about

The 'last' song on Amateur Anthropologist's "The Winter EP". This version is extremely cut down from the live version, which usually includes freeform outbursts, and portions of songs such as Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel" and the surf classic "WipeOut".

lyrics

It's so hard to walk backwards, when I wear my shout shaw shoes.
Yeah, it's so hard to walk backwards, when I wear my shout shaw shoes.
Am I the only one, girl? Or do you feel this way too?

When I first met my baby, I said "little girl, let me be your man."
Yeah when I met my baby, I said "little girl, let me be your man."
She said "you can be number seven, but tell the world we're just friends."

My mama told me, "son, you best grow up to be a man."
My mama told me, "boy, grow some balls and be a man."
So I took that advice to heart girl, and now before you is where I stand.

When I walk down the streets now, everybody knows my name.
Yeah when I walk down the streets girl, everybody knows my name.
I tip my hat and say "hello there", the good lord says treat everybody the same.

I gave my baby. The 99th degree. She jumped up and threw a pistol, down on me. Stop breaking down. Stop breaking down. I swear to God I'm gonna bust your brains out, baby. You make me loose my worried man.

It's so hard to walk backwards, when I wear my shout shaw shoes.
Yeah, it's so hard to walk backwards, when I wear my shout shaw shoes.
Am I the only one, girl? Or do you feel this way too?

"These young, rock 'n' romp upstarts are doing it in Detroit the hard way. Starting at the Token playing to staff, they've since kept company with Danny Kroha and played all the city's venerable venues, buzzing up the town. They blend punk and pop, but aren't pop punk." - Metro Times Detroit ... more
