Pinback - This Red Book

Pinback - This Red Book

"And I don't know how it goes
I've found another way though.
Tells us all it knows
I've finally caught a deal.

Your face above
Fades out all the reels.
Your face above
Fazes all there is.
Uh oh- There's a spot in my eye.
Uh oh- There's a pill I have missed.

The cloves of garlic flow
Like surfing down Pompeii.
I'm messing up your show.
You really should have guessed.

Your face above
The only spark I need.
Your face above
If I could reach your throat
Uh oh- I could strangle you all
Uh oh- Did I say that out loud?

Although it passed the mail,
It blew a fuse and bailed
It's too blue to be ours.
And though it passed as red,
It's too far off and best guess
Has it soaked at home.

Uh oh- There's a spot in my eye
Uh oh- There's a pill I have missed.

And this little red book knows.
Its become my every day.
I've taped over your show
You really should have guessed

Your face above
The only spark I need.
Your face above
If I could reach your throat
Uh oh- I could strangle you all
Uh oh- Did I say that out loud?

And though the text was fed,
Too obvious, they said, and moved it underground.
Between the lines they met
Like sulfur burns they spread
Too angry to go out.

Light my heard
Make me burn out
Like your name"

All their songs are perfect

Good stuff dude i totally agree with everything you said. You know who else did that with there lyrics the Beatles. Pinback's genius is similar to the beatles except they are from our time. They are the hidden geniuses of our time. probably will never make it to mainstream but good music almost never does anyway nowadays

@1:39 is anybody else hearing the chord progression and timing of "drive all over town" by elliott smith?

pb: And though it passed as red...

es: Until he tracks her down...

Never heard a bad Pinback song

@3isallwesee Bro...I thought I was the only one who heard nuances of one of the "Greatest" bands of all time nestled within the sweet sounds of Pinback. To be compared to the Beatles, says a lot, even in the slightest... Thank God..Im not crazy after all.
