lyrics

I got them pills and e-numbers and I keep them in a sack
I hide my china dog in a chocolate frog and I painted it all but black
And if you keep me out drinking, ill fall on the one
And if I make it past midnight, I climb walls just for fun

But if I’m riding high on Tuesday morning
I tell you a gratis fact
You better slap my face and get my coat and tell me
Hit the road jack, hit the road jack

Drinking in with my friends on top of a hill
When I was just in my teens
Grabbing chocolate bars dream of flying to mars
Dreaming about mashed potato and baked beans
Well miles got old and Coltrane got dead
But playing em don’t make the bread
You want to stay cool wear some funky shades
But that don’t get you fed

Well I've grown up now I’m taller,
I’ve even cut my hair
Ain’t got no superman symbol
In my underwear, in my underwear

Ain’t got no leather jacket
And I know how to play
I might look stupid, but I am
And I ain’t got nothing to say
Singing aiko aiko in my Toyota Aygo
And the parking’s always free
Ain’t got no motor to brag about
And it don’t even belong to me

I don’t want to write a banger
For hipsters in a pub
I’d rather sit on a goldmine
Or overdose in a grubby tub
And join the 27 club

I was initially drawn toward Vulfpeck's earlier instrumental tracks. This album effectively earned my respect for their vocal works. Listening to "Running Away" and "Baby I Don't Know" is like uncovering buried gems from the 1970's. "Hero Town" sounds like an instrumental outtake from Three Dog Night's "Hard Labor" album with deeper bass, earning my respect for Jack Stratton's mixing skills. I would love to see him do a masterclass for mixing in the Vulf Conservatory. t0cktock
