Rainy Day Record

(专辑： The Light In You - 2015)

For the first time in forever
I bought a record for a rainy day
Pretty soon they'll be gone forever
Or at least that's what they say
And when I hear what's turned to gold now
I really wish I had 'turned to stone'
The tone arm moves, the vinyl crackles
And suddenly I'm not alone

For the first time in forever
I lay the needle down inside the groove
And for the first time in forever
I hold my breath waiting for side two

Bands crash and people cry
Everyone here is really shook
Trying hard, the kids can't shake it
You can't fool ol' Peter Hook

They really want to but they just can't fake it
Trying hard to look old and worn
Facebook butterflies flap their wings and
Suddenly a Brooklyn band is born

For the first time in forever
I lay the needle down inside the groove
And for the first time in forever
I hold my breath waiting for side two

For the first time in forever
I lay the needle down inside the groove
And for the first time in forever
I feel like getting lost in it too

Translator, Wire, Dead Can Dance
A needle on a record's a second chance
Talk Talk, Felt, Romeo Void
Give me The Fall, "I'm totally wired"
Splat Cats, Opal, Terry Riley
Kaka de Luxe and Derek and Clive
I'm so bored of four on the floor
Bring me the ear of Thurston Moore

Popul Vuh, Agitpop
Elliott Smith, The Dream Syndicate

For the first time in forever
I bought a record for a rainy day
Pretty soon they'll be gone forever
Or at least that's what they say

For the first time in forever
I lay the needle down inside the groove
And for the first time in forever
I hold my breath waiting for side two

For the first time in forever
I lay the needle down inside the groove
And for the first time in forever
I'm hearing bands like they're all brand new
