Eyes flit like birds around a bloated body
All skittish and florid
Scratching at the cracks for scraps of something bigger
But Big never comes
Days after nights, on such heroic doses
Man, you look so ghostly
When you snake your head around the door
and beg for what's left.
Yeah, I’m legitimate with an asterisk
Built it up from nothing
And some private investments I could hardly say no to
Can you knock the hustle?
When the hustle is this fucking muscular
The crowd they agree
A hulking testament to sleaze and debasement
All bets are off
Steph wakes up with his eyes swollen shut
No recollection between the bus stop and the pouding throb
But there’s magic in the murk
There’s glamour in the mystery
Of how two grand just goes missing
Its dirty work but someone’s got to do it
I for one and proud
Of all the strung out loopholes
We somehow slipped in through
All bets are off

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
