The sun it recedes in Indiana
When the nighttime hits oh that's that time that i wanna
have her confidence and her curiosity
but i lack the sense and it is baffling me
how after 31 years I'm still light years behind
Agnes is this girl I know
who has got complete command of her entire world
and I assume I know what I'm doing
The bigger it gets the more depressing it is little daughter
and you've gotta keep kicking if you're gonna keep that head above water
but you'll deliver us from mediocrity,
this lack of sense and it is baffling me
how after 31 years I'm still light years behind
Agnes is this girl I know
who has got complete command of her entire world
and I assume I know what I'm doing
and I assume I know what I'm doing
you've got these parents that restore my faith
that we're gonna make it out of this Hell okay
and they'll shower you with love, unconditional
you're gonna bring these people to the polls
because you've got the strength and the grace to change how we all see it
oh, Agnes what do I do?
The UK punks' capacity for merging the personal, political, and parochial is so well-developed that it borders on the alchemical. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 7, 2022
