TRUE OR LONELY they clean their cars they try too hard they smile too wide but aren't polite and they don't like the bands you like and they all hate you that might be true and all but then are you just lonely are you just lonely right now you can't pretend you're making ends your slats and ropes barely float and your clothes don't fit you cry too quick you lost your youth that might be true and all but then are you just lonely are you just lonely right now

STUNNING AT SOMETHING you're kicking because you're supposed to with so many floors you're falling through and you can't say it's okay that nothing here has gone to waste but you should just say it anyway i think it's better you try you're stunning at something i know you can find it it's such a beautiful night you're stunning at something i know you can find it i'm one of the friends who calls you back i'm one of the ones who prays for you and you might spy a scraped sky hollow as a lullaby it doesn't excuse you from this life i think it's better you try you're stunning at something i know you can find it it's such a beautiful night you're stunning at something i know you can find it just let the idiots slide you're stunning at something i know you can find it

I WOULDN'T MAKE YOU HAPPY drunk on your four-figure couch i never want to get out just pick something from the rented stack don't worry i'll take it back looking so good it bums me out you blister my hands and shut my mouth send me to bed with skinny arms sing me to sleep with car alarms i was thinking maybe i could but i know i wouldn't make you happy seems like it's been long enough let down your hair and i'll climb up swing down that sweet chariot cause it's cold where i wait for the bus i was thinking maybe i could but i know i wouldn't make you happy

SPIRIT OF 91 the review was for a band i'd never heard but they listed everyone that you and i preferred so i picked it up and got my gas tank full we played it over and over out back on your cheap portable you rubbed your chucks together underneath your robe and thanked your lucky stars that your folks weren't home and green bottles clink and sometimes you just know it wouldn't go that far we had too far to go sense the sky right through the ceiling and all those hours ripe for stealing doing it one more time this time with feeling doing it one more time this time with feeling

about

In 2003, a then-single Dan Zapruder drafted his married friends Tom (drums & vocals) and Casey (violin) to form a trio. Focusing entirely on his distorted/acoustic "two-string" guitar style, Dan wrote a smattering of pop songs, and was challenged to write fiddle parts for each. The resulting EP, recorded in friend John Aselin's practice space, is perhaps the most purely fun release in the Zapruder Point catalog -- though "True or Lonely" provides a reflective counterpoint, and "I Wouldn't Make You Happy" is what Oasis might sound like if they put down the lager for a second and had a shoestring budget.
