lyrics
Danny looked at me sideways
Through a smoke haze
Sipping vitamins and whiskey on ice
It’s funny how the veneer fades
As it degrades
And you’re finally in front of a face
The coldest shoulder
Is this a bad time
I think he’s over
The let’s be friend line now
I am feeling like an odd man
Who’s silenced the room to some effect now
I’m figuring it out
Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
There are things that I can tell
No Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
Does my face ring a bell?
Black and White on a Sunday
Was the one day
That I would give the benefit of the doubt
Remember me I’m the good friend
Of the last trend
With whom you shared the stage on several dates
Was I not charming?
Now that’s alarming
I guess he’s over
The let’s be friends line now
I am feeling like an odd man
Who’s silenced the room to some effect now
I’m figuring it out
Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
There are things that I can tell
No Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
Does my face ring a bell?
Through a smoke haze
Sipping vitamins and whiskey on ice
It’s funny how the veneer fades
As it degrades
And you’re finally in front of a face
The coldest shoulder
Is this a bad time
I think he’s over
The let’s be friend line now
I am feeling like an odd man
Who’s silenced the room to some effect now
I’m figuring it out
Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
There are things that I can tell
No Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
Does my face ring a bell?
Black and White on a Sunday
Was the one day
That I would give the benefit of the doubt
Remember me I’m the good friend
Of the last trend
With whom you shared the stage on several dates
Was I not charming?
Now that’s alarming
I guess he’s over
The let’s be friends line now
I am feeling like an odd man
Who’s silenced the room to some effect now
I’m figuring it out
Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
There are things that I can tell
No Danny doesn’t like me
Oh well
Does my face ring a bell?

about
Before Dawn Appleton, Wisconsin
“A hook and synth-laden wall of sound decorated with memorabilia from 70s punk rock, 80s new wave, 90s club music and, well, just about anything else you can think of! With a timeless showmanship and knack for comedic timing, this two-person outfit is guaranteed to start a full-on dance party with or without you.” – Shawn Petsche, Sled Island Music Festival Promoter ... more
