The Morning Benders – Excuses (Lyrics)
You tried to taste me
And I taped my tounge to the southern tip of your body
Our bones are too heavy to come up
Squished into a single cell of wood
Oooooooh …. Oooooooooh
And I made an excuse
You found another way to tell the truth
I put no one else above us
We’ll still be best friends when all turns to dust
Oooooooh …. da-da-da-da-da
Dum du-dum du-dum du-dum du-du-dum
(repeat)
da-da-da-da-da
(repeat)
We are so smooth now
Our edges are beaten drift wood widdled down
Old bodies slip when they make love
We’ll mine our sparks to shoot us above

The second video was a Staff Pick on Vimeo the other day – that’s how I found the song.. And then, a few days ago, I heard it in an 8tracks mix. Sometimes it takes a second listen to really hear it, you know..
Glad you like it
