lyrics

Staring at your shoes like they’re gold
Your told, she’s into stuff that’s interesting
Ashing on the basement floor
You I swore, she laughed when she looked at me
She knows she’d poke holes in
Every story you or any one had ever told
She dances, so slowly
In the palm of your hand

She’s looking at you like she kinda thinks you’re funny
She’s dancing like you wish that you could be that free
Askin’ what the hell you do for money
She said, why would you laugh at me?

I've seen you in the back of her car
False start, the bumpin' tells a tale or two
Can we get away from this place?
Go race, to the floor of your bedroom
She knows she’d poke holes in
Your sheets and your words and your heartstrings
She dances, no tunes on
She ain't shit to you

She’s looking at you like she kinda think you’re funny
She’s smiles like you wish that you could be that free
Askin’ you what the hell do you do for money
She said, why would you laugh at me?

She kills you with a glance
You laugh incessantly
Begging you to dance
But you’ve got two left feet
Ain’t it funny when
She’s begging you to stay
You’ve lost count of
what you laugh and joke
and drink and smoke away
Baby don’t joke
This hurts as I’m watching you both grow old
I wish she'd have never seen your shoes of gold
You were bugged from the start,
I wish you’da known

She’s looking at you like she don’t think you're funny
Tired of this oh we’ll just wait and see
Asking what the hell do you do for money
She said, why would you laugh at
Why would you laugh at
Why you would you laugh at me?

about

Fizzbang Hamtramck, Michigan

Born, like so many others, in the basements of Bloomington this young band is the bastard spawn of a some beautiful bastard dawn. It's like if the Arctic Monkeys were to have an affair with the Foo Fighters and then as if that child were to somehow meet Biffy Clyro and The Strokes and have a three way with them?!! The unruly lab rat consequences of that bang were ultimate and deciding. ... more
