Lyrics
Nothing is embarrassing
Have fun
Always wanted you to call me something
Always wanted you to call me something
Just ask me cause I really wanna be one, look like
Too much, I talk less
Oh you’re so blunt
And I act and I talk like I know you so good
All we wanted was to feel something
But you’ve been acting like I ain’t got nothing
I’ll be out far cause I really wanna ask you about living
I’m free to fall now
And I act and I talk like I know you so good
All I wanted was to feel something
Cause I think all in all you should save me
You should turn my way
You should turn my way
All I wanted was to feel something
Cause I think all in all you should save me
You should turn my way
Shouldn’t think before you speak, I tell you
You should know yeah you should know
Shouldn’t think before you speak, I tell you
Cause you look like you’re trying
You should know yeah you should know
I talk like I know you so good

The Radio Dept. released a new song “Your true name” out now via Just so! recordings.
They are playing a live show on January 29th at El Rey Theater in Los Angeles, CA.
Lyrics:
Any time now
They will force the door
Any time now
Any time
Just kick it right down
Pin us to the floor
Any time now
Any time
And they call you delusive
But I always knew your name
And they call you abusive
But I always knew your name
Past the frontline
Way beyond the gore
Biding time now
Biding time
Past expecting
We will reach that shore
Any time now
Any time
And they call you delusive
But I always knew your name
And they call you abusive
But I always knew your name
And they call you delusive
But I know you’ll never do me no harm
And they call you abusive
But I always knew your name
We were invited to select music for the Vinyl Junkies Record Swap, held at The Casbah on December 9th 2017. The setlist consists of music released in the 1970’s, 1990’s and from 2017. We played the last song by Death Eyes “Si la revancha fuera una opción” for Tony Reflex from The Adolescents.
