she finds a seat, takes a drag on a cigarette, leans back on the wall
she does her best to keep it hidden, not to be so conspicuous and all
he looks around for a ring or a man, sees neither and makes his move
before he can speak, she puts her number in his hand and says, baby, you know what to do
low lights goin' down
nobody's around
she went until the risin' of the sun
and that was how his lonely heart was won
she wags her tail, slithers like a snail over to the kitchen the next day
he's sittin' high and mighty, lookin' at his aphrodite, searchin' for the words to say
but a pain strikes his chest as he looks to the west while the words, they fade away
the mighty king is stricken by a perilous condition on a sunny summer day
low lights goin' down
nobody's around
she went until the risin' of the sun
and that was how his lonely heart was won
do it to me baby one more time, mama, do it one more time
give it to me baby one more time, mama, do it one more time
do it to me baby one more time, mama, do it one more time
low lights goin' down
nobody's around
she went until the risin' of the sun
and that was how his lonely heart was won

The Absurd began as a folk rock collaboration between Ben & Josh. Ben's singer-songwriter artistic whims are expressed thusly herein.
Check out Ben's newest track, "The Thin Ice" The Absurd
supported by 12 fans who also own “Queen of the Hyrcanian Rainforest”
For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art?
But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
