lyrics

ran outta gas money
gotta make the last tank last
we’re coming for you big blue
and we’re coming up fast

two yellow lines
and a big ol’ sky
full of seagulls
life’s a beach
if you keep to yourself
help nobody else
deliver ‘pon the promise of evil

two cokes in a paper bag
shake it up, jimmy, gimme a drag
this slice of the lot ain’t no slice at all
ah burn it up ‘fore we go into freefall

chorus
it gets hard to sleep
with the floodlights on
bye bye jubilee
bye bye jubilee
when you’re kept you keep
your blinders on
bye bye jubilee
bye bye jubilee

head to toe in the freshest polyester
sweating out another carpark siesta
take another drug test i think i can nail it
ha throw me a fiesta ‘cause i’m bound to fail it  
like a one trick pony in a one horse town
i’m never gonna live this reputation down
life’s a gas
let’s strike the match
and burn it to the ground

chorus 
let the seagulls overhead be angels
they say we’re only safe
when they take our babies away
oh when they lock our babies away 
paint my nails on the hood of the car
hoist the sails and count the stars
jesus might just love a shut-in
but we’re open-air and we’re runnin

chorus x 3

ran out of gas money
gotta make the last tank last
we’re coming for you big blue
and we’re coming up fast

I LIE HERE BURIED WITH MY RINGS AND MY DRESSES
by Backxwash

supported by 4 fans who also own “Bye Bye Jubilee”

Each line on this album is delivered with malice, and each word hits like a mace to the skull. Backxwash uses raw aggression to vent frustration and anguish in a way that evokes an anger with the world rather than a pity for her. Luke Warmwater
