your pretty black bow
Three things you should know before reading about this week’s song:
1.) I LOVE the EELS. They are amazing.
2.) E is the primary member of the band, and he is amazing.
3.) A capo is a clamp one attaches to a guitar to raise the pitch.
With that being said, I was listening to the EELS, and it seems that E always capos his guitar pretty high. I thought I’d try it higher up than usual just to change the sound a little. I wrote part of this in the morning and the rest very late at night. Traffic noise, city noise, etc. can be annoying, but I was thinking about where everyone was going and why they were making these noises. And then it didn’t seem so bad. Maybe it’s just the holiday spirit or something.
hey there darling, let’s go for a walk tonight
we can wear caps or earmuffs
we can wear jackets and warm stuff
i wouldn’t worry about it being too cold
hey there darling, let’s go for a walk tonight
there is light and plenty of sidewalk
and a coffee shop, we can get something hot
i wouldn’t worry about it being too cold
nice hair darling, i like your pretty black bow
in your blonde hair, your long bangs
the way you dress, the words you say
i wouldn’t worry about us being too close
you can almost see the dark sky
if you’re in the mood for a long drive
and the city noises maybe aren’t so bad
maybe someone’s on their way to see you right now
that’s where all these cars they go
taking people to see people we don’t know
and they go fast as we walk by
taking people to see people they might really miss
hey there darling, let’s go for a drive tonight
we’ll bring blankets, jackets and hats
if the car breaks down we’ll take a nap
i wouldn’t worry about it being too cold
