Seattle歌曲歌词:
Fighting for survival is such a boring Battle
Want to get into my car
I wanna drive out to Seattle
Where the used record stores
Have much better prices
But I don’t have a car
And I don’t have a license
Should I take another walk to the DMV
Get another learners permit with a Picture of me
I’d put it in my wallet
Along with my four dollars
And the condom that’s still in there
That has probably expired
I’d leave home for New York
But New York is where I’m from
I’m just looking for a way
To feel my life has begun
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee
Living in the city
Where I’m working like a walrus
But man I don’t need your money
Man I’m gonna be an artist
Feeling like I wanna do whatever
I feel inside
Put it down on paper
And I’ll hope that people buy it
And my only minor worry
Is how to pay the rent
But that won’t even matter
When I lose my apartment
Then I’ll really have no worries
I’ll be just like a cassette
That you’ve taped up the tabs up
To put something new on it
And when I hit record
God only knows what I will be
And if there is no god
Then it’s a better mystery
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee
Fighting for survival and I guess I must Be winning
And my story is so long
I can’t remember the beginning
Am I an optimist
Or am I a pessimist
If I see a half empty half full cup
Is half full
Of nothingness.
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee

Jeffrey Lewis简介:
by David Jeffries
Underground comic book artist, Moldy Peaches friend and cover designer, and anti-folk musician Jeffrey Lewis was born in New York City in November of 1975. Lewis’ beatnik parents didn’t have a television in the home so comic books and his father’s blues records were early obsessions. Although his first album bought was Whodini’s Escape, high school brought an interest in the Grateful Dead (he went to 40 shows) and Nirvana. After graduating New York State University at Purchase (his senior thesis was on Alan Moore’s graphic novel Watchmen), Lewis started making music on a guitar on loan from his father and was turned on to the more oddball sounds of the Fugs, David Peel & the Lower East Side, and the Godz. 1998 found him playing open mics and releasing Indie-Rock Fortune Cookie, a cassette packaged with one of Lewis’ comic books. A CD-R compiled from the cassette landed in the hands of Rough Trade, courtesy of the recently signed Moldy Peaches, and the label issued The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane and Other Favorites in 2002. An appearance on the Moldy Peaches-compiled Antifolk, Vol. 1 followed, and a second album, It’s the Ones Who’ve Cracked That the Light Shines Through, appeared in 2003. Lewis toured Europe with members of the Moldy Peaches in support of 4 Seasons, a box set featuring a comic book, a DVD, and two 7″ singles. The 2006 album City & Eastern Songs was credited to Jeffrey and his brother Jack while 2007’s 12 Crass Songs featured a dozen songs originally written and performed by the British anarchist punk band Crass.
