Tonight’s song comes from the brilliant compilation album Guilt By AssociationGuilt By Association reviews
, released by Engine Room Recordings. The concept of the album is the bringing together of indie artists to record a cover of their guilty pleasure pop song. Notable tracks from this album include Devendra Banhart’s cover of Don’t Look Back in AngerDon’t Look Back in Anger reviews and Petra Haden’s take on the Journey classic Don’t Stop BelievingDon’t Stop Believing reviews. The song I chose to highlight comes from the American artist Goat (Andy Rosen), and is a cover of the Fall Out Boy hit Sugar We’re Going Down.
Am I more than you bargained for yet
I’ve been dying to tell you anything you want to hear
Cause that’s just who I am this week
Lie in the grass, next to the mausoleum
I’m just a notch in your bedpost
But you’re just a line in a song
(A notch in your bedpost, but you’re just a line in a song)
Drop a heart, break a name
We’re always sleeping in, and sleeping for the wrong team
We’re going down, down in an earlier round
And Sugar, we’re going down swinging
I’ll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
[x2]
Is this more than you bargained for yet
Oh don’t mind me I’m watching you two from the closet
Wishing to be the friction in your jeans
Isn’t it messed up how I’m just dying to be him
I’m just a notch in your bedpost
But you’re just a line in a song
(Notch in your bedpost, but you’re just a line in a song)
Drop a heart, break a name
We’re always sleeping in, and sleeping for the wrong team
We’re going down, down in an earlier round
And Sugar, we’re going down swinging
I’ll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
[x2]
Down, down in an earlier round
And Sugar, we’re going down swinging
I’ll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
We’re going down, down in an earlier round (Take aim at myself)
And Sugar, we’re going down swinging (Take back what you said)
I’ll be your number one with a bullet (Take aim at myself)
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
We’re going down, down (down, down)
Down, down (down, down)
We’re going down, down (down, down)
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
We’re going down, down in an earlier round (Take aim at myself)
And Sugar, we’re going down swinging (Take back what you said)
I’ll be your number one with a bullet (Take aim at myself)
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
