Here, have a hit. I have no idea and I love, Love it and could never play it again a second time the same way ever.
And… It seems to have been recorded a week before I was laid off from a gig in Nevada City, California in the summer of ’16.
Love to Each and All.
Tha Kills in Austin 2016
So some how bad
All of them angels left town today
Nothin left for them girls to do
Follow down the bugle call
They just had to let me fall
The lord’s on my side
but his hands are tied
Hangin like a star in the Milky Way
There’s a party goin on around here today
Bangin on a cold blooded medicine drum
There’s a sky full of glory / i’m gonna get some
The lord’s on my side
but his hands are tied
Lookin for the secret in a red man’s boneyard
Pryin it loose with my brunette hot wrench
I make my own music / ain’t nobody’s business
Ain’t nothin to comin’ thru in a pinch
The lord’s on my side
but his hands are tied
Note: This was recorded in a cold Nebraska winter basement with no heat, strange energetic distortions and very poor musical synchronization. What a fuckin’ mess. On my side, indeed.
Now the hero’s got empty shoes
and the stand-in’s got the stage fright blues
they don’t get sick and the don’t get well
they spend their time a hangin’ around the ink well
Dyin’ from a pop disease
Crucified and the symptoms are these
Sex, Drugs, Money, Fame
It’s what the people want so I’m not to blame
Bridge:
Sign my paper with a manuscript
One way ticket to the kicking crypt
Where I can meet my devil say yakety-yak
Get my girl if I don’t look back
Lonely, in a crowded room
The music’s loud going boom boom!
Yeah what gets ya thru the night at the end of the day
No body understands a word you say
