| Appears on | BDCDS064 |
| Next | Beck - Broken Drum |

Comments[edit]
- The ending of this remix, consisting of a musical climax followed by a single sustained piano chord, is almost certainly a homage to the ending of The Beatles' 1967 song "A Day in the Life".[1] Boards of Canada have expressed interest in the Beatles in interviews, specifically mentioning their work from 1967 in Two Aesthetes of Electronic Music.
- An instrumental version of this remix was included in a 2020 Deluxe Edition of cLOUDDEAD's 2004 album Ten.[2]
Samples / Lyrics[edit]
- Flute sampled from "When the Music Starts to Play" by The Incredible String Band.[3][4]
- Second flute sampled from "Aloha Oe" by Terry Snyder And The All Stars.[5][6]
- At 0:46 a reversed segment from "Barangrill" by Joni Mitchell.[7] This sample was discovered by Twoism user personman.
Lyrics
From the height of the highway onramp we saw,
two dogs, a-dead in a field,
To be dead center of a curious crowd
Glowing on the Oakland colliseum green seats wasteland,
Dogs, dogs we thought were dead,
They rose up, rose up when whistled at,
Their rib cages inflating like
men on the beach being photographed,
A guard dog, guard dog, for what? for what?
Against overzealous penniless athletic fanatics,
Getting into games through a hole in the fence,
For the owner of the blue tarp tent,
Pitched by a creek beneath an onramp,
In the privacy, of the last three,
Skin and bony trees, devoid of leaves,
And us undeceased, and with our new CDs,
Zippin' on dead east, Oakland
It's hard to stand the sight of two dogs dead
under a sky so blue,
You have to stop the blood to your head,
to fit the breath in front of you,
We secretly long to be some part of a car crash,
Long to see your arms stripped to the tendons,
The nudity of swelling exposed vein,
webbing the back of your hand,
To be a red tendoned dog,
To be red tendoned dogs,
Blood breathing by the side of the highway
I long to be dead,
center of a curious crowd,
To be touched,
sticky like nearly dried paint,
Their soft silent stare, nursing your face,
Anticipating the slightest pinch I flinch of pain,
Everyone blank in accident awe,
as the car crash fiberglass dust,
straight up settles on your raw muscle tissue
It's hard to stand the sight of two dogs dead
under a sky so blue,
You have to stop the blood to your head,
to fit the breath in front of you,
To be a red tendoned dog,
To be red tendoned dogs,
To be red tendoned dogs,
To be red tendoned dogs,
