It's My Day
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
I just showed up here
I can't be to blame
I can only be to blame
if I stay the same
if I stay the same
and all the girls say
it's my day
it's my day
Whose day?
My brain cannot contain itself
it's yelling through my spine
I'm overjoyed
heretofore I was insecure
being so high
so height I would avoid
oh boy, oh boy
But it's my day
it's my first day
on the earth
stay like today
like my birthday
like my sure thing
it's my day
and all the girls say
it's my day
it's my day
I went to church with my gramma
Ma'am, I do not believe, but I rejoice!
an' maybe my void and your lord are the same
so save a seat for your boy
'cause it's my day
it's my first day
on the earth
stay like today
like my birthday
like my sure thing
it's my day
and all the angels say
it's my day
it's my day
Smarter man than I
said sha nananannana
happier woman said
hallelujah
I just showed up here
I can't be to blame
I can only be to blame
if I stay the same
if I stay the same
it's my day
it's my day - Track Name: Wicked Walk

Wicked Walk
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
You and your wicked walk
just you and your wicked walk
and me
Dear pointy boots
come steal my legs
get get me forward doorward
gas station shades
conceal my face
let let me slide out hide out
'cause later lady under half a moon I want to walk to you, I want to flock to you
and a little later under half a moon I want to doctor you, I need a doctor too 'cause
I've got an itty bitty phobia, was hoping you could set me straight, medicate, meditate, anything
help
oh, girl,
you know you're no help
yea
you
and
your wicked walk
sparking the midnight streets
yea
you
and
your wicked walk
just you and your wicked walk
and me
you're breaking necks
all through the station
ladadadadadeedum
my every hair
stands in ovation
ladadadadadeedum
'cause later lady under half a moon I want to prowl with you, I want to prowl with you
and later lady under half a moon I want howl with you, I want to howl at you, 'cause
I got an itty bitty phobia, was hoping you could set me straight, medicate, meditate, anything
help
oh girl,
you know you're no help
yea
You and your wicked walk
coming round the curve
you and your wicked curves
coming round the walk
there ain't nothing square about you, no nothing square about you at all - Track Name: Like Yesterday

Like Yesterday
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
My home won't long stay in your driveway
my home's a-honking for to carry me away
so I turn your lips astray
I turn your lips astray
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
Since all my candles fit on one cake
took from my folks all the advantage I could take
repaid them with a wave
repaid them with a wave
and I made like yesterday
like yesterday
See, I'm borrowed from much greater men, sir
but the backslash youth don't give two damns though, for my lender
so I bow upon their stage
said, I bow upon your stage
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
This could be for good
This could be for good
What if this is good?
Is this for good?
good
Our Shell refinery by midnight
rivaled in beauty only by the stars' own light
so I drop my eyes away
said, we drop our eyes away
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
I serve one purpose on this dying earth
to keep her turning by my wheels upon her dirt
for your sake, I cannot stay
for our sake, I cannot stay
must make like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
My home won't long stay in your driveway
my home's still honking for to carry me away
so I turn your lips astray
said, I turn your lips astray
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
three, four
like yesterday
I said like yesterday
like yesterday
and I make like yesterday
day after yesterday, say
day after yesterday
just like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday - Track Name: Here's to Love (acoustic)

Here's to Love (acoustic)
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
The first had scars in her eyebrows
just like yours
Woke the neighbors with another
I hope you heard
One more on all fours, forehead to floor
like yours once was
and I hope you heard
One with breath all menthol
just like yours
Tangled in taxis with another
I hope you heard
The sun's exposed my clothes scattered across more
bedroom floors than just yours
And I hope you heard
And ah-ah-ah-ah-I-I
I hope it gets
back to you
back to back to you
oh-oh-oh
back at you
Ah-ha-ha I hope it gets back to you
it gets you, it gets to you
My gun show hoodie is history
it's just like yours
Goodwill's got your mixtapes
I hope you heard
Kept the ticket stubs in the bottom drawer
mine and yours
I don't care
And I hope you heard
Love moves like a car crash
Love soothes like a whiplash
… toast to lost romance
So hoist high that empty glass
Here's to love
Here's to love
Here's to love
Here's to luv - Track Name: I Tried

