    BOYS BETTER
    Boys had better beware
    You could seem to color your hair
    Or on a wig, you already spent
    All the dough to cover your rent
    But not so cool, man if you care
    For all the other boys caught in your bleach-job hair
    And girls better beware
    Boys, you better, you better, yeah
    Boys had better beware
    You could seem a wasted affair
    And like a bitch, you already spent
    All the dough you promised your friends
    But not so cool, man if you care
    For all the other boys caught in your bleach-job hair
    And girls better beware
    Boys, you better, you better, yeah

      @@mankuro It was pretty great, and I took FULL advantage. I’m an L.A. native, and I started going to clubs pretty young.
      I stopped early, too: I had stopped going out completely when I got engaged in 1990, so I completely missed the “Entourage”-era LA scene of the early-90s and most of the music (I didn’t miss The Breeders, tho!).
      By dumb luck, we moved to Seattle in ‘94, when I was about 26 and still young enough to still have fun. Seattle was AMAZING back then. It was so innovative and fresh and intimate, the opposite of LA.
      And now I’m old and boring and okay with it, but it’s fun to look back on it sometimes. They really were some good times: the last, idyllic days just before the Internet.
      I never even saw it coming.

    Why would I listen to this repeatedly? The instrumentals are reminiscent of where I grew up. It's a borderlands between suburbs, farmland, and light industry (including a county airport). People rode motorcycles. Mainly dirt bikes. So all those sounds are in there. It makes me feel secure again and a little 1960s British keyboards. Pennsylvania is Mid-Atlantic, but in Pittsburgh, we got a heavy dose of British Invasion (due to Carnegie Mellon University?).
