    Lyrics:
    The rain rotted house on the dead end of Baytree
    old bitter lady
    Sits caddy corner to the aftershock from the quarry
    She says “America’s a spoiled child
    that’s ignorant of grief”
    but then she gives out full sizes candy bars on Halloween
    We had to add it to the tab
    to die we’d have to settle up
    but we just go until we can’t
    or burn it down to feel the heat
    The Kletz brothers parents fight in the yard in their underwear
    Bobby and Jimmy sit in the baby pool with lice in their hair
    They have scoliosis from constant slumps in misery
    Flat parts on their crew cuts from layin their heads on their knees
    We had to add it to the tab
    to die we’d have to settle up
    but we just go until we can’t
    or burn it down to feel the heat
    Georgie set fire to acres of cotton settin of model rockets
    The kid from the Jewish family got the preachers kid pregnant
    but they sent her of and we never heard too much more about it
    The sweet talk never lasts and you learn to go on without it
    We had to add it to the tab
    to die we’d have to settle up
    but we just go until we can’t
    or burn it down to feel the heat
    Somebody called the cops on Mandy and her boyfriend
    When they busted in they found that her house was a front for a mob thing
    Pulled guns and cocaine from the drywall wrapped in newspaper
    We gathered in the tall grass and watched unblinking as they cuffed em and hauled em away
    We had to add it to the tab
    to die we’d have to settle up
    but we just go until we can’t
    or burn it down to feel the heat
    when we give up we go
    to sleep

    This song is great. It does do some different and unique things, but you honestly can't deny the plain fact that when it comes to the verse melody specifically, it's a pretty unapologetic and blatant lift of "Waterloo Sunset". I don't mind it - the melody is wonderful and classic. But also good to acknowledge where it came from.

    • @gdub999tub.
      @gdub999tub. Рік тому +1

      I agree completely that this sounds like Kinks/Waterloo Sunset. What I wonder is whether it's a lift, or an uncanny case of reinventing the wheel. Is it possible that this young lady never even heard the Kinks song but came up with the melody on her own - especially because it's based on a very common three-chord (1-5-4) progression)? I really don't know, just wondering... Either way, it is one of the best melodies I have ever heard.
