lyrics

I was inclined to believe the numbers
It got so easy to get bored of all the answers
And now we’re left to react to
A wind-up prick on a dictator kick

Past time to pretend this ain’t my nation
Take to the streets and watch the standard deviation
I’ll never cash that check
I’m a nervous wreck, now I'm president sick

I’m tired, sick and tired of letting it go
The law of every average I know.
Had enough of this idiot reality show
The law of every, the law of every average I know.

So I’ll hide the time until November
Drunk on the nightmare of a past I can’t remember
All out of balance, check
It’s the truth that’s sick, it’s an executive wreck

I’m tired, sick and tired of letting it go
The law of every average I know.
Had enough of this idiot reality show
The law of every, the law of every average I know.

Average, I know.

about

Foxhall Stacks Washington, D.C.

Guitarist Jim Spellman (Velocity Girl, High Back Chairs) assembled these DC veterans in late 2015.

Pete Moffett drummed for Government Issue and Wool before joining singer/guitarist Bill Barbot (Jawbox) in Burning Airlines. Decent pedigree, this lot. ... more

My only complaint is there are too many great tracks. Too hard to pick just 1 favorite. wigilo

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