I Tried
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
I was born yesterday
and I will die long before tomorrow
staying put, there's nothing to it
but we make staying in love look so hard though
I I tried so hard
I tried only to find
it's easy, so easy,
love's so easy you would not believe me
I was dead
yesterday, long before I met you
just a breath
is all we get
to hold it like just once it won't slip through
Who would believe in love?
who would believe me?
believe in love
I was born yesterday
believe me, it's easy
oh, now, do you believe me?
You won't believe
would you believe?
I was born yesterday - Track Name: Needs and Wants

Needs and Wants
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
Needs and wants
do you even know the difference?
would it make a drop of difference
even if you did?
Needs and wants
do you even know the difference?
would it make you so indifferent
even if I did?
Needs and wants
sort it out
please just once
know what counts
everything comes down to
our needs and wants
Needs and wants
do you even know the difference?
would it make a lick of difference
even if I did?
She said said said to me
you beh' beh 'beh 'believe
oh please
don't talk bout talking please
just talk talk talk to me
please just once

50 Altered States
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
ooo- 50 altered states
slouched into the couch
been staying up too late
ooo- I like to complain
yea, I like to complain
this television's boring
holes into my brain
bad bad tan lines will tell
who's back from hell
bad tan tan lines will tell
who's back from hell
ooo- united altered states
poured onto the floor
been waking up too late
ooo- I like to deny
yea, I like to disguise
the underground is boring
tunnels through my eyes
bad bad tan lines will tell
who's back from hell
bad tan tan lines will tell
who's back from hell
bad tan line lines will tell
who's back from hell
bad headband tans will tell
who's back from
5 Mississippi
every tooth
back and forth
they crowd in my head
grin when I'm dead
inside-
out. slide.
you escape
oo- oo- Divided altered states
binge into the fridge
oo- oo- 50 altered states
all like to complain
bad bad tan lines will tell
who's back from hell
bad tan tan lines will tell
who's back from hell
bad tan line lines will tell
who's back from hell
bad two-piece tans will tell
who's back from hell
bad G-string tans will tell
who's back from hell
bad fake bake tans will tell
who's packed for...
back for hell
back for hell

If Nothing Else
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
If this is perfect as it's gonna get
you bet you better bet it's for the best
no one gets us like we get us
we’re such a mess
yeaaaah
we make it rough
then we make it right
turn it around
this mess is ours
can't put it down
if nothin else
hell we are good we are good at this
at least
if nothin else
if nothin else
turn it around
this mess is love
can't put it down
if nothin else
when nothin sells
hows it lasting
thanks for asking
very well
If nothing else
we don't need help
their petty talk and
pity looks
can stuff 'emselves
If nothing else
there's nothing more
to the world than
here behind the doggy door
our wolf can come and go
we'll come and then some more
if nothing else
we’re good at this and
that’s enough for me and her - Track Name: Nothing's Going On

Nothing's Going On
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
I'm older than I've ever been
I'm older than I've ever been
but I'm younger than I'll ever be again
either I been missing something
or there's nothing going on
so much nothing going on
what the hell is going on?
either I been missing something
or nothing's been going on
so much nothing going on
I'm more broke than I've ever been
yeah, I'm more broke than I've ever been
but my purse is fatter than she'll ever be again
either all has been for no reason
or they're all putting me on
are you all putting me on?
what the hell is going on?
either all has been for no reason
or you're all putting me on
either someone shot the Duke
or I'm talking scrambled eggs
either I been let down easy
or these shoes done stole my legs
I'm wiser than I've ever been
I'm wiser than I've ever been
but more full of it
full of it
more full of shit than I'll ever be again
either I been lying less often
or I'm getting skilled at being wrong
yeah, I'm getting good at being wrong
what the hell is going on?
either I been lying less often
or I'm getting skilled at being wrong
and they're all putting me on
and there's nothing going on
what the hell is going on?
either I been missing something
or nothing. - Track Name: My Doe, Part 1 (acoustic)

My Doe, Part 1 (acoustic)
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
By first snow
by first snow my Doe ought to have a ring
Lord, I, I've been saving
but Hope is on a rope, Hope's on a frayed rope
and I can count her ribs
from our kitchenette window
I'm scared and unprepared
she's starting to show
I know
my Doe's a little bit psycho
but she look alright with the lights low
and my Doe wear her head inside out
but my Doe know that I don't mind though
when we found Hope
when we brought home Hope
last of the litter down the way
cloudy eyes cataract grey
we never said but both knew
adopting her meant more than any ceremony
your mama's waiting for
I'm scared and unprepared
she's starting to show
I know ...
my Doe, my dear, my female
she sell retail by the CVS pharmacy store
