about

A fast 60’s beach-rock jam with a twisted, jealous edge.

lyrics

You didn't have to hurry
You, ya didn't have to worry
If everybody would wait up for you they always did
Let's start at 8 instead of 6

You, ya didn't have to wonder
You, ya didn't have to ponder
If everybody was in love with you, they always were
They always were

Well you couldn't know
The way I wanna feel
Know the hand I gotta deal
You say I'm insane
You wanna bop me in the brain
That I'm too tame
I guess I'll shoot you dead
Pump me full of lead

You didn't have to scurry
You always looked so blurry
'Cause I'd get drunk to forget all the friends you got, it's true
Uh-oh I think I'm getting loose

You didn't have to wonder
You, ya didn't have to ponder
If everybody was in love with you, they always were
They always were

Well you couldn't really know
The way I wanna feel
Know the hand I gotta deal
You say I'm a mess
You say I got bad breath
Now I wanna do meth
I guess I'll shoot you dead
Pump me full of lead

You, ya didn't have to wonder
You, ya didn't have to wonder
You, ya didn't have to wonder
You, ya didn't have to wonder
You say I'm insane
You wanna bop me in the brain
That I'm too tame
I guess I'll shoot you dead
Pump me full of lead

about

Mary Shelley Brooklyn, New York

Punk music you can dance to. That’s what you get from the genre-hopping, instrument-swapping members of Mary Shelley. Post- punk rhythms are imbued with elements of dance/disco beats, shoegaze, hip-hop and more, while influences stretch across generations, sounds and styles. Always, the electric 4-piece scraps rules in favor of creative impulse, ensuring each new song sounds nothing like the last. ... more
