So Too Soon [Live, John Kennedy's XFM Radio Show, London, 2012]

about

This is the one of the live takes we did on John Kennedy's XFM London Radio show back in 2012. We met John that year after our first show at The Great Escape in Brighton, UK. Afterwards, this is what he said:

"Captain Beefheart’s Magic Band sprung to mind as did Tom Waits then the passion of American Music Club’s Mark Eitzel but there was a humour here too; the band smiling at their own strange twists and turns. Jazz, rock’n’roll, folk picking, punk gang vocals and chain gang hollers colliding with singer songwriter nakedness then floating off on Godspeed style sonic journeys. My favourite band. We need to demand them to come back as they are amazing live, really amazing".

lyrics

There are fireworks in front of my house meanwhile I kick out gentles and slacks. Military march covering my desk, celebrating deaths and victories.

So late, too soon.

You’ll die without prices in lottery, ‘cause you bit pencils and chairs in school. A little bit of your codeine in my water. I’ll be dying before your car explode.

And you, standing on the last corner of my neck.

So late, too soon, so too soon.

Your day is back, the book stores are closed and the sun is not even a reason to wake up.
