"You want a medal for the things you've done
but if you really did a damn thing
we would've gave you one"
-Head Automatica
I love this CD... it's freaking incredible. I mean I adore GlassJAW but Head Automatica is just so good. It's tough to not want to dance... wahoo.
"I see a preacher with a secret
And he dare not make a sound
I see the smoke and fire
And the market burning down
I see a tulip on the grave
Of a lover who confessed
I'm a soldier and a poet
But I'm a dancer at best"
-Head Automatica
"She's got the anger of a suffragette but she's crying a river
She's got the smile of a side show clown but she stands and delivers
I'm drinking heavily to slur my stroll and get some rhythm
I'm on the prowl but who would've thought that I could pick'em"
haha... this is awesome. i know -few- people who know head automatica. and i'm talking like a handful.
most people who know them only know beating heart baby, not that that's a bad thing, but it's nice to know someone who actually -listens- to them and doesnt just repeat one song over and over.
Hahaha... nobody i know knows who they are let alone want to so i've been starved save my sister... but she doesn't count. one of my favorites... like i can't get enough of this song is "i shot william h. macy"
i mean shit... the vocalization of those lines is just incredible.
