Sulky boy, what are you mad about?
Save that dirty talk for the telephone
It’s exactly what you thought it was
But it’s not like you can’t come along
Or just wait around
Half past three you’ll see them
Two lovers who can’t sit down
So awkward
Oh, you know it’s not like in those catalogs
So come on sun make it through the fog
It’s what happens today
To someone who wanders
A hand to the face
You hit the water and go under the waves
Down, down
In a straight line
No hesitation
Hotel bars and business cards
Kissing photographs full on the mouth
When he finally called you just cut him off
I’m sorry I just couldn’t help but laugh
Well, that was last night
Now he won’t be coming back for more
You let him know for sure
He said he’s fine but something in his eyes
All those hours by the swimming pool
So go back to L.A.
Get your papers in order
Head back for the sun
You hit the water and sink under the waves
Down, down

Remember how Bill Murray woke up to I Got You Babe every day in Groundhog Day? If that song would have been Made Of Moods, he at the very least experienced three and a half perfect minutes each day. It’s one of those songs that I enjoy each and every second of, with it’s jangly guitars and hushed vocals that almost have a Beach Boys vibe, especially in the verse. Truly, it’s a song for the ages. But the best news about Still Life is that it offers eleven additional underground pop gems. Niek || Add To Wantlist
