about

A fun ride along a path of self-discovery and slow burning maturity, where self-image, sexuality and chance encounters are explored. The drop bass of the kick suggest this trip might get grubby, along with the ever so slightly smutty tone of the bass line. Roguish guitar licks and breezy layered vocals keep things light and carefree though, as you cruise along any given transatlantic boulevard with the top down.

lyrics

Tobacco Lips
By Damn Good Liars

Date night jitters
She uncovers her truth
Not everything matters
She thinks back to her youth
An outfit to make Daddy despair
With heels too high without a care
So many parties
All to be seen
Swarm of admirers
Meat machine

And when she finds her way
Then she’ll have her say
And when she finds her way
Then she’ll have her say

All carefree days
and sunset strips
Wet look high gloss
Tobacco lips
Wet look high gloss
Tobacco lips

Whole self in a hair cut
The confidence in her stride Blasé youth
Glint in her eye
Mascara smudge
Chipped French tip
Broken heal
Sweet relief

All carefree days
and sunset strips
Wet look high gloss
Tobacco lips
Wet look high gloss
Tobacco lips

Scene of the crime
What, who, me?
Confusion, situation
How do you plead?

Branded with experience
Worn with cool defiance
Unexplained by science
Now out on a licence

All carefree days
and sunset strips
Wet look high gloss
Tobacco lips
Wet look high gloss
Tobacco lips

And when she finds her way
Then she’ll have her say
And when she finds her way
Then she’ll have her say
And when she finds her way
Then she’ll have her say
And when she finds her way
Then she’ll have her say
