From the recording O.P.M. (Outer Planetary Motion)
I like to write about real-life experiences and things that others may be able to relate to, but every song does not have to be borne of a serious nature. Sometimes you sit down to write a song in a silly mood. A song can come to you like a bolt of lightning, or a slow and deliberate process comparable to giving birth or passing a kidney stone. You don't always know exactly where you are headed. This song had no road map or GPS and landed far out of this world. Happy accidents are cool.
Oh.... and I love my wife.

O.P.M. (Outer Planetary Motion) Words & music JRRothrock 5/18/2006
While in retrograde space flight… in Quadrant 33…
...we suffered total shutdown of all systems violently.
Nervous systems neutralized by gas with sweet aroma…
...Suspended animation…crew slipping into coma…
Ship over-taken… boarded... by alien life, unknown…
Slowly regained consciousness on planet... far from home.
Being held against our will… condition is severe.
Life forms in primitive ritual… as vision starts to clear.
Observe most beautiful creatures… that I have ever seen.
A female species, sensual… dancing sexually.
An Alpha Male… may be their King…did not detect before.
Sits on a stone, some kind of throne… applauds, and asks for more.
(Their King speaking) “Bummmm-bummm-bummm… bummm-bummm-bummm…”
My eyes… my ears… my body! My heart… my will… my soul!
Vibrations taking over… My thoughts... in a black hole.
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing… Their bodies dance and sway.
Don’t want to watch! Losing control… but cannot look away!
*******************************************************************
They’re dancing over to us now. There’s one all over me!
It’s too much! Pain is "pleasure"! Can feel… but cannot see!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Orgasmic pleasure… ecstasy… involuntary twitch…
The rhythms… the sensations… have reached a fevered pitch!
Helpless, total submission… My demise is clear!
I cannot stop! My eardrums pop! There’s no way out of here!!!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The fullness of the body… the roundness of the orbs…
My cells begin mutation…and slowly I’m absorbed!
Have lost genetic makeup… as "human", I am done!
Full merger with this creature… WE ARE, FOREVER, ONE!!!
…this will be my final transmission…
…please tell my wife… I love…….
…oooh… ahhh… …oooh… ahhh… …oooh… ahhh… (fades)
