about

I think The Motorcycle Industry is a great band that really captures the spirit of being young and in New York City. When recording Ends Meat, I had basically finished recording this cover of their song before calling singer John Langan to ask his permission to record and release it. Fortunately, he was flattered.

And what do you know--The Motorcycle Industry's killer album Electric Education is available for free download: www.themotorcycleindustry.com/music

lyrics

Amanda, how many songs do I have to write before you call me up, say “Hey, was that one about me? Maybe you’d like to talk. Or maybe you’d like to watch me paint my fingernails on the Goodwill couch. Tiny turquoise elephant, put that cigarette out.”

But I haven’t seen the Hudson in a while, and your apartment always had the best view.

And how’d you get your guitar to sound like that, like the fake metal frets are cutting through the crap that everyone’s singing about these days? If you need me I’ll be on the fire escape.

But you won’t. And I do. Do you remember Halloween? Eating candy on your stoop. Kevin’s friend said he thought I looked cute, and you did too.

And I woke up wet. My saltwater breath would taste good on your legs. And the Amtrak lines split and divide, they are taking me away.
