lyrics
The token back to Brooklyn fell between the grating
And we're just watching it sinking
The fare went up to one hundred dollars
And we can never go home again
The bill collector's drinking lighter fluid
And says he'll tell our parents
Our feet start running at a furious pace
But we can't get away
supported by 10 fans who also own “Token Back To Brooklyn”
This is the greatest album of all time. Every track is so perfectly placed together, are so brilliantly written and it all hits so hard and feels amazing on my ears. The album art looks so fun and creative, and Eyewishes is the best lemon demon song ever. 12/10 album. Fennec
