I used to live at a place in East Hollywood called the Church of F.U.N. Back when you could live there. For no particular reason I decided to start a project in which I would write and record a new song every week and share it online until I felt like stopping. All the recordings were done in the main room there and it wasn't uncommon for there to be members of the house and friends hanging out or passing through while that was happening. After 14 songs I realized I had an album, and that is what this CD is.
I think Gibbons plays some banjo on a track, and Dusty plays tambourine or harmonica on a track. That might be on the other album from this project, Nine Weeks.
I wrote and played and engineered everything otherwise, as far as I can remember.

lyrics
I got a diplomatic boner, for all the people in the world tonight
I'm a punk rock hootchie coochie, I don't think that I will ever die
I'm fighting for the free world, free world
I'm fighting for the free world, free world
Love springs eternal, a man and a robot, making little robo-babies
Funny thing about the future, well every body says its never gonna come
I kinda think it doesnt matter, my baby she already got some
And now she's fighting for the free world, free world
And now she's fighting for the free world, free world
And the we started fighting, the ones who make us slaves
And then it started raining, on bodies in the graves
And zombies started walking, and getting in our way
The battle for the free world, continues till today
