You stand up like you just fell down
Swimming up river like you know how to drown
And you pave the way
With all your proper nouns
You genuflect when you should take a rest
Bowing to the east and fast asleep in the west
You could change your mind
With the heart in your chest
Just drop out
Go for a drive
Like your daddy used to do
In 1965
And you can listen to the radio
All the way to San Francisco
A lost pause is all that you found
Peeking round the corner for a singular sound
And you stop to talk
When you hit holy ground
The graveyard doesn't care for your type
When you're eating your bananas way before they get ripe
And you peel that green skin
And call your guru on skype
Drop out
Go for a drive
Like your daddy used to do
In 1965
And you can listen to the radio
All the way to San Francisco
Drop out
Hitchin' a ride
Like your daddy used to do
Before he swallowed his pride
But you can listen to the radio
All the way to San Francisco
Another great record from Pedro the Lion. I'm from Arizona, so these past 2 albums have be re-shaping my boyhood memories, attaching to locations like glue. RYNO // 라이노
Huge Bazan/Pedro the Lion fan. All four Bazan tracks are solid. "My Body" is one of the best songs he's ever written. The Sean Lane tracks are pretty cool too. Jason S.
The Massachusetts band's eighth album offers a punchy, garage rock-inspired take on classic Americana that's rugged and infectious. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 5, 2023
Their name is misleading: Nebraska group Uh Oh deliver delightfully raucous, guitar-driven rock & roll with rootsy hooks for days. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 4, 2021
