Demo of the title track from the upcoming debut full-length from Team Goldie. Features guest vocals from Polar Bear Club vocalist Jimmy Stadt.
Lyrics:
I'm the eternal optimist but I can no longer twist
the words of the world and the purpose they serve to suit my own populace
because the language they speak is all Greek to me.
I converse through heartbeats in my EKGs
trying to spin American nothing into American dreams.
I'm no longer sleeping or napping or Rip Van Winkle-ing as earth turns on its axis.
Tired of spinning my wheels and running place.
Don't want to die on this treadmill, I'm ready to race so
Tonight I'll be going out living.
I wrote a note postmarked next New Year's Day.
It read: "everything turns out ok."
I'm the retrograde Romeo and I just need you to know
everyone in New York's a DJ, LA's an actor, PA's a mess, at least in my mirror.
I'm still searching for some clarity. It's basic Jimmy Cliff with Lasik chasing.
I'm looking for a broad, a bird, a doll, a skirt, a lass, a babe, a dame, a girl
who makes coyote a two syllable word and makes my 40 further than my birth.
I've been told, Billy Joel, that the good die young but
I'm still here so one of us fucked up.
Tonight I'll be going out living.
I wrote a note postmarked next New Year's Day.
It read: "everything turns out ok."
Baby, don't want to grow to be a bitter old man but that's the path that I lead.
you need to come to the UK man :)
