The Silver Jews — San Francisco BC

Los Silver Jews tienen nuevo disco: Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea. Como siempre, lo mejor son las letras. El primer sencillo es una historia de amor, hipsters y crímenes. Aquí les pongo unas coplas padres:

“Romance is the douche of the bourgeoisie”
Was the very first thing she imparted to me

She said “you don’t make enough to provide for me.”
I said “what about the stuff that we quote believe?”

Little, asian, deadly, like a cobra in the shade
Sat in the midst of the smoke that he made

Gene’s talking about insignificant shit
Just like crooks in the movies when they do that bit.

He said the power of metal will never be harnessed.
I thought the wages of metal should be heavily garnished.

Then he came at me with some fist cuisine
I had to duck aside and that was bad for Gene

Listo. [Iv]
