    •Please be generous if you can: We stupidly did not plan this pre-order for a bandcamp Friday when all proceeds go to artists. We want to honor the advertised price, but if you can round up to $50, it will help makeup the fees. If you can't, that's totally fine and cool! And if you are struggling to afford the regular price, contact us. We will make it happen!

lyrics

I'd follow you most anywhere
I'll wear your badge and cut my hair
I'm sick inside but they don't care
it's not so hard now

watch the mods shake their knees
bounce a soul for pedigree
all alone shoot those looks at me
count on,
that it will happen in its own strange way

I'm tired of wanting what I don't have
fuck you for flaunting your version of cool
he wants the birthday girl wrapped in his hand
but it will happen in its own strange way

girls with glasses rule the bar
strike their matches on a moving car
"and if I had an acoustic guitar"
well, you know

I watch the future in a chair
in a pavilion at the world's fair
pop songs come when the peasants care
I hope that it will happen in its own strange way

I'm tired of wanting what I don't have
fuck you for flaunting your version of cool
you want the birthday girl wrapped in your hand
when it will happen in its own strange way

I'm tired of wanting what I don't have
fuck you for flaunting your version of cool
she has the birthday girl wrapped in her hand
but it will happen in its own strange way
