HANDSOMEvid1

the debut video from seattle band Wine Dark Sea

lyrics:

THE HANDSOME

languid spokesmodels
in a gold paved parking lot
is what i dream of nightly
on this borrowed cot
my mother's such a handsome man
and i have got a daring plan you know

got so drunk that i
mistook a spittoon
for a wishing well
what a grisly honeymoon
my father's such a mixed up girl
but i am going to rule this world you know
go go

i went to see a working girl
she said
come back when you get
some more jam for your bread
now her sister's found a new career
playing clown in some cheerless rodeo
you know

some sucker said quote
"turn the other cheek"
but how when every day
feels like a week?
yeah brother this and brother that
don't brother me sir or i'll knock you flat, k bro?

but i could be your one true
special friend
as long as you don't mind
i'm a fucking scorpion
my mother's such a handsome man
and i have got a daring plan you know

…you know?
