Na-Na Na Na-Na
Let’s not think of this as time to kill
Save formality and stay until you can
Shake your bodies not your hands
(Less introduction)
There are better ways of getting close to you
It’s all going to plan
We could be in heaven already it took so long to pack
Such a heavy load
We’ll drop what we’re carrying when we see those gates
Oh, how we’ll stand up next to him
Take it all in, move it down the road
Let me tell you that’s a crazy way to live under a rock
As paparazzi for the King of Life like some old king of pop
By now he’s washed his hands a billion times
He’s long stopped listening
Mama you’ll be lucky if he takes the time to blow you a kiss
Have you tried the sweetest wines?
Got up to the greatest heights?
Have you seen what nature has made?
Because that’s what it takes
I might be out my realm of expertise but I have a hunch
If pleasure’s physical only on earth in heaven it’s a bust
How can you be prepared to spend eternity up there?
When mama you complain you’re tired, you’re tired, you’re bored
Of living down here
Do tell how so many people from
Different centuries get along
Old enemies suddenly friends when lovers
Lose their memory
Tide rolling no fooling
This love must end
Miracle it has not yet
When else do we respond, “yes” to the demand
To love someone we have not met

released November 22, 2015
Justin Iaquinta, Dan McCaffrey, Nick Riviezzo
Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
Welsh art-rock group HMS Morris make music full of plot twists; explosive, colorful rhythms can turn into shadowy introspection on a dime. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 22, 2020
