lyrics

My head is clear and my thoughts are light from the long dark hall down a dozen flights
Young and strong and free
Ignorant and white in these new post post-post-post modern times
We’re littered with holes
Rays from both poles
Pulses fired from a distant remote
Riding no hands in debt a few grand, over the ridge down the hill to coast and pretend

Language is colourful
Your kids are wonderful
Change feels impossible
Market unstoppable
Stock blowing out a storm blowing in
With bullet sized hale
Huge folds of skin
Afraid of each other right to the end
Depressed and alone in a huge crowd of friends

Language is colourful
Your kids are wonderful
Change feels impossible
Market unstoppable
Conditions optimal
I feel just terrible
News is all horrible
It’s all unbearable

It’s crisp and cold when systems change
We’re safe and warm and entertained
A century of protest some social gain
Out of idle hands and swirling down the drain
Photos of earth beamed back from the edge
See the past and future in the infrared
From the microscopic drones to the horse-drawn sled
To the waking dead of his head on a bed going off his meds

Language is colourful
Your kids are wonderful
Change feels impossible
Market unstoppable
Conditions optimal
I feel just terrible
News is all horrible
It’s all unbearable

Anthem +3
by FATHER JOHN MISTY

supported by 6 fans who also own “Colourful”

Father John Misty is so good to listen to when I want to relax. My cat used to seem to like the music too, and we would both chill and listen to the FJM vinyls I own. This album on bandcamp was a nice FJM treat. Michelle May

Coriky

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
