pela appreciation day

dear friends,

listening to a new pela remix (via brooklyn vegan) has me remembering how much i loved this band when they opened for rainer maria. they are proving to be the perfect accompaniment to gender and american religious history. that is to say, these songs are the only thing that are keeping me from falling asleep.

and also, "don't just stand there, tell me i'm something" is one of the greatest lyrics in the history of ever.

pela-lost to the lonesome

pela-the trouble with river cities

to the working,
cam

hey cam i have to say that the lyrics to you had time by ani difranco are like the best ever...and here they are just to prove it lol Tash :)

how can i go home
with nothing to say
i know you're going to look at me that way
and say what did you do out there
and what did you decide
you said you needed time
and you had time

you are a china shop
and i am a bull
you are really good food
and i am full
i guess everything is timing
i guess everything's been said
so i am coming home with an empty head

you'll say did they love you or what
i'll say they love what i do
the only one who really loves me is you
and you'll say girl did you kick some butt
and i'll say i don't really remember
but my fingers are sore
and my voice is too

you'll say it's really good to see you
you'll say i missed you horribly
you'll say let me carry that
give that to me
and you will take the heavy stuff
and you will drive the car
and i'll look out the window and make jokes
about the way things are

how can i go home
with nothing to say
i know you're going to look at me that way
and say what did you do out there
and what did you decide
you said you needed time
and you had time
