lyrics

GONE

She's the kinda girl always looks excellent
Holes in jeans a Cleveland accent
Pretty little teeth, a terrible dancer
You can roll that top down drive a little faster
Mean as a rumor, beautiful at breakfast
All she is now is gone

She is gone, She is gone
All she is now is gone

Half an hour late, not really listening
She's as fragile as nitro glycerin
Sweeter than Oreos, a fine little liar
Melt your mouth her tongue's on fire
Make a priest kick a hole in a stained glass window
And all she is now is gone

She is gone, she is gone
All she is now is gone

She's as brief as an inkling
And she don't use big words
But you'll watch her laugh at what you're thinking
Before she's even heard

She looked good on my arm and better on another's
But walking away she reminds of my mother
I wish I'd spent more, I wish I'd spent it sooner
But she always had a knack for betting on the losers
Now I'm back in the pack, way out of the money
And all she is now is gone

Big Happy Crowd Hoboken, New Jersey

Big Happy Crowd explores a skewed version of Americana, customized with touches of lo-fi, alt-country, antifolk, old-timey death ballads, folk-rock, drones, surf music and cranky Tin Pan Alley swing.

Big Happy Crowd recommends:

Turn Into
by Jay Som

Kind of like Liz Phair if she'd listened to more Shoegaze. No bad cuts. Endearingly lo-fi but never cliche or trendy. Good songwriting too, which is something waaaaay too many musicians forget about. Big Happy Crowd

We Already Have Birds That Sing
by Life in a Blender

A throbbing muscle of crafty rock fronted by a grumpy office worker who resembles Charlie Brown in middle age. Awesome stuff. Big Happy Crowd
