| Cass McCombs – The Executioner's Song Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| The more I look at the lyrics, the more I understand why it's called "The Executioner's Song". The song feels like it's about Cass's job as a musician. Regardless of how much he gets paid doing it (which judging by the lyrics isn't a huge amount), Cass is telling us he is in it for something more than the money. And despite how stressful it is, he's just happy to be able to do what he loves. The job he mentions via chorus could be anything that people consider a labor of love. | |
