about
A little ditty about getting in over your head with shady people in the city of San Francisco specifically.
lyrics
LYRICS:
Out of the asphalt, a rose bush is growing.
Spiralling softly, they shutter their eyes.
Permanent vacation by defenestration.
Mellowing swiftly. A victimless crime.
I can’t imagine the dough that you lost.
What didjya mean when you called me the boss?
Second sign, like a bat out of Hell.
Oh, back and forth. Oh, back and forth,
This little rendezvous is gonna be the death of me.
West of the Sunset, a beach by the ocean.
Don’t bother scannin’, man, just park at the zoo.
Detect a wrong like you’re caught in slow motion.
All scarlet begonias with a touch of the blues.
Well, I can’t imagine the dice that you tossed.
What didjya mean by ‘We’re cutting our losses’?
Third strike, like a rat of the wharf.
Oh, back and forth. Oh, back and forth.
My little rendezvous’re gonna be the death of me.
Can’t you imagine a world without end?
Right as the fog breaks. You’re not even lookin’.
Started things off with the best of intent,
but back and forth, oh, back then.
But those little rendezvous’re but ancient history.

The entire first portion of this song was produced by Chris "Barry March" Keough in collaboration with Kevin and Gene from Telethon. Barry's band Barely March is incredible and I guarantee if you like Telethon you'll like him! He's goin' places! 7.5 on Pitchfork, MFer!
