lyrics
a song came out of a song / came out of nowhere / it was static in dead air / and you sing it as you walk / now you're surrounded unaware(s) / and when they stare at you from suv's / the song it will not care / i could trespass in my house / i will trespass everywhere / and there's a clang beneath the ocean / bears the shape of things to come / and there's a dog with teeth like shrapnel / chasing all who try to run / and the radio hums / what's become of all your children / with their ever changing names / as they choke down anesthetics / and shoot termites in their veins / and the gutter drains / and a woman smiles / and her eyes are closed / and children squirm / in sunday clothes / and we talk to strangers / (the / but) only ones we trust / and time will swim / and water will rust / and we speak to strangers / we turn to dust / in time we'll swim / our water will rust / and a woman smiles / and her eyes are closed / and the children squirm / in their sunday clothes
Released in 2001, “The Convincer” is a gentle gem in the Nick Lowe catalog; an anniversary edition provides opportunity for rediscovery. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2021
