Band: That Handsome Devil

Album: A City Dressed in Dynamite

Song: 02 - Wintergreen

LYRICS:

Her face had a run-in with a fist

Or a steering wheel

You could hear her coming

From the click of her plastic heels

There's signs of life and you're just standing here

Behind your eyes there's no one anywhere

Sleepin' on a subway

City up above me

Dreamin' up the worst to be saw

Bettin' on that someday

Wakin' up in someplace

Believe me, baby, I know

It holds you tight then it lets you go

Didn't look back, just left it alone

Grabbed my coat and my hat

Let the train take me home

Sleepin' on a subway

City up above me

Runnin' since the day I was born

Bettin' on that someday

Wakin' up in someplace

Believe me, baby, I know

Howlin' at me tellin' me she's sick

And she needs some help

Old woman suckin' on a dick

For a dollar bill

There's signs of life and you're just standing here

Behind your eyes there's no one anywhere

Sleepin' on a subway

City up above me

Dreamin' up the worst to be saw

Bettin' on that someday

Wakin' up in someplace

Believe me, baby, I know

It's that little piece of nothin' that won't let you go

Didn't look back, just left it alone

Grabbed my coat, my hat

Let the train take me home

Sleepin' on a subway

City up above me

Runnin' since the day I was born

Bettin' on that someday

Wakin' up in someplace

Believe me, baby, I know

I've been livin' under bridges stayin'

Where I was only visiting

Where neighbours drink the Listerine

To keep their livers clean

And wintergreen

I've been livin' under bridges stayin'

Where I was only visiting

Where neighbours drink the Listerine

To keep their livers clean

And wintergreen

Fantastic lyrics, anyone living in a city can and should understand the meaning of this song, seeing it on our streets day-in, day-out.

It sounds like it'd be on a grindhouse soundtrack

They're (I'd say) A bit off Jazz, Psychedelic rock, experimental rock and R&B on occasion

I love that the way he sings makes the lyrics indecipherable but creates two or three lyrics that all fit. I really hope he does it on purpose.

I always thought it was: Standing on a subway/City up above me/ Dreaming up the words to a song Guess it could work either way. One of my faves from THD!

its like the singing is reggae and the instrumentals have elements of jazz blues and rock.

I hear "His eyes have died" instead of "There's signs of life".

@TheJayLeHol You can get most of their songs on iTunes, just like any recorded band pretty much. I can understand pirating it but I bought their albums just cause... they deserve it.

@FRr3AkOnALEaSh Godforbid describes his band's music as "Fringe Pop". But the genre really changes with every song. There's not one genre you could staple on this music. It's just too goddamn unique.
