Based on a true story

lyrics

Oh golden boy
So charming
Your hands so lively
But your lust untimely 
 
Brunette and blonde,
So tempting
But just one is your girl
(And she’s quite possessive)
 
And so shame on you
You broke the last taboo as you were
Hoping to get a blonde to kiss you
But you got a brunette
And a slap
 
It’s all red and it hurts so bad because of the slap
 
Hey man, you were so confident, but then
You see: hubris, that’s the name
You grew too bold, and now your cheek’s red
‘Cause of the slap
 
Allow me to explain with my own words
How I got involved in this regrettable situation
You’re not so cool as you think
Well I had a tough day
Oh poor thing!
And as it wasn’t enough I met that blonde
Oh such a bad day, a tough day (not cool!)
Yeah but let me explain:
That girl has always turned me on
And by the way, that night I drank too much
And under those circumstances
I tend to act like a… How would you say?
Like a jerk
There’s no need to insult!
Please!
I mean: you were there with your girlfriend!
Flirting with another girl right next to your girlfriend!
Got it. Now can I go on? 
Where were we?
Right: your attempt to cuckold. Talk!
So: we’re at the bar,
My girl is there and she’s the most beautiful girl in town
Yeah, got it
But the blonde showed up
And so what?
Well…
There we go…
I was misunderstood
Sure…
(Besides, my girl’s temperament is pretty wild)
Ok, can we get to the point?
What point?
You know what, when you get slapped
Hey!
Did it hurt? Did it hurt so bad when you got slapped?
Oh golden boy
You failed
Five purple fingers
On your pretty face
 
Blonde and brunette
It’s too much
Warm tears are streaking
Down your red cheek.

Our songs follow unpredictable paths: sometimes they emerge from complex compositional strategies, sometimes they’re just driven by the desire to walk through harmonies, vocal arabesques, instrumental unisons and phases. ... more
