lyrics
You're not the right shape
and you're not the right size
you don't get along with others
but you need to realize
That the actors in the movies
are not what you're sposed to be
but you are great the way you are
you are you, that's best, you see
We've all been looking for role models
and turned our eyes to hollywood
but that's not where to find them
look to yourself, yes, that is good
It's ok.. velociraptor
don't be sad.. velociraptor
you're the size of a turkey not a lion
you can't turn a know and don't have friends to rely on
the movies have created an unattainable expectation
the raptors in those films were an fictional creation
don't judge yourself too hard velociraptor
you are good the way you are velociraptor
and you're not the right size
you don't get along with others
but you need to realize
That the actors in the movies
are not what you're sposed to be
but you are great the way you are
you are you, that's best, you see
We've all been looking for role models
and turned our eyes to hollywood
but that's not where to find them
look to yourself, yes, that is good
It's ok.. velociraptor
don't be sad.. velociraptor
you're the size of a turkey not a lion
you can't turn a know and don't have friends to rely on
the movies have created an unattainable expectation
the raptors in those films were an fictional creation
don't judge yourself too hard velociraptor
you are good the way you are velociraptor

There are so many lovely songs on this double album, but E.S.B. helped me through my own troubles - with my change in career, with my divorce, and with ending a number of toxic friendships.

Standing Stones is one of the best albums I have ever listened to. Every song on it is excellent, and some are just some of the best songs I’ve heard. I can’t even pick a favorite song between Bones, Independence, Hope, Vespers... really all of them. Just listen to it. Thank you for releasing this incredible album.
