Cannonball was one of the bonus tracks added to the re-release of Thick As Thieves when the boys signed to Ressurection-AD records.
lyrics
Every once in a while I feel like taking off
Taking off and I'm never looking back
Look myself in the eye
Truth forces me to testify
Taking off and I'm never looking back
Don't look back
These hard days I joined the underdogs
To keep my flame lit within
Coming up from the bottom
Frayed at the ends
Go to the moments
Can the world catch up with me
It's inside - it's my design
Why stand by waiting
Then I'll be empty
(Won't you come after me?)
Running for that open door means I'm still free
Is it what it feels like?
Cannonball, fall, cannonball
Every once in a while I feel like taking off
Taking off and I'm never looking back
Life is such a surprise
And I won't drown in these rough tides
Taking off and I'm never looking back
Don't stand by waiting...
Then I'll be empty
(Won't you come after me?)
Running for that open door means I'm still free
Is it what it feels like?
Cannonball, fall, cannonball
Fall down yeah
(When I fall away from you)
Is it what it feels like?
Cannonball, fall, cannonball

Boston post-punk outfit Junk Ranchers broke up in 1986 before this, their debut album, was released; darkly melodic, it's a long-lost gem. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 22, 2020
Searing psych-rock from this Boston group that doubles down on gnarled, biting riffs, topping them with spaced-out vocal lines. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2019
