| Sunset Rubdown – Coming To At Dawn Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
They've been playing a version of this live with the full band, and it's quite amazing. When I saw them, Spencer said this song was about getting too drunk and having to have your friends take care of you. |

| Okkervil River – Unless It's Kicks Lyrics | 18 years ago |

And my heart's all alive(?) For your hands to pluck off I think it's: and my heart's on a line for your hands to pluck off it sounds a little clearer on the bonus disc's acoustic version |

| Okkervil River – Savannah Smiles Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song is most likely about the porn star Savannah, also known as Shannon Wilsey. She had a lot of media attention in the early 90's surrounding her suicide. So this is probably Will's interpretation of how her father might have taken it when he found out his daughter was doing porn, or perhaps even her suicide. The itunes bonus track (Shannon Wilsey on the) Starry Stairs is supposed to be the sequel to this song, and is basically her life from Shannon's POV. The whole album is full of these pop culture references, and it makes for a really interesting listen because nearly every song refers to some real life event. |

| The Good Life – Lovers Need Lawyers Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This song seems a lot like a follow-up to "notes in his pocket." they both talk about being with someone, whom he met before, at a bar past last call. So Perhaps he got caught cheating or at least she suspects it and he's trying to explain his way out of it. just my two cents |

| Cursive – Into the Fold Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
To me, the last line sounds like something like "started to make plans for dinner" or "lambs for dinner" and instead of "i led him around the campus" I think it's "we walked up and down the campus" the words get lost in the mix, but I'll be trying to figure the rest out |
