Law of Matinées
from Horn Of The Town by Tendon Levey
lyrics
Spinning around attached to my back
Spinning around
Spinning around on stage
On stage attached to my back, it's that
His sound comes out when I open my mouth
My mouth comes out when I open his guitar case
And then I say
“What happens when the body dies but the parts that know you're alive stay alive?”
Were I not to be bound by the Law of Matinées
And not to be bound to an unpalatable partner
I would would do many shows
I would show people my pieces of my whip
I would show them what we've done
And I can't ever have that
What I can do is move back to a place where effort is acknowledged
A place where I no longer have to explain myself
Spinning around
Spinning around on stage
On stage attached to my back, it's that
His sound comes out when I open my mouth
My mouth comes out when I open his guitar case
And then I say
“What happens when the body dies but the parts that know you're alive stay alive?”
Were I not to be bound by the Law of Matinées
And not to be bound to an unpalatable partner
I would would do many shows
I would show people my pieces of my whip
I would show them what we've done
And I can't ever have that
What I can do is move back to a place where effort is acknowledged
A place where I no longer have to explain myself
