Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – La Costa Brava Lyrics 18 years ago
he said in an interview that this song is kind of a response to shake the sheets, which was really intense and was about picking yourself up off the ground, etc.

he just realized he needed to take a break, and that's this song.

Bomb the Music Industry! – The Soul Crushing Northeast Lyrics 18 years ago
"I want to drink this way,
But I'll just get pissed at the bar."

I think this is "i want to drink this away, but i'll just get ditched at the bar."

also "than to ??? like anybody." = "than to trust like anybody"

one more: "Or else you don't know where" = "or else you'll go nowhere."

The Weakerthans – Virtute the Cat Explains Her Departure Lyrics 18 years ago
This song makes me cry every time I hear it.

Anyone have any ideas what "Virtute" is (besides a cat, obviously)? I always read it as "virtue," but I realize that that's not correct.

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – Where Have All The Rudeboys Gone Lyrics 19 years ago
@ onetinsoldier

Simmer Down was performed by Bob Marley and the Wailers, accompanied by the Skatalites, who were pioneers of the ska movement, so of course that song is ska.

Desmond Dekker, he's the original rude boy.
