This is another track I sold on ebay during my short stint as a superhero*. Again, the lyrics might be a little mysterious to those of you who were not the highest bidder, but perhaps you’re the type who enjoys mystery… I adore the keyboard solo in the middle. It’s especially laughable since I really can’t play keyboards…
lyrics
Abby's hair is red
And all the things she says to you
Make her seem put off
But her favorite color's blue
Or was it green like her eyes?
This girl was born on the Fourth of July, Nineteen Seventy-Six
Somewhere up North
Hello, Dr. Mom
Hello, Dr. Dad
Where there are no spuds to eat
Does Abby get sad?
And if, Heaven forbid, she should die today
She knows exactly what her stone would say, "It's worse."
Death's more like Hell than Somewhere up North
Abby's hair is red
And all the things she says to you
Make her seem put off
But her eyes are green and blue
The Graze is easily my favorite band in Seattle. Louis O'Callahan's writing style is right up my alley, it doesn't do him justice to say but he could be Kurt Cobain and Jeff Mangum's bastard child. The Way It Is
My Seattle friends Levi and Casey are two of the most talented musicians I know. Check out this wonderful album written and recorded in one weekend... The Way It Is
Seattle upstarts thread their surging power-pop with wistful nostalgia and softly-felt despair, exuding empathy as well as energy. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 24, 2019
