarnhead.

I guess that time has come!

Now I'm living and recording in the hi-desert in Southern California, near Joshua Tree in Pioneertown. ... more
