Fantasy Baseball At The End Of The World

by John K. Samson

supported by

Steve This a perfect melody with genius lyrics :)

zzzacck Any song from John is a gift. Here, his punk rock roots collide with his unmatched tenderness.

First time I heard this song it stopped me in my tracks. Still does, every time since

Gulik Slack Goddamn, I needed this.

nicolasduroque It's definitly one of John's best songs. Lifting up and turning anger into positive acts.

stuartmclean A perfectly-formed little gem that helped me through some tough times. Thanks so much John.

	I manage my fantasy baseball team better than I manage my anger these days, and I’d trade my best pitcher for a draft-pick and picture of the president writhing in pain. It’s a weird thing to wish for but I can’t stop wishing, refreshing the browser, someday if I live long enough and the world doesn’t end my wish will come true, in a way, and he’ll die like we all die, in pain or asleep, and we’ll still have our fantasy baseball, and the next fascist fucker in line for the job of demolishing hope for us all. So I’m putting in love now, I’m putting in faith, putting fear on a long-term IL. I’m going outside, I’m going to help organize something better. Something beautiful.

I love Lovecraft in Brooklyn, and this version captures the energy of the Mountain Goats in concert as well as any recording I've heard. My absolute favorite, but the live version of See America Right is a close second. Bangers, the both of 'em. theoysterking
