lyrics

What's the deal?
What's concealed?
Oh sweetheart, are you for real
Or is this just another test?

Is tenderness
What this is
Or some clairvoyant pop quiz
On your unspoken requests?

You're unsure
My love's pure
That much I can infer
But I'll need a little help with the rest

You must think I'm capable of reading minds
And bending silverware
But I don't really care
What you keep hidden underground

My dear, I gotta say I feel perfectly fine
Blissfully unaware
If there's something that you'd like to share
You'd better learn to just say it out loud now

What's going on?
Tell me what's wrong
And I'm not literate in palm
So I'll need a straightforward response

'Cause my heart
Won't take part
No, it ain't gonna guess your card
'Cause all it knows is you're all it wants

Every time I let my guard down
You're throwing knives
When I armor up
Your lightning strikes
Nothing that I do or say
Ever quite seems to suffice

The Daiquiris Boston, Massachusetts

Viscerally punky, stylistically eclectic powerpop—the sonic equivalent of a candy apple with a razor inside.
