I'll just slip away and leave you stranded
Murmur on the page and blame the next man
Look the other way and push you to the hard ground
You can build a frame but I don't have to stand it
Your service is rendered, the tables have turned on your high horse, your recourse
And I don't feel a thing for you now
Twisting at the pain, maybe I'm a cold man
But I don't feel your shame, I don't feel a thing now
You'd put me in a cage and I'm not one for begging
So put your tears away, accept it as a let down
You can't move what you are past and you can't lose what you don't have
So you can reach to better plains or find a fool to play these games
Or exercise your growing worth with slights of hand you're making up
And I don't want to let you down

A caustically funny, riff-filled assault on everything that makes this world suck—yup, it's a new record from the legendary Mudhoney. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 9, 2023
Post-punk in the Sonic Youth mold—melody covered by creeping fuzz, anchored by architectural rhythms, with lyrics both abstract and direct. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 5, 2019
