"The Illusionist"
A grown man crying in the driver seat
of a car that's registered to me
can pull a tablecloth out without breaking a plate,
but when you pull out the rug I'll land flat on my face.
With a flick of my wrist, and some pupil dilation
I could solve all my problems, but not the equations
or reach in this hat and pull out a prescription
to deal with my issues, cause I've got subscriptions.
White doves, red herrings.
Black lungs, dead canaries.
There's nothing up my sleeve,
there's nothing in my pockets. I'm in too deep to leave.
A delivery boy in borrowed dress shoes
sweating his way through this interview
in a shirt that his mother had to help him iron,
whose particular skill set won't help him get hired.
She's in distress, but I'm in Nebraska
and I called her back, but it could have been faster.
When I snap my fingers her smile will disappear...
Abra-fucking-cadabra.
And I would saw myself in half
if it would warrant a room full of claps.
Yeah, I would saw myself in half
for half a bar full of half-hearted pats on the back.
White doves, red herrings.
Black lungs, dead canaries.
There's nothing up my sleeve,
there's nothing in my pockets. I'm in too deep to leave.
And that's fine by me.
We've been known to have jacuzzi parties a few hours before shows with these jerks which lead to throwing up in taco bell parking lots a lot right before we play. Our favorite people. This EP is rad. Moonraker
This album is amazing. If you're a fan of early Dashboard Confessional or Matchbox 20 before they sold out, definitely check this out. Also If you like Bojack Horseman you might understand this album Moonraker
The Scandals are one of those bands that when they blow up, all of us who have known them will just say "Well yeah, duh. Of course." Rad punk rock with catchy "why-didnt-I-write-that" choruses to sing Moonraker
supported by 13 fans who also own “The Illusionist”
These guys are awesome! I thought nothing could top "Fail Better" but this might just have done it.
Just buy this and everything else they've done. 🙂 davepunker
Pitch-perfect math rock from Kaneohe, Hawaii charges forward on raw, ragged emotion. A treat for fans of Polvo and Pardoner. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 27, 2018
