lyrics

Daddy, it’s a warm one, got you on the telephone
Gotta figure out why the power in the neighborhood’s all gone
How’d I get flies in the cockpit, pushing on the envelopes down in the basement
Got me on the medicine, just a couple milligrams, god, it’s just a little too late
Dipping in the deep end, thinking how it could have went
Only takes a thimble-full to make us into has-beens

So whatever, we tend to oversell
No wonder we confide in someone else
Never getting any lighter
Just content with getting higher, now

Breaking into dreamland, Hoosier in the quicksand
Wasn’t even under the tent, but he should have been
Reuben, get around, golden rule breakdown, waiting on the word to deliver to the homebound
Got another last chance thanks to the fact that I can hear you coming this way
Everybody’s handprints left in the cement
Turn yourselves in for the cash and the conscience

Steals the Hits Off Country Beauties
by Mike Adams At His Honest Weight

supported by 12 fans who also own “Golden Rule Breakdown”

It takes its lack of seriousness seriously in the best kind of way--brilliant, unpredictable choices for this outstanding artist to cover with the likes of Roseanne Cash, Mary Chapin Carpenter, etc. All this Indiana gem is missing is a Jann Browne cover... Jake Stebner

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley

Who Will You Believe
by Pernice Brothers

supported by 10 fans who also own “Golden Rule Breakdown”

I'm so excited for the full release of this album. These two preview tracks are wonderful. "December in Her Eyes" is so slinky and moved me so much I slid out of my chair listening to it. Thoughtful writing and gorgeous, captivating music--this sounds like an amazing artist firing on all cylinders. Damon Dorsey
