These two tunes were written when I realized I had a recording studio booked for the next day...and had nothing prepared to record. One of those rare occasions that I wrote two tunes in about an hour. I don't really know what the titles mean. Just liked the sound of the words together. Licking the Moss sort of reminded me of those cultures that lick toads to get high. Licking the Moss just seems like it could be dangerous.
