lyrics

and i'm aware that you think i'm a slob
took all my filthy habits, turned them into a job
holding on to this cup of coffee for now might keep me safe
but every favorite cup will break someday

ain't it fun when things get worse
or just as bad as they can be
where can we meet up to rehearse
the great uncertainty

and i've been dodgin people, partys, events
domestic violence next door has gotten more intense
and i've been dodgin my moral code and responsibilities
domestic violence sounds better with chords underneath

ain't it fun when things get worse
or just as bad as they can be
where can we meet up to rehearse
the great uncertainty

and you must be aware that every relationship
is just a fuckin countdown for somebody to quit
or to die, or to get a pet
i don't know much but i guess that there is nothing wrong with that

ain't it okay when things stay okay
fuck the great uncertainty
ain't it okay when things stay okay
fuck the great uncertainty

i try to deal with the medical facts printed on the sleeves
of all of your cigarette packs, in these times of peace
they sent out the attack telephone command
do you copy, black elephant band?

„[...] ungeschliffene, gestochen scharf auf den Punkt kommende, englischsprachige
Songminitaturen voll von schrägem Humor und bitterbösen Weltbetrachtungen, die schlecht
gestimmte Gitarre schnörkellos rudimentär, die Stimme ein wütendes Knurren, kaum ein Lied
länger als zweieinhalb Minuten. Wunderbar!“ (NN)

"Schräger Antifolk mit Bart, Klampfe und Mundharmonika. Zum Verlieben!" (A&F) ... more
