lyrics

Pot belly smokestack
(come out, come out and meet the gang)
His thin wife is a coat rack
(come on, come on and play the game)
My yellow eyes scan the smokey air
to flag down my ride with silver hair
Who sits inhaling the trashcan
and comes out to dull his brain

Ignore what they say and maybe one day it'll kill you
it's been killing me

Slurring irrelevant stories
of grandeur in your younger years of fame
My wit sharp as a thumbtack
get impaired, clear the air and shake the rain

Ignore what they say and maybe one day it'll kill you
it's been killing me

Cut the lights cue the laughtrack
(come out, come out and see the shame)
My poor wallet is empty
but my stomach and my liver are so full

about

Telyscopes Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

"Since 2012, Telyscopes has molted through one reinvention after another--shedding layers of lo-fi psychedelia, chamber pop, jazz, and electronica like cocoons as the project grows more legs, prettier wings, or sharper mandibles. The lifeblood remains the same: offbeat lyrics and striking melodies. Often ingenious--never typical."
