Bandits in the hot sun beating on the doldrums, waiting for hang men, dressed up in bedlam
Shouting out scriptures, pointing at the pictures posted on the billboards,
Paid for by war lords.
Unreal newsreel, tell Siri how you feel. Money from a bad deal, crushed by the big wheel
Paranoid humanoid unemployed schizoids, singed up, lined up, tied up and bound up
Yeah, yeah, yeah
See ‘em all falling down
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Living in loser town
Mary’s on food stamps, four kids, no grants, fighting off the side glance, pilled out romance
Words don’t appease her, hand to mouth fever, fire in a freezer, no one even sees her
Yeah, yeah, yeah
See ‘em all falling down
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Living in loser town
Call girls in China town, noose necked banker clowns, loaded up sex heads sneaking off to sick beds
Preachers and creepers, doorway sleepers. A vagabond Jesus is looking for believers
Strung out nut job, robbing all the doorknobs, searching for the house key, looking like Bukowski
Who sold his soul for rock and roll, poems in the bathroom, a needle and a hot spoon
Yeah, yeah, yeah
See ‘em all falling down
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Living in loser town

Each year the same story: My wife (handmade pop music) and I (black metal maniac) go on holiday. We need some "soft" but honest music for long car drives. It is a tough week in advance to dive deeply into musical scrap to find some pearls like MARGO PRICE! She presents easy going country pop, smooth and with pleasant vocals, reminding me sometimes even at Stevie Nicks. The title track is one of my favourites, but also the other songs are catchy and performed with smooth energy, H.L.
