I bought a six month ticket to the south pacific
I bought some vitamin c’s and some floral-print shirts
I got a storage locker filled I gave my records to my brother
Man it felt so good to put my notice in at work
My friends threw me a party they were all so kind
I made a toast to Indonesia and my uncle started crying
I landed in Jakarta my money belt and jeans
Ten million people and me walking in my sleep
New wave synth pop music everywhere
Pitch corrected music in the south pacific air
I saw you in a movie once but I generalize
I wonder if this number is even worth dialing
Kamu turis yang membosankan. Apa yang kamu harapkan?
Sweating through my visor hotel room on fire
Hours in the sun when my shuttle blew a tire
I slept right through the weekend and I dreamed like I was high
I woke up in the bathtub and I wished you were beside me
I’m a tourist in the streets here I‘m a tourist back at home
In a cab or in a crowd I’m completely on my own
New wave synth pop music everywhere
Pitch corrected music in the south pacific air
I saw you in a movie once but I generalize
I wonder if this number is even worth dialing
Kamu turis yang membosankan. Apa yang kamu harapkan?
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
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
