lyrics
I started out in Cincinnati and I ended up on the moon. I never saw this coming, but what can you do when that face that's staring back at you just melts you to your soul? It's nice to know I've got one. Please can we go? I know you're taken and that's fine. Just give me some time and I'll make you mine. You're my east texas angel. We'll swing across that honky tonk hardwood floor. We'll get sand in our boots and we'll two step until we're sore. You've got a friend in me but I'd rather be much more. I can give up the nightlife. I can give up the booze. If I absolutely have to you can choose, but I'd rather be out with you hanging at the bars, drinking lots of bourbon and playing our guitars. It's cool. You're here. It might be a couple of years but I'll make you mine. I always go back to that dock on the lake where we dangled our feet and sang songs of heartache. Waylon, Willie, Loretta and Emmy Lou. I'll sing anything you want me to, because I'm yours, you ain't mine, don't take too much time if you don't mind. If give you all my love and then I'll give you more.

Iron Chic's narrative, some of the most aware & conscientious lyrics you will find in punk. The music is just as damn good... "There's no answers, so take a guess & make up the rest" "I couldn't stand to watch you die, so I died first, that's how I survived" 🌸💀🌸💀🌸
