about

"Jaunty yet absolutely creepy...menacingly charming." -New York Music Daily

official music video: youtu.be/byH9r0okMbU

lyrics

The air is still, the moon a yellow fingernail
It smells like gin beneath the junipers
A scraping sound, shovel in the muddy ground
I hope you thought to bring a change of shoes

Listen dear, we have a situation here
Someone’s picking up what we put down
Oh my word, I got it from a little bird
It might be better if we're not around

You're a murderer, what you gonna do
I'm a murderer too
I'm a murderer, say it cause its true
You're a murderer too

Your pouty lip, chewing on your fingertip
A troubled look across your face
Narrow squint did we wipe the fingerprints
How can we be sure we left no trace

Sin or crime, I think we might have crossed a line
I fear my dear there is no turning back
Do you recall the moment when we lost it all
A clenched fist going slack
