lyrics

BEGGARS AND KINGS
you called me up
you said "please man tell me anything
I think I need to hear somebody talk"
you said you haven't slept in a week or so
but you're not counting
"and this town, all the people are the same"
don't know why you stick around
but you're not the one to blame
and on and on

sometimes it's so damn hard to let it go
for a life less ordinary when you're there
just let me know

beggars and kings what's holding you back?
lose your baggage now
drive your new car into the next ditch
a penny or a crown

you're wishing hell upon your friends
never seeing them again
they say the first step is the hardest
but you're not counting
my old man said: "always keep your neck straight
and if life gets tough you'll get tougher and wait"
but what did he know?

sometimes it gets too hard to let it go
for a life less ordinary when you're there
you gotta let me know

if you never get lost you can never be found
will you make it out?
because your heart's all yours and yours only to keep
do you hear it? do you hear that sound?

and then I swore you'd hear from me
sometimes I miss you, honestly
but good things come to those who wait or so they say
I'll wait another day

This is a damn fine release. It feels genuine; at times even emotional (in a good way). It's fun and witty while also being pissed off in all the right ways. It's political, critical, and nonconformist. Yet it still manages to feel original in an arguably oversaturated genre. Nicholas Whittemore
