lyrics
Eric, I see your rosary beads
Fastened to your wall
There's a lamp shade in the bathroom sink
Next to an old doll
You turn all the pages in your book
How were the days they overlooked?
Why gander at them all?
And why do you wonder how we fall?
In your room I see the patterned scarves
Hanging from your drawer
Paintings you did years ago
Adorn your floor
How were the days we overlooked
Lost in the pages of your book?
Don't you gander at it all
And stop that wondering why we fall
I could have tried
Stick a needle in my eye
I wouldn't lie eating cherry pie
I could have tried
With that needle in my eye
I shouldn't hide
With french fries on the side
I could have tried
Stick a needle in my eye
Fastened to your wall
There's a lamp shade in the bathroom sink
Next to an old doll
You turn all the pages in your book
How were the days they overlooked?
Why gander at them all?
And why do you wonder how we fall?
In your room I see the patterned scarves
Hanging from your drawer
Paintings you did years ago
Adorn your floor
How were the days we overlooked
Lost in the pages of your book?
Don't you gander at it all
And stop that wondering why we fall
I could have tried
Stick a needle in my eye
I wouldn't lie eating cherry pie
I could have tried
With that needle in my eye
I shouldn't hide
With french fries on the side
I could have tried
Stick a needle in my eye

-
Shop Regulars Meet Ian Christensen At Dino Alley
by Shop RegularsPseudo locked groove guitars, aggressive pitter-patter drumming, and vocals that sound like Sara Carter channeling Calvin Johnson- what's not to like from Portland's See My Friends Records affiliates?
go to album -
You Might Be Happy Someday
by The Reds, Pinks & PurplesThe seemingly endless output of The RP&P's catchy chorus-jangled melancholy keeps you coming back for more and more. Like if you captured Robert Smith's mindset during "The Head On The Door".

I Ain't Goin' Out Tonight
by GourmetI think I was supposed to release this album in 2016, but either I stopped responding to Gourmet's emails or Gourmet stopped responding to my emails. Regardless, the release did not happen.
