It was one of those days I was waiting for dusk, I met a little singer and she had me sussed.
Could tell by her fingers, her shadowy eyes, she was gonna love me and she knew my lies.
But I need her, Mona Lisa, she’s gonna love you and leave you.
But I need her.
She shot me a glance the damage was done, she had a lot of magic and she sent me some.
I took her to the ocean skimming a stone, held her in my arms, she was always, always alone.
Mona Lisa, said I need you, but I need her.
I ran across the country in the back of a van,
I met with her daddy and I asked for her hand,
It’s been ten years since I felt like a man, but now I feel like a boy.
Whoo hoo
I stole a few years I locked her away, my genie in a bottle caught a plane they say.
And now she lies folded in my old notebook, she could be on your shoulder if you ever dare to look.
Mona Lisa, I tell you you’re gonna need her, she’s gonna leave you.

Raw and hooky as heck, “Disaster Preparedness Coloring Book” is all classic, ragged indie sonics and rock-solid melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 3, 2023
