18 - The Verlaines - Doomsday

[@jmckenzie962]

NZ music always seems to be ahead of the curve. From the Dunedin Sound preceding 90s indie, to Lorde preceding most of the minimalist pop of the late 2010's.

Yeah, well I won't change for you even if you think I talk too loud If it wasn't for your playfulness I'd cauterize your useless mouth When conversation is a hand grenade, the pin's on your finger I can only try and play it down. You double the wager Then you push me over. I hit my head on the table Funny way to get through Maybe it's doomed If it's doomed OK, when is doomsday? Later? Some other time? Tomorrow? Yeah you're finally sick and tired of the same old ways Sick of rolling round a piece of ground you're off to find the hay Yeah well I know you hate my music and you think that I should throw it away But I've got nothing to hold onto but the dreary shit i always play I don't know what on earth I was seeing I always knew it had to end. I didn't start believing The writing's never on the wall, it covers the ceiling I ain't gonna persuade you to say, you to say... Later. Some other time. Tomorrow. Yeah, you're finally sick and tired of the same old ways Sick of rolling round a piece of ground you're off to find the hay. You've the eyes of evil, they fail to laugh. Even trying to console they mock, they tear you in half.
