lyrics

Beckoned by some brunette sisters
Stacks of colored pictures, pills
Assurances of the best time we’ve ever had

We stood with eyes dilated
Condensation crawls from off the glass
Over our scarred Californian hands

Their bruises matched their dresses’ black
As we stood paralyzed with shame
An upturned nose with one eye closed
Your cocktail in a place I used to know
Kept unsafely between your legs

Dead eyed made up faces
Young and graceless with shoes that make them tall
Men with families buy their drinks

They hoover off the toilet tanks
Then work in banks when Monday comes
Or teach special education

These future mothers’ goateed lovers
Promise rooms with a good view
Shirts with crosses, memories lost
Save for some pictures of their food
And some of their drinks

Knotted in the black five gallon trash bag
Were drafts of your last note
All were selfish, all were honest

Punctuation flaws and penmanship aside
I couldn’t bear to leave them rotting
With the bottles and the flies

Mixing feel- good sonic sunshine with wonderfully raspy vocals seems to be the perfect combination for California based indy rock band, Work Friend. I can’t stop listening to this unassuming stunner. Album opener “Any Good” is the perfect open road song to help soundtrack your summer-to-autumn transition in style.
